Improved Design of Steel Pipe Transfer Device Turnover Mechanism

Abstract

In the steel pipe manufacturing industry, the steel pipe manufacturing process is completed by multiple processes. And on the automatic production line, the transfer process between steel pipe working procedure is realized by the steel pipe transfer device. The unreasonable structural design of related parts in the steel pipe transfer device will result in the failure of the steel pipe transfer process to proceed smoothly, which will directly affect the normal operation of steel pipe production line, resulting in steel pipe productivity’s decrease and causing losses to steel pipe manufacturers. This article proposes an improved design method of the turnover mechanism of transfer device between steel pipe manufacturing processes.
