Mechanical GRINDING MACHINE
SYNOPSIS
The Machine we designed and fabricated is used for grinding any shape of object
like Circular, Rectangular, and Polygon. In our project grinding machine is used to
grinding the different types of material. The grinding machine is rotated by the single
phase induction motor. Hence our project namely grinding machine is a Special type of
Machine. According to the type of material to be grind, the grinding tool can be changed.
This project gives details of grinding various shapes and sizes of components.
This machine can be widely applied in almost all type of industries. By varying the pulley
sizes I can get a high end speed of over 10,000 rpm if needed. The only change I would
make is to have a totally enclosed motor to keep out the grit.
INTRODUCTION
Our project is design and fabrication of auto charging grinding machine. It is used
to grind the machining surfaces to super Finish and accuracy. The principle parts of this
attachment are main body, motor with pulley, bearings, rope pulley and alternator etc.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
This machine is fixed on the work table, where the compound rest. Where the
motor is on, the abrasive grinding stone and the roller wheel will be rotated, on the RPM
of about. A.C motor which is coupled to the generator and grinding machine with the
help of belt drive as shown in diagram.GENERATOR maybe a geared motor.
ADVANTAGES
1. The machine is compact and rigid in size.
2. This project is non-conventional project
3. Maintenance is less.
4. It can be used on any place of small grinding application
5. By varying the pulley diameter the speed of the abrasive stone to be
changed.
DISADVANTAGES
1. Initial cost of the project is high
APPLICATIONS
1. Grinding outside the job in any size of body can be done.
2. As the feed is given automatic, 0.8 micron finish may be achieved.
3. By changing the grades of abrasive grinding stone it can be used to
grind the carbon steel, Alloy steel and stainless steel etc.
FIELD OF APPLICATION
Wherever grinding finish is required it can be used. For example, outer dia of
spindle of varies machines.
