Simulación del prototipo de una máquina automatizada para dosificación y aplanado de masa para empanadas

Abstract

This project presents a simulation of a prototype of an automated machine for dosing and flattening mass for empanadas in craft machine. The simulation of the electromechanical system is based on the integration of electrical and mechanical processes under the domain of the Programmable Logic Controller responsible for controlling the process. This document defines the appropriate tools for

performing the programming algorithm design and the mechanical system design. LOGO SOFT COMFORT software was used to define the programming algorithm. SOLIDWORKS mechanical design software was used to sketch the design of mechanical parts of the system, and the use of CAD models provided by mechanical element manufacturers. For example: bearings, housings, bearings, radial insurance among others, and electrical elements. The design process begins with the determination of the material and geometry of the components that interact with the transmission of engine power. The inertial forces and the power consumed by each of the parts are then determined. Also, an analysis of the resistance of the mass to the deformation and the power needed to overcome that resistance is presented.
