The document describes the design and analysis of a welding rotator. It discusses the need to weld high pressure cylinders in boilers by rotating and clamping the workpiece. An overview is provided of the rotator's self-adjusting capability to different diameters, electronic components, adjustable speed drive, and steel wheels with rubber tires that distribute pressure to prevent workpiece distortion. The abstract reiterates the need to rotate cylinders during TIG welding. The nomenclature section defines components of the rotator including the drive unit, idler unit, baseframe, wheel brackets, control panel, and pendant. The work statement lists designing and analyzing the welding rotator as objectives.

Assistant professor Mechanical Department Welding Rotator Image Problem statement • In boilers the high pressure cylinders are used. We need to weld the cylinder by tig weld. In this process we need to guide the welding gun for that we have to clamp & rotate the work piece regarding we have to design & analyze a special fixture for making it automate. Overview • Cylinder guiding arrangement as shown in figure.
• Self adjusting to different diameters of the working piece.
• Top-class electronic components. • Stepless adjustable speed of the driven part. • Steel wheels which enclose locked solid rubber tyres. • Excellent pressure distribution due to the 4 wheels per tool which leads to less distortion of the work piece especially when the wall of the item is thin.

NOMENCLATURE OF DESIGN • Drive Unit: Rotator Section with Powered Wheels • Idler Unit: Rotator Section with Free Wheeling Wheels. • Rotator Set: A set consists of 1 drive unit and 1 or more idler units • Baseframe: The frame the drive or idler wheels are mounted on. These are pre-drilled so that the wheel brackets can be positioned for different vessel diameters. • Wheel Bracket: The bracket which houses the rotator wheels. This is bolted down to the baseframe. • Panel: Electrical control box mounted on the Drive Unit • Pendant: Operators hand control Pendant Work statement • Design Of Welding Rotator • Analysis Of Welding Rotator
