Research on virtual manufacturing models of a new type of taper ball-end milling cutter
Based on the analysis of the difficulties in design and manufacturing and cutting edge curves of many kinds of revolving milling cutters, a design method is presented in this paper for a new type of cutting-edge. The general differential equation is given so that the cutting-edge, the three-grooves and the grinding wheel to grind can be satisfied. The actual grooves and cutting-edges of virtual manufacturing are presented. The general feeding speeds of grinding wheel used in 2-axis NC machining of the cutter were deduced. The virtual simulation of the taper ball-end cutter is carried out. It has been proved that the traditional problems in designing and manufacturing are solved successfully in this way, simultaneously the process is much simple for it can be formed only in one time elementarily.
Design and simulating for 5-axis whirling machine tool
Drew up 5-Axis whirling machine tool , innovative design project through apply virtual manufacturing. In simulation process, rigid bodies movement of dynamics simulating analysis on machine tool 5-coordinates movement principle, so that machine movement principle is verified; Secondly, kinematics simulation is achieved on the virtual digital prototype for checking mechanical components impact and interference as well as machine movement function.Design the electric principal axis, Really carried on again the dynamic state characteristic of the principal axis to imitate, verified the principal axis just degree.
Arc flash hazard assessment in the mining industry
When it comes to electrical safety in the workplace, arc flash has become the most prominent topic over the past decade. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA, including state chapters) is the only government body that recognizes NFPA-70E, Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace. However, OSHA does not have jurisdiction in mining operations. Electrical safety for the metal and nonmetal surface mining industry is covered by the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 30, Part 56, Subpart K (Electricity). The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) is responsible for enforcing electrical safety in mining operations. CFR Title 30 does not reference personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect electrical workers against arc flash hazards. This paper provides maintenance and safety personnel in surface Metal/Nonmetal mining operations with a step by step guide to implementing an electrical safety program that meets the requirements of MSHA, CFR Title 30 and NFPA-70E.
