Projecção de um mecanismo de rolo que permita a produção do tubo de seis metros de comprimento directamente na linha de produção da empresa Capital Star Steel

Abstract

This report was prepared as part of the discipline of Professional Internship in a factory that produces welded steel pipes according to API standards for the oil and gas standards for the oil and gas industry. The aim is to optimise the production of the six metre long pipes which currently cannot be produced directly on the main production line, going through more time-consuming through more time-consuming secondary processes, resulting in delays in the delivery of orders. The solution presented in this work involves designing a device consisting basically of a roller with adjustable position, according to the different diameters of the tubes manufactured in the traineeship company, and a drive to regulate the height of the roller composed motor and a worm gearbox, this device will be assembled on the roller conveyor installed roller conveyor installed at the rear of the dynamic cutting saw The design of this device requires design calculations, which will give the dimensional requirements for the resistance to the solicitations suffered by the elements that form part of the mechanical assembly during its operation. To guarantee the effectiveness and safety of operation, we proceed to the elaboration of test calculations of the same elements. With the proposed solution, uninterrupted production without delays is expected, in addition to avoiding the need to assign part of the company's workforce to work on cutting eighteen metre pipes in three parts by torch followed by the rectification of the cut areas, which resulting in the partial stoppage of certain crucial activities due to a lack of personne.
