BENDING AND VIBRATION OF THE WORKING CYLINDER SHALL ON SAW FIBER SEPARATION MACHINES

In this paper, the results of research on the development and substantiation of the parameters of a resource-efficient, vibration-resistant design of a gin machine saw cylinder flexible element bearing support are presented. According to authors, it was found that the saw cylinder bends during operation, which has a negative impact on the sawing technology, causing the saw cylinder to vibrate and, as a result, the bearings to fail quickly. The use of flexible bearing supports ensures significant absorption of shaft vibrations and increases the service life of the saw cylinder and bearings
