Shafts of technological machines with combined supports

Abstract

This article discusses experimental studies of a saw cylinder (SC) composite shaft with combined support. We proposed a new design of the support that provides a reduction in the shaft. The article considers the influence of changing the parameters of the elastic element of the support of the composite shaft (CS) of the SC using the ANSYS software, calculates and analyzes the reaction forces of the supports for different parameters of the elastic elements, and also considers the effect on the stresses of the system, as well as the results of experimental and comparative tests in production conditions on the SC of the cotton gin machines with a composite bearing, where the parameters of the elastic element differ from each other by different elasticity. The fiberization process took place according to the established technological parameters. The experimental and standard SC models were compared during the experiment.
