Optimal Design of a Magnetic Take-Up Roll for Amorphous Ribbon

Abstract:

Take-up roll is a key component employed in amorphous ribbon production line. The roll should supply enough adhesion fore to take up the flying ribbon with a high speed. In this paper, a novel magnetic take-up roll (MTUR) is proposed. Optimize the structure parameters with a finite element method to obtain enough and stable magnetic adhesion force (MAF). The different simulation models are established to calculate the performances of the MTUR. A prototype of the MTUR was manufactured and tested. Experiments prove that the optimal MTUR can generate MAF to overcome the resistant force that amorphous ribbon suffering in take-up process in certain air gap range
