MELHORIA EM UM DISPOSITIVO DE MOVIMENTAÇÃO LINEAR APLICADO AO PROCESSO DE SOLDAGEM MIG/MAG

Abstract

This work aims to present some improvements made in a linear motion device present in the welding laboratory of the Centro Universitário do Sul de Minas, applied to the MIG/MAG welding type, to make the system operational for the use of students. and teachers in the laboratory of the educational institution. Mechanized welding has a great application in the field of mechanical engineering and is increasingly applied in industrial processes, to keep all welding parameters fixed, thus providing more reliability and quality in the weld performed. Some improvements were made to the system, such as the creation and installation of rails for the linear sliding of the device, removing external interferences in the application of a weld, standardization of the device movement speed values ​​and the creation of an operational instruction for its use. equipment correctly. The objectives with the improvements were achieved and some limitations in the equipment were observed, bringing suggestions to solve them.
