Diseño y construcción de un molino de bolas tipo Attritor con un sistema de refrigeración para aplicaciones de pulvimetalurgia para los laboratorios de la Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica de la Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica de la Universidad Técnica de Ambato

Abstract

This Technical Titling Project focuses on the design, construction and operation testing of an attritor-type ball mill for obtaining powders and alloys from metal chips, acquiring information about the process of powder metallurgy, data and characteristics of the material and using, selection weights of alternatives, criteria such as design and calculation corresponding to the most relevant parts of the milling. As a basis is the analysis of the grinding parameters with the attritor mill should be recorded, such as the turning speed, contamination of the powders due to the material, temperature control and grinding time. Continuing with the selection and weighting of the operating systems in the machine being valued according to weighting criteria such as reliability, maintainability, assembly and price of each of the alternatives to subsequently be calculated valued with its reliability factor. Finally, we proceed to the construction and assemble of parts and elements of the machine being these built and others acquired. One of the most relevant the frequency inverter because it regulates the turning speed and prevents the engine from suffering damage in case of jams and then goes through the operating tests, obtaining the expected results in the mechanical grinding.
