Replacing the z-elevator with a screw conveyor

Diplomsko delo »Zamenjava Z-elevatorja s polžnim transporterjem« vsebuje zasnovo in preračun polžnega transporterja. Polžni transporter je namenjen za transportiranje titanovega dioksida (TiO2) in bo zamenjal obstoječi elevator, ki je že obrabljen in dotrajan. Pri njegovem načrtovanju smo upoštevali, da material ne sme priti v stik z umazanijo, kot na primer olja in maščobe. Zaradi velike transportne dolžine smo se odločili, da bomo uporabili dva krajša transporterja z zunanjim uležajenjem. Transporter bo izdelan iz materialov, ki se lahko uporabljajo v živilski industriji. V diplomskem delu je najprej naveden kratek opis transporterjev, analitični preračun, 3D model in opisan predviden potek vzdrževanja ter varstvo pri delu.The thesis titled »Replacement of a Z-elevator with a screw conveyor« contains the design and calculation of a screw conveyor. The screw conveyor is intended for transporting titanium dioxide (TiO2) and it will replace the existing elevator, which is already worn out. For design, we took into account, that the material must not come into contact with dirt, such as oils and greases. Due to the large transport length, we decided to use two shorter conveyors with external bearing. The conveyor will be made of harmless materials, that can be used in the food industry. The thesis first provides a brief description of the conveyors, analytical calculation, 3D model and describes the planned course of maintenance and safety at work
