Basic information about the project
Projekt schválený v rámci Výzvy na predkladanie žiadostí o projekt na podporu inovácií a rozvoja podnikania BIN 01 financovanej z Nórskeho finančného mechanizmu 2014-2021.
Goal of the project
The aim of the project is to develop technical solutions resulting in significant reduction of energy and material consumption, capital investments and production, operational and maintenance costs in the technological process of tyre bead manufacturing by re-designing tyre bead machinery produced by the applicant
The project consist of 3 activities:
Activity 1
Activity 2
Activity 3
Conceptual design of unified tyre bead making machinery series
- Design analysis of current equipment for bead winding
- Designing scalable winding systems extending present limits
- Unified design of wire accommodating systems
- Comprehensive bead winding process control system
Designing energy-efficient extrusion rubberising system
- Mathematical simulations of rubber flow in existing extrusion rubberising systems used in tyre bead making
- Mathematical simulations of rubber flow in extrusion systems rubberising with additional means enhancing pressure generation and rubber flow evenness
- Mathematical simulations of rubber flow in modified extrusion rubberising systems with reduced size of rubberising extruder
- mathematical simulations of rubber flow in modified multiple extrusion rubberising sys-tems
- Geometrical optimisation of rubberising dies
- Virtual prototype of an optimised extrusion rubberising system (the physical prototype of the optimised extrusion rubberising system will be realised by the applicant in parallel, but out of the project)
- Integration of the control system of the rubberising module into the comprehensive control system of the bead winding line
Implementation of Industry 4.0 principles and augmented / virtual reality
- Creating flexible methodology of complete condition monitoring
- Application of advanced analytical and prediction tools for analyses and interpretation of data obtained by condition monitoring
