facilitate the Inspection and Testing of Bright Bars during and after the Production Process, there is necessity to use the advanced Bright Bar Testing Machine. So, such a machine can be helpful for the measurement of various parameters of Bright Bar in a single unit.
Automobile Sector, the Bright Bar is the most important and popular product to achieve the various applications. During the production process of Bright Bars, the production process can be optimized by reducing the Production time and it can be achieved by minimizing the time required for Inspection & Testing, by using “An Apparatus Based Approach for Comprehensive Measurement of Bright Bar Parameters”. Traditionally, the measurement of Dimensional & Nondimensional Parameters is carried out by different instruments which increases fatigue of operator and the Inspection time and due to this the Production Time increases. So, to optimize the production time, the “Bright Bar Testing Machine” is more useful in the industry to facilitate the measurement of parameters and to increase the productivity. An apparatus developed for comprehensive measurement of Bright Bar Parameters is useful for checking the various Dimensional and Non-dimensional parameters such as Overall Diameter , Circularity Error, Straightness Error, Maximum Amount of Bending and the number of Surface Cracks on the Bright Bar. The details regarding Experimental Measurement and it’s calibration is carried out to ensure the accuracy and minimum error.
2. Design features of Bright Bar Testing Machine 2.1 The “Bright Bar Testing Machine” is designed on the model basis for the checking of various parameters such as – Overall Diameter of Bar, Circularity Error, Straightness Error, Maximum Amount of Bending and Number of Surface Cracks. Here, for checking the Overall Diameter of Bright Bar, the Optical System having IR-beam with Distance Measuring Sensor Unit GP2Y0A02YK0F is used. For the measurement of Circularity Error & Straightness Error, the “Dial Indicator with Magnetic Stand” is used at the left end of machine. Also, for the measurement of Amount of Bending of Bright Bar, another set of “Dial Indicator with Magnetic Stand” is used centrally on the machine. Also, for the checking of Surface Cracks on the Bright Bar, the UV-lamp Unit is used at another end of machine. The Foundation Frame completely supports the Bright Bar which is being rotated and moved over the Semi-circular Grooved Pulleys during testing.
Key Words: Overall Diameter, Circularity Error, Straightness Error, Amount of Bending, Number of Surface Cracks.
1.INTRODUCTION In today’s world, quality control or inspection is very essential to assure the compliance of product with respect to the product drawings, product specifications, material standards which are necessary so as to avoid the errors and defects in the final product. In every factory, the quality control programs are applied with inspection and testing of final products so as to ensure the quality level as per predetermined standards of the product. As per survey in the “Bright Bar Manufacturing Industries”, it is found that, in most of the industries the Bright Bars are checked by manual methods for the measurement of Overall Diameter, Circularity Error, Amount of Bending, etc and this
