Fresamento de Eucalyptus grandis

The process of milling wood is widely used in operations such as planing and manufacturing frames . Machines like planers , desengrossadeiras , routers , moldureiras and machining centers employ the milling process for cutting wood . In this work the process of milling CNC machining center of Eucalyptus grandis was studied because this is very much used in furniture , but without consistent studies on this process . This work a CNC machining center brand TECH Z1 for analysis of surface quality ( Ra ) in relation to the variation of cutting speed and feed in concordant and discordant tangential milling and face milling was used . We used Eucalyptus grandis . Four forward speeds ( 3, 5 , 7, and 9 m / min ) for four shear rates ( 5,9; 8,4; 10,9 and 13,4 m/s ) were used. Was used for testing a cutter finishing top speed steel with helical teeth 16mm in diameter . 6 repetitions for each test condition were performed . From the results it was observed that the best results for roughness Vc = 10,9 m / s were obtained for the milling concordant with the forward speed Vf = 7 m / min. As for Vf = 5 m / min the best finish was achieved with Vc = 8,4 m /s in discordant for milling . The feedrate and cutting influenced the roughness . The senses of concordant and discordant and cut the top and the top had a significant difference in roughness

Lixamento do Pinus elliotti com carbeto de silício e óxido de aluminio

The Sanding is a complex process involving many variables that affect the quality of the part produced, working mainly in the timber industry in the production of panels (MDF, MDP, HDF, etc...) and furniture. However, these industries use the sanding process empirically, not optimizing it. The aim of this study was to compare the behavior of sandpaper white aluminum oxide (OA-white) and Black silicon carbide (SiC-black), analyzing variables in the process as: strength, power, emission, vibration, wear particle size of sanding, and its consequences on the surface finish of the workpiece. Made the process of plane grinding samples of Pinus elliottii, processed in parallel to the fibers, which were sanded with sandpaper grain OA white and black 3-SiC abrasive conditions (new, moderately eroded and severely eroded) grain sizes in 3 (80, 100, and 120 mesh). 6 replicates was performed for each condition tested. Each trial was captured output variables of the sanding process: strength, power, emission and vibration. With two stages totaling 108 trials. After the sanded samples, it has the same surface quality by raising the surface roughness Ra. Through experiment, it can be concluded that abrasives OA-white tended to have higher strength, power, emissions and less vibration in the sanding process, compared to the SiC-black. However, surface finish exhibited similar to the particle size of 80 to 100 mesh, worn abrasive conditions. However, the particle size of 120 mesh, obtained by the roughness of sandpaper OA-bank was higher compared to SiC-black to all conditions of sandpaper due to its toughness

Efeitos da variação do teor de umidade da madeira no processo de lixamento

The process of sanding wood is little known and industries use it in a practical way without having studied their best conditions before. There are few studies involving this type of machining. On this basis, this paper studied the effects of varying moisture content of the wood surface quality after the sanding process. It was used a sanding machine with flat horizontal cut parallel to the fibers, using: 02 different species (Pinus elliottii and Corymbia citriodora); 01 sanding abrasive (aluminum oxide) and 03 different particle size abrasives ( P80 , P100 and P120 ) . Initially, the pieces were acclimatized ( 2 ± 7% , 12% and 17% ± 2 ± 2 ) and subsequently passed by the sanding process, and therefore, the surface roughness was analyzed. For each condition, were performed 06 repetitions totaling 54 trials for each species. We analyzed the effects of wood moisture by capturing the power sanding, rougheness, acoustic emission and maximum temperature during the sanding process. The variation of moisture content produced changes in the surface quality of the finished parts, and these changes were more marked in Pinus than Corymbia. During the sanding process of the specimens with 7 % and 12 % humidity, there was a lower noise emission, power consumption and heating surface. When checking the roughness of these parts after this process, it was observed that the surface quality of them were superior in the parts sanded containing 17 % moisture

Estudio de los materiales que componen el sistema constructivo de las viviendas del casco histórico de Maracaibo (Venezuela)

En este trabajo de investigación que se presenta para optar al grado de Doctor, se analizan y estudian los materiales que conforman las viviendas de mampostería de arenisca “Piedra de Ojo” del casco histórico de Maracaibo, Venezuela, construidas en el siglo XIX. No existe una bibliografía descriptiva técnico-constructiva del sistema constructivo, por lo que esta tesis complementa la escasa descripción estilística existente donde apenas se mencionan algunos materiales de construcción. Definido el marco histórico y las manzanas del área en donde se encontraban las viviendas preseleccionadas a estudiar, en la visita de campo se seleccionaron 12 que se encontraban en estado de deterioro, y que permitieron recolectar las muestras más fácilmente. Para realizar la caracterización y comportamientos de los diferentes materiales utilizados: piedra y morteros en los cerramientos, maderas en armaduras de tejados, techos y carpintería de puertas y ventanas, cerámicos en muros y acabados, etc. Para complementar lo antes dicho se ha dividido esta tesis en seis capítulos: En el capítulo I se desarrolla el estado del arte a nivel nacional e internacional de trabajos de investigación, similares. Se aborda la memoria histórica, que es una reseña de la evolución de la vivienda en la ciudad de Maracaibo. En el capítulo II se describe la metodología empleada en la tesis, de acuerdo a los objetivos, tanto generales como específicos de la investigación. Que ha cubierto diferentes frentes: consulta bibliográfica, levantamiento planimétrico, toma de muestras, análisis de visu, caracterización físico-química y correlación de resultados. Se ha desarrollado el trabajo tanto in situ como en laboratorio y despacho. El capítulo III presenta la caracterización de la arenisca “Piedra de Ojo”, se desarrolla: la descripción geológica y caracterización petrológica. Se reseñan los ensayos realizados en laboratorio como: caracterización de visu, caracterización petrográfica, estudio petrográfico por microcopia óptica de trasmisión, estudio petrográfico por microcopia electrónica de barrido, microscopia electrónica de barrido en modo electrones secundarios (SSE) y microscopia electrónica de barrido en modo electrones retrodispersados. También las propiedades escalares de los mampuestos y los siguientes valores: densidades, porosidades y resistencia mecánicas, entre otros. En el capítulo IV se analizan las características de los morteros aplicados en las viviendas, y la patología o lesiones que presentan. Se clasifican en tres tipos: mortero de junta o asiento, de enfoscado y revoco. Se documenta la realización de los ensayos físicos y químicos, resistencia mecánica y de granulometría; se explican sus componentes principales: conglomerante de cal, áridos y aditivos y la tecnología de fabricación, así como las características físicas, hídricas, químicas y granulométricas. El capítulo V, contiene las aplicaciones constructivas de los materiales de albañilería, Se describen otros elementos de la vivienda como; cimentaciones, muros mixtos, molduras, apliques y pinturas y finalmente pavimentos. Y en el capítulo VI se analizan las especies de madera más representativas usadas en las armaduras de las cubiertas, así como los elementos de cubrición. De igual forma se describe la carpintería de puertas y ventanas, así como sus dinteles o cargaderos de madera y se realiza la identificación anatómica, las propiedades físicas y mecánicas de las utilizadas. Entre los resultados y conclusiones se determinó que el 90% de los materiales utilizados en su construcción proceden de zonas cercanas a la construcción de la vivienda, como la formación El Milagro convertida en cantera de piedra y que el resto de los materiales provenían de la Isla de Toas y de la exportación de las islas del Caribe y de Europa como el cemento. El principal aporte de esta investigación es el análisis técnico constructivo y la caracterización física, mecánica y química de los materiales de la vivienda, con el fin de que dicha información sea usada para definir los materiales nuevos a utilizar en las restauraciones de las viviendas y en futuras líneas de investigación. ABSTRACT In this research paper submitted to opt to the degree of Doctor, the materials that make the “Piedra de Ojo” sandstone masonry houses of the historical center of Maracaibo, Venezuela, built in the XIX century, are analyzed and studied. There exists no technical-constructive descriptive literature of the constructive system, so this thesis complements the very limited existing stylistic description, where barely some construction materials are mentioned. With the historical context and the blocks of the area where the preselected houses to be studied being defined, 12 of these houses that were in a state of decay (deterioration) were selected and this condition allowed to collect samples more easily, in order to carry out the characterization and behavior of the different materials used: stone and mortars in the walls, wood trusses in roofs, ceilings and woodwork of doors and windows, walls and ceramic finishes, etc. To complement the foregoing, this thesis has been divided in six chapters: In Chapter I, the state of art at national and international levels of similar research is developed, which is a review of the evolution of housing in the city of Maracaibo. In Chapter II, the methodology used in the thesis is described, according to the research’s objectives, general and specific ones, which have covered several fronts: literature survey, planimetric survey, sampling, visu analysis, physical-chemical characterization and correlation of results. Chapter III presents the characterization of the “Piedra de Ojo” sandstone; geological description and petrologic characterization are developed. Essays performed in the laboratory are reviewed, such as: visu characterization, petrographic characaterization, petrographic study by optical microscopy of transmission, petrographic study by electronic scanning microscopy in secondary electron mode (SSE) and electron microscopy scaning by backscattered electron mode. Also scalar properties of the masonry and the following: density, porosity and mechanical resistance, among others. In Chapter IV, characteristics of the mortars used in the houses are analyzed and pathology or damages are presented. They are classified into three types: grout, cement render and plaster. Physical and chemical testing, mechanical strength and grain size (granulometric) is documented; its main components are explained: lime binder, aggregates and additives and manufacturing technology as well as the physical, water, chemical and granulometric characteristics. Chapter V contains the constructive applications of masonry materials. Other housing elements are described, such as; foundations, mixed walls, moldings, wall paintings and finally floorings (pavements). And in chapter VI the most representative species of wood used in the overhead fixtures and cover elements are analyzed. Likewise, woodwork of doors and windows and their wooden lintels or landings are described; anatomical identification and physical and mechanical properties of the ones used is made. The results and conclusions determined that 90% of the materials used in its construction came from areas near the construction of housing, such as El Milagro formation, converted into stone quarry and other materials came from the Toas Island and from the export of the Caribbean islands and Europe, such as cement. The main contribution of this research is the constructive technical analysis and physical, mechanical and chemical characterization of the materials of the houses, in order that such information is used to define the new materials to be used in the housing restoration and future research lines.

Caracterización de vidrios para la evaluación del aislamiento acústico a ruido aéreo

La principal aportación del trabajo es la formulación de una alternativa que facilita la determinación experimental del factor de pérdidas y, en consecuencia, mejorar las predicciones de aislamiento a ruido aéreo para vidrios con una o más capas intermedias sea cual fuere su naturaleza. Además, se realiza una revisión de las normativas relacionadas con los ensayos de los parámetros mecánicos necesarios para la caracterizar los vidrios, centrándonos en los monolíticos y los laminados. En efecto, uno de los problemas que se plantea en el contexto de la acústica de la edificación actualmente es el de cumplir con los requisitos de aislamiento acústico a ruido aéreo en fachada que exige el vigente Código Técnico de la Edificación (CTE). Como sabemos, en la fachada podemos distinguir la parte ciega y la parte hueca. La parte más débil en lo concerniente a aislamiento a ruido aéreo es la hueca (compuesta por el vidrio, carpintería y otros elementos). Si la carpintería es la adecuada, la superficie de vidrio se convierte en el elemento limitante. El Catálogo de Elementos Constructivos (CEC) del CTE, la propia norma UNE-EN 12758:2011, así como algunos, cada vez más, fabricantes ofrecen datos del aislamiento de vidrios simples, vidrios laminados y vidrios dobles. En el caso de vidrios laminados, estos datos se limitan únicamente en los que tienen un sola lámina intermedia y, además, no acústicos. Podemos hablar, por tanto, de una laguna de información en este sentido. Para obtener predicciones fiables de aislamiento acústico a ruido aéreo de particiones multicapa, como pueden ser los vidrios laminados es necesario disponer de las características mecánicas y una de las más relevantes es el factor de pérdidas.
