Description
Summary:The thin-walled stainless steel pipe was easy to be deformed in traditional method of cutting process, which can reduce the dimensional precision and surface quality. Therefore, it was urgent to solve this problem by a pipe cutting machine with high precision and high efficiency. In the process of stainless steel pipe cutting, the pipe was subjected to bending, shearing, torsion and other loads. In order to ensure its safety, it was necessary to conduct strength calculation and finite element analysis on the core components. Three dimensional model of pipe cutting machine was established by 3D software PRO-E and stress analysis was carried out by ANSYS finite element analysis software. Based on that, the deformation of steel pipe was simulated, the structure design of pipe cutting machine was guided and the support for further parameter analysis and improvement was provided in the cutting process.
