Development of Filament Winding Machine for Producing Round Shapes with Different Fiber Reinforcements

In recent years, fiber reinforced composite structures have become an important engineering subject because they are preferred due to their high strength / weight and stiffness / weight ratios in many industrial fields such as aerospace, construction, defense, aviation, automotive and energy. Although different methods are present to produce of these materials, the most reliable way is the filament winding technique. The basic principle of the filament winding technique is based on that the fiber reinforcement impregnated by resin is wrapped on a rotary mandrel using carriage translation and mandrel rotation motions. In this study, a filament winding machine having 2-axis motion was designed and constructed for the fabrication of different types of fiber reinforced composite pipes. The machine is capable of producing specimens in different design parameters such as dimensions up to 750 mm length and 250 mm diameter, different winding angles for hoop, helical and polar winding types. The fiber reinforced specimens were manufactured according to different winding angles, fiber reinforcements and cross sections.

Farklı Elyaf Takviyeleri ile İçi Oyuk Şekiller Üretmek İçin Elyaf Sarma Makinesi Geliştirmesi

Son yıllarda, elyaf takviyeli oyuk kompozit yapılar, havacılık, inşaat, savunma, uzay, otomotiv ve enerji gibi birçok endüstriyel alanda sağladıkları yüksek dayanım/ağırlık ve direngenlik/ağırlık oranlarından dolayı tercih edilmeleri nedeniyle önemli bir mühendislik konusu haline geldi. Bu malzemelerin üretilmesinde farklı yöntemler mevcut olmasına rağmen, en güvenilir yöntem filament sarım tekniğidir. Filament sarım tekniğinin temel prensibi, reçine ile emprenye edilen elyaf takviyesinin, taşıyıcı çeviri ve mandrel dönüş hareketleri kullanılarak döner bir mandrel üzerine sarılmasıdır. Bu çalışmada, farklı tiplerde fiber takviyeli kompozit boruların üretimi için 2 eksenli harekete sahip bir filaman sarma makinesi tasarlandı ve üretildi. Makine, numunelerin 750 mm uzunluğa ve 250 mm çapa kadar boyutlar, sarmal, kasnak ve kutup sargı tipleri için farklı sarım açıları gibi farklı tasarım parametrelerinde üretme kabiliyetine sahiptir. Elyaf takviyeli örnekler, farklı sarım açıları, elyaf takviyeleri ve enine kesitlere göre üretildi.
