Máquina Semiautomática para Lapidação de Válvulas Globo

Abstract

The present work is a machine project for aid in the maintenance of valves globe. To obtain the best acting of this valve type, the maintenance it should be accomplished periodically. However, some maintenance procedures, as the lapping procedure, it is usually accomplished manually, this that demands the worker's a lot of timework, besides could cause damages to his health. Therefore, was seen the need to turn the operation semiautomatic through the elaboration of the project with a coordinated walrus adapted to accomplish that repair type. For the project it was looked for to understand as the manual operation was accomplished, for then to identify the critical points of the problem, that could facilitate the lapping procedure with the machine. Besides, was seen the need that the machine was manufactured and mounted with easiness, using profiles and standardized structures and of easy use and maintenance. Software of drawing 3D was used, to facilitate the visualization of the whole system.
