Adjustable roll

The burden must have a definite sohdification temperature to assure proper pickup from the feed pan. This limitation can be overcome by side feeding through an auxiliary rotating spreader roll. Apphcation hmits are further extended by special feed devices for burdens having oxidation-sensitive and/or supercoohng characteristics. The standard double-drum model turns downward, with adjustable roll spacing to control sheet thickness. The newer twin-drum model (Fig. ll-55b) turns upward and, though subject to variable cake thickness, handles viscous and indefinite solidification-temperature-point burden materials well. 

Automatic control devices. Modern applications often require automatic control devices which correlate and adjust roll force, gap, and drive motor amperage as well as amperage of the force feeder motor(s). While many different systems are conceivable, a few will be considered to demonstrate the philosophy of such controls.

The rolling operations that foUow take place first on hot (95°C) differential-speed roUs which dry and coUoid the paste and convert it iato sheet form, and then on even-speed roUs which produce smoothly surfaced propellant sheets ia which all iagredients have been uniformly iacorporated. The roU gap ia the differeatial roUs is adjustable to produce sheets of various thicknesses, and rolling is continued until the moisture is reduced to a predetermined level, usually less than 0.5%. The sheet is then cut off the roU. Differential rolling is potentially hazardous, and fires are not uncommon, although detonations are not apt to occur. Operations are conducted by remote control. 

A web of molten plastic is pulled from the die into the nip between the top and middle roUs. At the nip, there is a very small rolling bank of melt. Pressure between the roUs is adjusted to produce sheet of the proper thickness and surface appearance. The necessary amount of pressure depends on the viscosity. For a given width, thickness depends on the balance between extmder output rate and the take-off rate of the pull roUs. A change in either the extmder screw speed or the puU-roU speed affects thickness. A constant thickness across the sheet requires a constant thickness of melt from the die. The die is equipped with bolts for adjusting the die-gap opening and with an adjustable choker bar or dam located inside the die a few centimeters behind the die opening. The choker bar restricts flow in the center of the die, helping to maintain a uniform flow rate across the entire die width. 

The Bradley pneumatic (air-swept type) Hercules mills Bradley Pulverizer Co.) are centrifug ring-roll-type pulverizing mills which can be fitted with either two or three rolls. These mills are suitable for the pulverization of many materials to produce as coarse as 98 percent minus-20 mesh to as fine as 99.5 percent minus-325 mesh. The size of the pulverized product can be varied by adjusting the fineness selector mounted on top of the mill. Capacities range from 225 kg/h (500 Ib/h) to 90 Mg/h (100 tons/h). When combined with the superfine Bradley IU 4C classifier, this mill can make a product finer than 11 [Lm. 

These rolls are driven by motors and /W, whose speed is controlled through the tension of the travelling sheet. The tension of the sheet is adjusted by monitoring the diminishing diameter of the payoff roll and the thickness of the sheet. 

The hot galvanized sheet is cooled by blowers and fed to an exit accumulator driven by motor M14, similar to the entry accumulator, via a deflector roll to adjust its position. 

In the case of the ship shown in Figure 1.3, the rudder and engines are the control inputs, whose values can be adjusted to control certain outputs, for example heading and forward velocity. The wind, waves and current are disturbance inputs and will induce errors in the outputs (called controlled variables) of position, heading and forward velocity. In addition, the disturbances will introduce increased ship motion (roll, pitch and heave) which again is not desirable. 

The product of force F and the rolling radius (R) of the tires on the drive wheels is the wheel torque (T). Power depends on both torque and rotational speed (N). By definition, power is given by P = 2tiNFR = 27tNT. Wlien driving at constant speed, the driver adjusts the accelerator pedal so the drive-wheel power exactly matches the power required (P,) to overcome the resistance of the vehicle (discussed later in this article). To accelerate the vehicle, the driver further depresses the accelerator pedal so that the power available at the drit c wheels (PJ exceeds P,..

FE simulations of the stress-strain properties of fiUer-reinforced elastomers are an important tool for predicting the service live performance of mbber goods. Typical examples are the evaluation of rolling resistance of tires due to hysteresis energy losses, mainly in the tire tread or the adjustment of engine mounts in automotive applications.
