Abstract

Manufacturing process costs can be reduced by providing the mechanization of labor-intensive works such as construction and logistic operations in profile rolling. Although there are certain manual and semi-automatic machines available for the production of stirrups on constructions, using of physical strengths can not be eliminated, and these machines can not be used effectively for the production of steel profile bundle tie. In this study, it is aimed to design, analyze and manufacture of a functional machine based on hydraulic and automation system which has the flexibility to perform not only the production of bundle tie used in the transporting processes of the hot rolled steel profiles but also the stirrups used in construction sectors. The required process times for material feeding - straightening, bending, cutting and twisting operations were calculated. In line with the calculations, drive and transport mechanisms were designed and the motor-reducer pair was selected and the hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic power unit were dimensioned by using numerical engineering calculations. In order to validate the torque requirements of the motor-reducer groups which are calculated by using numerical engineering calculation methods, finite element method supported bending analyzes are performed and torque-time curves were obtained and the drive systems of the designed mechanisms are verified. Stress-time diagrams of Grade-75 rods, which are the raw material of bundle-tie production, are also obtained during the validation of the drive systems by finite element method supported analyzes. The bending regions of the bars were examined on the basis of the stress-strain diagram and the plastic forming capabilities of the process are evaluated. By this means, applying of excessive plastic deformation of the workpiece is prevented and optimizing of the final product's mechanical behavior is provided. By using the data obtained within the scope of the study, a flexible and functional structured machine was designed and manufactured which can perform many kinds of plastic deformation processes successfully.
