Desenvolvimento de um protótipo controlador e manipulador de tensionamento mecânico

Abstract

The process of winding rotors for electric motors presents a constant need for tensioning. This work presents an alternative to an automated winding machine rotor to help solve the problem of tensioning wire winding. Describes the process of winding rotor and its characteristics, discusses the problems encountered in this process and what are the critical points that can be improved. The methodology explores the work involved variables in the process and develops a specific electronics circuit for amplifying a signal coming from a load cell, which simulates the tensioning process. The signal is then inserted into a logic programming in CLP (Ladder) that performs the control and manipulation of discrete outputs, which should adjust the tension of the wire winding rotor to an ideal value. The values, stats and results and how it is perceived main result in automatic mode, reducing the mean time to adjust tension of approximately 97% of lost time. Though some companies in the automated solution already exist, this work addresses and develops an efficient and cost effective for this problem.
