Experimental Research on Transmission Characteristics of Working Mechanisms for Servo Mechanical Presses

Abstract

In order to analyze the transmission characteristics of the knuckle-triangle working mechanism for servo mechanical presses, an experimental prototype was set up, and a wireless measurement system was developed, to measure the kinematic and dynamic characteristics of the working mechanism. The working principle of the dynamic measurement was expressed. The forming force applied to the slide was measured by a donut-shaped load cell. The driving torque applied to the crank was measured by a resistance strain gage. To collect the testing signals of the forming force and driving torque conveniently and synchronously, a wireless measure system based on WiFi is proposed. Moreover, when the input crank rotates at different angular speeds, the slide stroke curves were measured by a grating scale. The experimental results showed that the developed system can perform wireless measurement, and provide experimental basis for the analysis of kinematic and dynamic characteristics of the working mechanism with servo input.
