Optimization of energy losses in a certain class of woodworking machines

What is it about?

In this paper, the loss of kinetic energy in big band saw machines are examined. The main objectives of the study are formulated and the corresponding main tasks are solved. Expressions have been obtained to calculate the kinetic energy of the mechanical systems in the ideal and the real case. With the help of these expressions, the final dependencies for determining the energy losses for the studied class of machines were obtained. These dependencies show the influence of linear and angular inaccuracies. A number of optimization solutions have been proposed that allow calculating the values of both parameters that ensure a minimum value of energy loss.

Why is it important?

This research can be seen as a contribution to the contemporary knowledge on energy conservation and design of energy-saving machines. It may contribute to better understanding of these problems and prove useful for many researchers. In particular, the proposed approach can be used in the design of other classes of big woodworking machines, as well as in the study of energy losses for this class of machines.
