Diseño y construcción de una máquina cortadora de materiales ferrosos y no ferrosos automatizada a implementar en el laboratorio de ingeniería de materiales de la Facultad de Mecánica

Abstract

The objective was the implementation of materials cutting machine for the theoretical-practical development in the Materials Engineering laboratory in the Faculty of Mechanics, the purpose of which was to automate a cutting machine to provide ease of use and safety to students and teachers who will use the machine to cut a metallographic specimen without losing the properties of the materials. The development of the work began with the analysis of the basic principle of cutting techniques, in the same way, the operation of the machine was analyzed allowing to identify the necessary parameters to be able to be automated and to achieve a machine of easy use providing safety to the operator, later the different cutting machines with different cooling systems and advances were analyzed, then, an automated system that was coupled to the different functions performed by the machine was made, during this analysis the construction of the automated cutting machine capable of cutting depending on the material (steel, iron, etc.) was carried out, the same that consists of an automated cutting machine that consists of an automatic cutting machine that can perform a cut depending on the material (steel, iron, etc.). ), the same that consists of a cooling system in the cut allowing to maintain the properties of the materials, ending with the obtaining of a cutter that performs a quality cut providing safety to the operator, therefore it is recommended to place a more rigid clamping system to cut materials of larger dimensions since in this way the efficiency of the machine is optimized and obtain greater security at the time of its operation.
