In the manufacture of power transformers, winding the transformer coil is a super important step, you think, the transformer coil is wound more firmly and neatly, the strength of the transformer and the ability to protect against short circuits can be greatly improved. However, most of the current transformer winding machines have to rely on manual extra sorting of the coil, the entire equipment is low in automation, and the production efficiency is not high, so the development of an excellent large transformer winding machine is a crucial thing for our company.
We have studied the main shaft technology of transformer winding machine, the relationship between compaction force and winding quality, and the control of compaction force. According to the principle and process flow of transformer winding, we put forward a whole design scheme of large transformer winding machine, including mechanical structure and electrical control. Mechanically, we simplify the complex structure of traditional transformer winders. In terms of electrical control, we ensure the stability of the motor when it starts and stops, and ensure that the winding coil is evenly tightened during the winding process. For the core parts of the transformer winding machine, spindle system and pressing device, we have calculated and selected the types and parameters. With the compaction device, we are able to provide real-time axial and radial compaction forces during the winding process of the transformer winding, which is very effective for improving the tightness of the winding.
The static analysis of the radial compaction device of the winding machine is also carried out by using finite element method, and the structure optimization is carried out according to the analysis results. We find that as the number of layers and turns of the winding increases, the required axial and radial compression forces change accordingly. By analyzing the experimental data, we find that there is a maximum value and a minimum value in the range of quality requirements, and it is the most reasonable choice to make the compression force approximately proportional to the number of layers and the number of turns.
The large transformer winding machine developed by our company has been preliminatively debugged and put into the market. After testing, the performance parameters of this transformer winding machine are in line with the design requirements, and the operation is stable and efficient. It can be wound to make a tight and regular transformer winding coil, and has been fully recognized by the market.
As a power grid equipment, power transformer converts voltage through the electromagnetic induction between the winding coils of the transformer. With the continuous development of the market, higher requirements are put forward for the manufacturing level of transformers, and the market needs more energy-saving and efficient transformers. Therefore, the optimization of the transformer manufacturing process is particularly critical. Quality and performance depend on the process equipment. The technical level of the transformer winding machine directly reflects the manufacturing level of the transformer. Therefore, accelerating the development of transformer winding machine is an important guarantee to improve the performance of transformer.
The winding coil of the transformer is the core component of the transformer and constitutes the electromagnetic induction part of the transformer. It generally includes high voltage winding and low voltage winding, respectively connected to the high voltage grid and low voltage grid. The winding of large power transformers usually adopts concentric winding, that is, the high and low voltage transformer winding coils are centrally set on the core column. The manufacture of transformer winding is the core process of transformer, and its quality plays a crucial role in the performance of transformer, affecting the appearance of transformer size, weight, mechanical properties, insulation and heat resistance and other important indicators.
In the past, the production of transformer winding coils relied on manual, and workers had to wind insulated wires manually to the winding die frame in accordance with the process requirements. Turns calculation also have to rely on manual, this old-fashioned method is inefficient, and because the worker's skills are not strong enough, the quality of the winding coil is poor, the number of turns may be miscalculated or missed, and ultimately lead to the finished winding coil performance can not be guaranteed. Later appeared semi-automatic transformer winding machine, which is driven by the motor to rotate the spindle to wind the transformer winding coil, although it improves the production efficiency, but the wiring work still has to rely on manual, only suitable for flat winding transformer winding coil winding, and winding head winding, welding and other operations must still be completed manually, so the product quality is not stable.
Later, with the emergence of TTL logic gate circuits, in the mid-1970s, with the development of CMOS technology, various types of equipment program control a large number of applications of digital integrated circuits, Western countries and Japan and other industrial powers have emerged CNC winding mechanism manufacturing industry. These CNC transformer winding machines represent the advanced level of winding mechanism manufacturing technology, especially the winding equipment produced in Japan, Italy, the United States and Germany is the leading technology.
Now the transformer winding machine as the core parts of the transformer production equipment, the market demand is very large, and the transformer manufacturing enterprises at home and abroad attach great importance to the development and application of advanced technology of transformer winding machine. Domestic transformer winding machine production enterprises are small, insufficient technical reserves, limited research and development funds, so there is still a big gap compared with foreign advanced products, the market share is low, unable to compete with foreign countries. To solve the key technical problems of transformer winding machine is the key to improve the quality of domestic winding equipment and enhance the market competitiveness. In order to meet the demand of transformer manufacturers for high quality and low price winding equipment, especially large transformer winding machine, on the basis of learning from foreign advanced experience, combined with domestic research results, the development of large transformer winding machine has important significance and practical value.
