Abstract
A band feeding process, a band feeding system and a plant for the production of cores with stacked grain-oriented laminations for transformers are disclosed. The plant includes a processing unit to cut a band made of a ferromagnetic metal material, in particular made of magnetic silicon steel, so as to obtain one or more laminations. The processing unit includes an input, and the plant includes a feeding system having plurality of feeding stations. Each feeding station is configured to feed a respective band to the input.
Claims20
A feeding process for a plant for production of cores with stacked laminations for transformers, the plant comprising a processing unit and a feeding system, the processing unit having an input, the feeding system comprising a plurality of feeding stations, each feeding station configured to feed a respective band to the input, the feeding process comprising the steps of:
- feeding to the input a band coming from a selected feeding station of the plurality of feeding stations;
- and
- cutting, by means of said processing unit, the band from the selected feeding station, wherein the band is made of a ferromagnetic metal material so as to obtain one or more laminations.
A feeding system to feed a band for a production of cores with stacked laminations for transformers, comprising:
- a plurality of feeding stations;
- an exchange unit, wherein said feeding stations are connected in parallel to the exchange unit;
- a processing unit having an input, wherein the exchange unit feeds a band selected from a plurality of bands fed by said plurality of feeding stations to the input;
- and
- a plurality of guides, each guide conveys one of the plurality of bands from a respective feeding station to the exchange unit, wherein the exchange unit connects a guide chosen from the plurality of guides to the input.
