Design of Three-Dimensional Parallel Vibration Casting Machine

Abstract:

In order to reduce casting defects and improve casting quality, the author has developed a three-dimensional parallel vibration casting machine based on parallel mechanism. The paper introduces the three-dimensional parallel vibration casting machine in structure composition and functional properties, the casting machine degree of freedom of excitation mechanism is calculated, its motion performance is analyzed, and the kinematics equations are established. The designed casting machine achieves support and excitation functional separation of moving parts which takes complete decoupling of hybrid mechanism 2PRRR-P (2R ) as excitation mechanism, realizing flask vibration along the X, Y, Z three directions. Test results show that, the casting machine can significantly improve casting quality, raise labor productivity, save casting raw materials, and reduce the production costs.
