Application of Modern Machinery Design Method in Mine Machinery Design

Rotordynamic Design Audits of Amb Supported Machinery

Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are a mature bearing technology that is being applied to many new turbomachines. They have become the bearing of choice for most new turboexpander applications. They are seen as a key enabling technology for compact, high speed, high power density direct-drive generators and turbomachinery. As more and more units are fielded, it will become important that end-use...

Streamlining the Design of Packaging Machinery

Robot prototyping in the design of food processing machinery

Purpose – Aims to show how robots can be used to prototype and prove key handling operations during the design of food processing machines. This can reduce both development time and costs. Design/methodology/approach – A number of examples of the use of robots during the design of food processing machinery are presented in the areas of product handling, product manipulation and product packing....

Machinery Optimal Layout Design of a Production System with the Aim of Reducing Transportation Costs Using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm

In this study, solutions for machinery layout with the aim of reducing transportation costs will be discussed. To do this, imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA), which is a very complicated and effective meta-heuristic algorithm is introduced. In the offered algorithm, different kinds of machinery layout are considered in single-row as country and then the best possible layout is developed ba...
