Introduction
Feeding system is an integral part of production line in factory, which makes sure the material feeded timely and correctly. This article mainly discusses the structure principle and maintenance of feeding system.
Structure Principle
The structure of a basic feeding system includes drive motor, transmission part, mounting component, supporting component and guide component.
The drive motor is the primary component in the system, which is used to drive the transmission part, such as gears and belts, to move the material feeded. There are different types of motor for different application, for example, servo motor, DC motor and AC motor.
The transmission part of the feeding system is mainly composed of gears, belts and pulleys. The transmission part of the drive motor and the other components, including conveying elements, mounting components and supporting components, are interconnected to move the material feeded. The choice of transmission part depends on the speed, accuracy and load of the system.
The mounted component of the feeding system mainly supports the whole system and also has important effects on the accuracy and stability of the system. There are various types of mounted components, such as bolts and screws, which are used to hold the system in an ideal position and make sure the system moves smoothly.
The supporting component is the abutment to the material feeded, which is usually made of stainless steel or aluminum alloy. There are different types of supporting component based on the application.
The guide component is used to make sure the material feeded along the right path and prevent drooping of material during feeding. It also helps keep accurate feeding accuracy and line speed.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance of the feeding system is necessary for its smooth operation. The most important step in maintaining the feeding system is to ensure proper lubrication of its parts. Proper lubrication will ensure that the system runs efficiently and prevents wear and tear of components due to friction.
In addition to lubrication, periodic checking of the mounting components and the transmission part is required. The mounting components should be checked for their tightness, so as to prevent any serious structural errors and make sure the system can work stably. The transmission part should also be checked for its efficiency and the parts should be replaced if necessary.
Finally, all the components of the feeding system, including the drive motor, transmission part, mounting component, supporting component and guide component, should be cleaned regularly to remove any dust, dirt or debris that can cause breakage or malfunction of the system.
Conclusion
The feeding system is an important part of the production line and its structure principle and proper maintenance can ensure the system runs smoothly and efficiently. The structure of a basic feeding system includes drive motor, transmission part, mounting component, supporting component and guide component, and all components of the system need to be maintained regularly.
