Tension Laminate To Form Cylinder
In sizing a cylinder to tension the above cable do not add tension in both legs.
Tension laminate to form cylinder. Provide adequate and uniform nip roll pressure. Silvering is when bubbles are formed under the laminate because of lack of heat lack of tension or both. Use multiplier 7 57 shown on same line. Solve for tension in longer leg.
Tension is the fipullfl in the web or the force that is pulling the web through the machine. Ply tension and compression strengths parallel to the fibers. Tension can be measured by a variety of methods and it can be stated in pounds of force tension. X t x c.
One of the laminate coordinates. α ij i j 1 2 6 entries of inverse of laminate stiffness matrix relating to membrane. Ply level stresses are the commonly used approach to laminate strength. If you don t let your machine warm up to the proper temperature it might form cool spots.
Laminate failure criteria the maximum stress criterion of failure for a composite laminate subjected to in plane biaxial stresses is. Allow minimum adhesive dwell time of 15 30 minutes before liner removal 24 hours is preferable. One cylinder will tension both legs of the cable. The stretch also known as strain from tension is the paramount issue with lamination.
Always laminate to exclude air entrapment. Try feeding the pouch slowly to avoid the problem. One of the laminate coordinates. Ply tension and compression strengths perpendicular to the fibers.
The average stresses in a given ply are used to calculate first ply failure and then subsequent ply failure leading to laminate failure. A common issue in laminating that leads to bubbles may be silvering. Increase the feed spool s tension one of the reasons for bubbling is inadequate tension between the paper and the pouch leading to air getting trapped. The word tension comes from a latin word meaning to stretch not coincidentally the flexible cords that carry muscle forces to other parts of the body are called tendons.
The analysis of laminates by the use of a ply by ply model is presented in section 4 3 and 4 4. A tension is a force along the length of a medium especially a force carried by a flexible medium such as a rope or cable. Provide good roll wrap i e 180 web tension and steering for a wrinkle free laminate. However unwind rolls with torque control will not create constant tension unless diameter changes and inertia are accounted for.
One of the laminate coordinates. Ratio a b 15 2 7 50. Tension 7 57 x 3 000 lbs. Any flexible connector such as a.
Enter left column of chart and find ratio 7 50. It is important to fiquantifyfl tension by measuring it so that it can be understood controlled and repeated from one job to the next. Don t force the pouch some people push the pouch through the laminator to try and laminate faster but this can cause bubbling. Y t y c.
