1 TARIFF PULLEY AND BELT SYSTEM FOR PROFILE MOVEMENT IN ROLLING FORMING LINES TAHR İK MEKAN İZMASI Technical Area The invention is a gear and chain system developed for use in roll forming lines. Eliminating the old structure and replacing it with a pulley and belt system, easy and economical parts supply, clean It relates to the drive mechanism, which provides working conditions and ease of maintenance. State of the Art The machines used in rolling forming lines process metal strips into desired shapes and sizes. These are the commonly preferred systems for bringing them about. These machines generally consist of three main parts. It consists of: a feeding system that ensures the metal strips are fed into the machine in an orderly manner, and the metal... a roller system in which the processed products are shaped between successive cylinders and in specific dimensions cutting system. These systems play a critical role in production processes, and the 15 used... Structural and functional characteristics of drive mechanisms affect the efficiency and reliability of the production line. It has a direct impact on them. In current roll forming machines, the movement of the roller systems is generally done by gear and chain mechanisms. This is provided. In the gear mechanism, motor power is first transmitted to the main roller, then to the other rollers. This transfer takes place via gears, and the system has a complex structure. This is due to the fact that the use of numerous gears necessitates regular maintenance of these structures. It requires this and, in case of wear or breakage, it disrupts the operation of the system. Especially a If a gear breaks or a spare part is unavailable, production will stop completely. This is the reason. This situation not only leads to production losses, but also 25 This increases costs and negatively impacts workforce planning. In systems using chain mechanisms, the movement is achieved by motor power being transmitted through chains to gears. This is achieved through direct transmission. This structure eliminates the need for transmission gears. While it makes things easier, it also creates various disadvantages, such as the possibility of the chains breaking. The chains have 30 Regular tension adjustment and lubrication are required. In case of chain breakage, production... There are serious interruptions in the line, and these interruptions, as in gear mechanisms, affect time and This leads to cost losses. 2 In both systems currently in use, oil maintenance stands out as a fundamental requirement. This is the case. While lubrication is necessary to keep the mechanisms functioning, maintenance... Oils that leak during operation can create slippery and dangerous surfaces around the machine. This The situation poses a serious risk in terms of occupational safety. Operators working on these surfaces, This can lead to accidents such as slips and falls, and continuous efforts are needed to ensure workplace safety standards are met. This makes cleaning necessary. However, this process incurs additional labor and time costs. Because it requires this, it leads to inefficiency from a business perspective. In addition, the complex structures of gear and chain mechanisms make assembly and maintenance difficult. This complicates the processes and delays in parts supply disrupt production continuity. This causes significant financial losses, especially in facilities with high production volumes. This can be the reason. Furthermore, the continuous operation of the gears and chains used in these systems results in high... This leads to high levels of vibration and noise, which negatively impacts the comfort of the working environment. It has an effect. In conclusion, current drive systems have complex structures, high maintenance requirements, and parts... difficulties in procurement, occupational safety risks, and costly processes that reduce operational efficiency. It has significant disadvantages due to these reasons. These problems necessitate safer, cleaner production lines. developing new solutions to ensure it operates in an economical and sustainable way It requires. As a result, 20 that eliminates the disadvantages existing in the current technique. A new pulley and belt drive system for profile movement in rolling forming lines. The existence of a need and the inadequacy of current solutions necessitate an improvement in the relevant technical field. It has made it mandatory.
