Modelamiento en un entorno virtual de la celda de manufactura smc- fms -200

Abstract

The need to improve teaching conditions and facilitate learning by students of careers has led to the development and use of flexible manufacturing cells by institutions of higher education; in Colombia the use of these tools has been implemented with greater force, as in the case of the University Francisco José de Caldas with available cell commercially known as FMS - 200 consists of six workstations that perform the process mounting a rotation system. The objective of this project is to provide degree cell manufacturing which is at the Technological faculty in a virtual environment, where you identify each of the workstations with their respective sub-assemblies, to provide teachers and students of a tool for the development of the training class, in addition to the modeling station is delivered to the power base for the development of projects related to manufacturing cell. For the project was due to perform a thorough search of information on the cell, its elements and components, runs them and how they interact for assembly rotation system composed of 5 parts, a base or body , a bearing, a shaft, a cover and screws to hold the elements. The step to follow was the modeling of the elements by means of a tool of computer-aided design CAD (Computer-Aided Design for its acronym in English), in which the modeling of each of the sub-assemblies are first realized up each assembly station and all subsequently performed to form the manufacturing cell. Finally the Siemens NX 8.5 software was implemented to perform motion simulation Station 1 power base or body, where you can distinguish each of the steps are carried out within the process in operation manufacturing cell that corresponds with the time and sequence in which the actual cell in the laboratory of the University works. With the project modeling of the cell and each of its stations are managed in a virtual environment, which can be consulted to identify their components by offering students and teachers lecture to the cell as a working tool, further it has an adequate basis for the development of future projects related to manufacturing cell information. In the project a section is taken to make a small and summarized instructions on the method for simulating movement through NX 8.5 software, using their specialized module for this purpose.
