dc.description.abstract |
Accumulator systems consist of a series of rolls arranged either vertically
or horizontally which are used in many sheet processing lines for the purpose of
storing up strip. Strip is stored so that when supply coils run out new coils can
be welded to the ends of old coils without stopping the entire line. Literature on
roll design is scarce because companies that have developed present design
practices are reluctant to offer this knowledge.
Given the fact that many rolls make up some accumulator systems, the
cheaper manufacturing costs associated with some designs would be very
desirable providing the design is acceptable. Much of the present design theory
is based on a static analysis assuming the load from the strip is evenly
distributed over the roll and there is negligible loss of load in the strip going from
one side of the roll to the other. A previous thesis done on this subject focused
on modeling the roll using finite element analysis, FEA, and making these same
assumptions. This research focuses on using FEA with nonlinear contact
elements located between the strip and roll in order to allow the software to
distribute the load from the strip to the roll. From the results of this analysis it will
be reasoned whether the present design assumptions concerning load transferal
are valid or not and a goal of this investigation is to verify or discount the
previous work that was done. |
