TY - JOUR AU - Barilenko, V. AB - N. P. Ryabets and V. N. Barilenko UDC 621.791.042 At the M. V. Frunze Suma Engineering Works, a machine for cleaning and coiling welding wire (Fig. 1) was designed, built, and adopted. The machine consists of a welded bed with a cleaning mechanism, stacking mechanism, and drives mounted on it. The coil of wire (Fig. 2) is put on a rotating support. The free end of the wire is drawn through the cleaning device of the cleaning mechanism, the guide sleeve of the stacking mechanism, and fastened to a reel. A 6 mm diameter rope is wound round the wire. This rope tightly covers the wire and cleans it when the latter is drawn. Apart from the rope, cleaning cutters are mounted in the cleaning mechanism for a more thorough cleaning process of special wires. The stacking mechanism is driven by an electric motor, a belt transmission, and a reducing gear. Change wheels are mounted at the exit of the reducing gear in order to turn the cam of the mechanism for winding the wire onto the reel at a pitch which is equal to the diameter of the cleaned wire. The drive of the winding mechanism also consists TI - Machine for cleaning and coiling welding wire JF - Chemical and Petroleum Engineering DO - 10.1007/BF01144180 DA - 2005-01-28 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/machine-for-cleaning-and-coiling-welding-wire-ESqy9ncIXf SP - 995 EP - 996 VL - 5 IS - 12 DP - DeepDyve ER -
