Abstract This paper presents some of the theoretical-experimental research carried out by the authors on the occasion of the remaking of a heavy vertical lathe intended for the processing of diameters up to 10,000 mm. Considering this dimension, for vertical lathes with a single mount, there is the question of reducing the deformation (fall) of the mobile traverse. In the paper some of the calculations and mathematical models used by the authors are presented in order to determine how to reduce deformations along with the experimental results.

 

Key words: heavy vertical lathe, fall compensation, mechanical-hydraulic compensation systems.

Abstract: The only value that an organization will ever create for its stakeholders is the value associated with customers or comes from its customers, both the existing clients as well as the ones acquired in the near future. To remain competitive, the organizations must determine ways to keep their clients for longer, grow them into more significant customers while making them more profitable. This research paper will focus on ways such organizations can gain more focus on their customers. Indeed, some high demanding clients might not be profitable, but the challenge is that many organizations have no means of reporting the customer profitability analysis to support this rationale. The organizations' lack the proper and consistent managerial accounting structures can make available more reports on the 65 customer's profitability, and this becomes more challenging because the organizations have no way of making verification of the profitable and unprofitable customers. The research explains how an organization can use activity-based accounting to trace the source of the consumption of the company expenses. ABC enhances accuracy since it employs several phrases to track as well as segment all the resources expenditures as calculated costs through a system assignment of the costs into the value of the closing objects.

 

Keywords: customers, profitability, organisation, activity-based accounting, chief finance officer, profits, wind industry.

Abstract: The helical pumps with axial worm (progressive cavity pumps) are frequently used in oil industry, for circulating liquids in mixtures with solid abrasive particles. The pump worm has helical shape, with one or more lobes. Due to its complexity, this worm manufacturing is a challenging problem. In the paper, it is suggested an algorithm laying onto the “Minimum distance” method, which enables the profiling of the rack-tool generating this type of ordinate whirl of helical surfaces. The main steps of the algorithm are: the definition of the hypo-cycloid specific to pump rotor, the finding of the rotor functional profile, equidistant to the hypo-cycloid, and the finding of the rack-tool profile in the axial section of the worm. A numerical sample of implementing the developed algorithm, in the case of a rotor with four lobes, performed with the help of a dedicated MatLab soft application, is also presented, together with graphical representations of the rotor transversal section and of the corresponding rack-tool profile.

 

Key words: axial helical pumps, multi-lobes rotor, rack-tool profiling, ordinate whirl of surfaces, minimum distance method.

Abstract: Industry 4.0 as advanced model of technology systems automation, based on the convergence of technologies that make up the concept of intelligent manufacturing, integrated with information and communication technologies that have been applied in a new way (cloud computing, big data analytics and AI), and based on distributed management. This approach has brought unprecedented opportunities to technology systems, from resource levels to supply chains, which are becoming more flexible, responsive to customer demands, and product quality is without defects. On the other hand, planning and control production in this model must have a specific concept that defines it. Also, model has its own development, and the subject of this paper is the analysis and synthesis of the follow two models: Industry 4.0 (I4.0) and enterprise resource planning (ERP), as a whole of intelligent manufacturing. The paper also provides ours research model for the ERP model developing the Industry 4.0 concept, for Serbian manufacturing SMEs.

 

Key words: Industry 4.0, ERP, Smart factory, Smart ERP.

Abstract: This paper refers to the design of the control of an omnidirectional mobile platform, by implementing a PID controller having as input signal a gyroscope sensor, which will indicate in real time the orientation angle of the platform. The use of this system follows the position and angle of orientation to control the angular and linear speed of the omnidirectional robot. A comparison is made between the system with direct control and the one with the PID control algorithm based on the gyroscope sensor. The entire system is controlled by an Arduino Mega 2560 development board, based on an Atmega microcontroller. Following the tests performed, the controller presented in this paper offers an optimal solution to minimize the differences between the reference and the output trajectory. The obtained results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in the control of omnidirectional mobile platforms.

 

Key words: PID controller, omnidirectional robot, gyroscope sensor, Arduino Mega.

Abstract: Abrasive jet machining is part of the broader group of unconventional machining processes based on using the effects of impact between moving particles with the workpiece surface. In some experiments aimed at establishing empirical mathematical models to highlight the influence of process input factors on the values of surface roughness parameters, it was found that there are possible correlations between the values of surface roughness parameters taken into account. Usually, in the classical machining processes, it is preferred to use empirical mathematical models of the power function type. Starting from the hypothesis of a correlation between the values of some roughness parameters of the surfaces obtained by abrasive jet machining and preferring this time the use of empirical mathematical models selected by the computer program as more appropriate to the experimental results, graphical representations were made to illustrate the influence of the values of the angle of inclination of the abrasive jet, of the distance between the nozzle of orientation of the abrasive jet to the workpiece and respectively of the average size of the abrasive particles on the values of the considered surface roughness parameters. These results, together with the determination of the values of some correlation coefficients, confirmed the existence of good correlations between the values of the surface roughness parameters taken into consideration.

 

Keywords: abrasive jet machining, experimental research, surface roughness parameters, empirical mathematical models, correlation parameter.
