Diseño de un molino de pines.

Abstract

The present work of Curricular Integration consists of the design of the pin mill and contains components developed by Inti Rolando Casco Yánez and Edwin Amaguaña. A study was carried out to determine the most important characteristics of the mills, a person from the environment was consulted to gather information and determine through weighted criteria the most suitable alternatives of the mill. With this, we proceeded to design each of the assigned components, which are the following: the feeding system, the crushing system and the discharge system. The following elements of each system were designed: the rectangular tray-type hopper with a material flow regulator; the discs carrying pins with circular section pins; and the transition duct for the discharge of the ground material. Since the loads applied are relatively low, the engineering procedure was followed to calculate the safety factors in the design of the components; however, the safety factors found are high, which on the one hand guarantees the safety and correct operation of the equipment. It should be noted that there is no specific information to determine the power and specific parameters of the machine; therefore, similar mills and soft corn milling were taken as a reference. To complete the design, CAD models of the elements and their respective assembly were elaborated. The work ended with the elaboration of assembly and exploded drawings of the pin mill.
