Flywheel press machine is a common mechanical equipment, mainly used in industrial applications such as metal forming, processing and pressing. Its working principle mainly involves the storage and release of kinetic energy of the flywheel. The following is the basic working principle of the flywheel press:
Working principle
Flywheel energy storage: The flywheel press machine is equipped with a large flywheel, which is connected to the motor through a belt or gear when the motor is started. The motor drives the flywheel to rotate, and the flywheel stores kinetic energy during the rotation.
Switch control: When pressing or forming operations are required, the control system will send a signal to the flywheel press, the motor will stop working, and the flywheel will start to release the stored kinetic energy.
Pressing action: The rotation of the flywheel drives a connecting rod mechanism, which converts the rotational motion of the flywheel into linear motion, pushing the slide of the press downward.
Applying pressure: The slide applies pressure during the descent process to complete the stamping, forming or other processing operations of the metal. At this time, the workpiece to be processed can be placed on the workbench of the press.
Return stroke: Once the pressing is completed, the slide will return to the initial position through the action of spring or gravity, ready for the next pressing operation.
Cyclic process: The whole process is a cycle, the flywheel continuously charges and releases energy to achieve continuous work.
Main features
High efficiency: The kinetic energy storage of the flywheel enables the press to release a large amount of energy in a short time, improving work efficiency.
Stability: The mass and rotation speed of the flywheel provide stable power output, which helps to ensure the processing quality.
Strong adaptability: It is suitable for the processing and forming of a variety of metal materials and is widely used in the automotive, aviation, home appliances and other industries.
Through the above principles, the flywheel press machine can achieve an efficient and stable metal processing process, and is one of the indispensable equipment in industrial production.
