Repotenciación de la máquina pulidora utilizada para ensayos metalográficos del laboratorio de Ingeniería Mecánica de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato”
(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2019) Fiallos López, Fernando Andrés; Espín Lagos, Segundo Manuel
The technical work developed arises from the need to optimize time in the final polishing of metallographic specimens from the materials laboratory of the Mechanical Engineering career. Since the process is done manually which takes time when making metallographic analysis. It is for this reason that the polishing machine was repotended, for the elaboration of this work the standard ASTM E 3-01 standard guide for the preparation of metallographic samples was used, then the mechanical components of the rotating head, of the clamping disk of samples, cooling and drainage system. Complementing simulations in specialized software. Once the design of the mechanical components was carried out, the construction and assembly of this mechanism was developed according to the aforementioned parameters. Once the machine was built, a representative time reduction was obtained in the polishing of the sample, contributing to the development of laboratory practices of material.
