Embonini yase-Bolton, e-Lancashire, eNgilandi yomkhiqizi wama-trailer i-Indespension, ukukhiqizwa kokusika kwensimbi kuphindwe kabili kulandela ukufakwa esikhundleni kuka-December 2016 komshini osebenza nge-laser we-CO2 onesikhungo sephrofayela ye-Bystronic ByStar Fiber 6520 fiber laser ebiza cishe. £800,000 (cishe amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-1.3; UMFANEKISO 1). I-4kW fiber laser ine-6.5 × 2m umthamo umbhede, okuwenza umshini wefayibha omkhulukazi olethwe kuze kube manje emakethe yase-UK
FIGURE 1. Ngohlelo lwe-fiber laser lwe-ByStar Fiber 6520, i-nitrogen isetshenziswa njengegesi yokusika ezintweni ezifika ku-5mm ubukhulu, lapho kusetshenziswa umoya-mpilo ongabizi kakhulu ngaphezu kwalokho; kukhona umehluko omncane kukhwalithi ye-cut edge
Umqondisi wokuthenga we-Indespension uSteve Sadler uphawule wathi, "Sisika kakhulu insimbi engu-43A kanye ne-pre-galv ethambile, kanye ne-aluminium, ukusuka ku-1mm kuya ku-12mm ubukhulu. Kufika ku-3mm, i-fiber laser isika ngokushesha okuphindwe kathathu kune-CO2. Indiza ngensimbi engu-1mm, ikhiqize izimbobo eziyi-10/s. Inzuzo iyancipha njengoba ukujiya kukhula, kodwa iyonke i-ByStar ishesha ngokuphindwe kabili kuwo wonke amageji esiwacubungulayo. Ngokushaywa unhlangothi, kususe ibhodlela efektri yethu ebangelwe umshini we-CO2 ukungakwazi ukuhambisana nomsebenzi wethu wokusika i-laser olokhu ukhula njalo. "
I-fiber laser ithengwe ngokushintshaniswa kwengxenye yemodeli ye-Bystronic CO2 yomthamo ofanayo ku-Indespension eyanikezwa ngo-2009. USadler ukuqinisekisile ukuthi intengo enhle yatholwa ngomshini omdala, naphezu kokuthi usebenze amahora afinyelela kwangu-20 ngosuku, egqamisa ukugcinwa kwenani njengenzuzo yokuthenga amathuluzi kulo mkhiqizi.
Ekuqaleni, isizathu esiyinhloko sokutshala imali ekusikeni nge-laser kwakuwukuthola izinga elikhulu lokulawula ukukhiqizwa kwe-trailer yasendlini kanye nokonga izindleko zokubeka umsebenzi kosonkontileka abancane bensimbi. Okunye okucatshangelwe okubalulekile kwakuwukwenza kube lula inqubo ye-prototyping kanye nokuklama nokuletha imikhiqizo emisha ukumakethwa ngokushesha.
"Ngaphambi kuka-2009, ngesikhathi sokuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo bekufanele sithenge isethi eyodwa, ezimbili, noma ezintathu zezingxenye zensimbi," kuqhubeka uSadler. “Osonkontileka bebengafuni ukukhiqiza amanani amancane kangaka, ngakho intengo ibithanda ukuba phezulu futhi kubathathe amasonto amane kuya kwayisithupha ukuthi balethe ama-prototypes. Uma besidinga ukwenza ushintsho lwedizayini bese sibuyela kosonkontileka abancane ukuze bathole ezinye izibonelo—kungaba into elula njengesethi entsha yabaqaphi bodaka—engase yengeze enye inyanga noma ngaphezulu. Manje, singakwazi ukukhiqiza izingxenye zasendlini ngezinsuku ezimbalwa, sinciphise isikhathi sokuhola se-trailer entsha kusukela ngokuvamile ezinyangeni eziyisithupha noma eziyisikhombisa kuye ngaphansi kweziyisihlanu, noma i-trailer eshintshiwe kusukela ezinyangeni ezintathu noma ezine ukuya ngaphansi kwezimbili."
USadler waveza ukuthi eminyakeni eyishumi edlule, ambalwa ama-trailer ahlanganisa izici zokusika i-laser, kuyilapho namuhla esetshenziswa kakhulu. Ngempela, imikhiqizo yakhelwe ezungeze amandla amakhulu emishini yanamuhla yokusika i-laser. Enye inzuzo ukuthi ukwenza imishini kunembe kangangokuthi izingxenye zihlangana ngokunembile nangokushesha phakathi nokuhlanganisa, ngaphandle kwesidingo sokuhlanganisa okuthatha isikhathi.
Enye inzuzo ukuthi ukwenza imishini kuyashesha, ikakhulukazi nge-fiber laser, ukuthi kuyindlela engabizi kakhulu yokukhipha isisindo ezingxenyeni ngokuhlanganisa izimbobo eziningi nezikhala. Kungaba umsebenzi onzima kakhulu ngakho-ke kungenamali ukwenza mathupha.
Iseli yokusika i-laser isebenza imini nobusuku kanye nezibani ezicishayo phakathi nezinyanga zasehlobo, amahora ayi-18 kuye kwangama-20 ngosuku, izinsuku ezinhlanu ngesonto. Esikhathini esisele sonyaka, isebenza ngokushintshwa kosuku futhi icisha amahora ayi-10 kuye kwayi-12 ngosuku.
I-Indespension inqume ukungafaki imishini ezishintshayo ngoba icubungula osayizi abahlukahlukene beshidi, okwenza ukulayisha okuzenzakalelayo kube yinkinga. Ibanga losayizi bezingxenye nalo likhulu, lisuka ngaphezu kuka-5.8m phansi. Ngakho-ke ukuba khona komsebenzisi kuyadingeka ukuze kulawuleke ukuhlukahluka, ngakho-ke i-manual, isistimu yokuphakamisa i-suction-pad isetshenziselwa ukuphatha amashidi (UMFANEKISO 2).
FIGURE 2. Ukuphatha amashidi ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwethebula le-shuttle le-ByStar Fiber 6520 kwenziwa mathupha e-Indespension kusetshenziswa idivayisi yokuphakamisa iphedi yokumunca.
Lokhu kunikeza inkampani inkinga, nokho, uma ukukhiqizwa kokukhiqiza kubandakanya isidleke sezingxenye ezimbalwa ezilula futhi zisikwe eshidini legeji elincane. Umjikelezo wokusika uyashesha kakhulu emshinini we-fiber laser kangangokuthi u-opharetha akanaso isikhathi sokuqeda ukunyakazisa izingxenye zohlaka lwamathambo angaphambili ngaphambi kokuba ishidi lomshini elilandelayo lilunge, noma ukulayisha okungenalutho okulandelayo etafuleni le-shuttle.
Ngakho-ke, inkampani icabanga ngokufaka amathegi amancane kwezinye izinhlelo zokusika insimbi ukuze izingxenye ezinephrofayili zihlale zinamathele kuhlaka lwamathambo, okuvumela lonke ishidi elicutshunguliwe ukuthi lidluliselwe esiteshini esingaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi, lapho elinye ilungu labasebenzi lingasiza ukususa izingxenye.
Ezingxenyeni zensimbi ezisikwe nge-laser ezingena kuma-trailer e-Indespension, ama-80% adinga ukugoqwa. Ngokufanelekile, lapho kufakwa umshini wokuqala we-laser, ibhuleki ye-tandem yokucindezela evela kumphakeli ofanayo nayo yalethwa (UMFANEKISO 3)
FIGURE 3. Enye yama-trailer esitshalo se-Indespension, ebizwa ngokuthi i-Digadoc, ebonisa inani elikhulu lezici zokusikwa nge-laser namafolda adingekayo ezingxenyeni zengxenye yensimbi yeshidi.
Kunezinzuzo zokukhiqiza ngokuthola umshini wokusika we-laser bese ucindezela amabhuleki kumhlinzeki ofanayo ngokuthi bonke basebenzisa isofthiwe efanayo ye-BySoft 7. Uma ingxenye entsha yakhelwe ohlelweni lwe-Indespension's SolidWorks CAD futhi ithunyelwa ku-software yokulawula ye-Bystronic, yona ngokwayo equkethe ukusebenza okunamandla kwe-3D CAD/CAM, imodeli ikhiqiza uhlelo lokusika i-laser nokulandelana kokugoba ingxenye, okuhlanganisa indawo ye-backgauge nohlelo lwamathuluzi, ngaleyo ndlela kuncishiswe ukubambezeleka nesikhathi sokuphumula.
Isofthiwe efanayo, enamandla okulingisa aphelele, inomthwalo wemfanelo wokufaka isidleke inombolo enkulu yezingxenye ezivela eshidini, ukudala izinhlelo zokusika nokunikeza umbono wenqubo yokukhiqiza, okuhlanganisa ukufinyelela ngokushesha ekukhiqizeni kanye nedatha yomshini.
“Sizibophezele ekuholeni imakethe mayelana nokuqamba izinto ezintsha, ikhwalithi, kanye nemininingwane yezemvelo,” kuphetha uSadler. “Ukuthengwa kwe-Bystronic fibre laser kuyasisiza ukuthi sifeze lezi zinhloso, kanye nokuhlinzeka ngokwanda okudingeka kakhulu kwamandla okukhiqiza. Kuphinde kuphawule ukuzibophezela kwethu ekwenziweni kwe-UK, okuyingxenye ebalulekile yezimiso zenkampani yethu. "
