Konstruktion und Projektmanagement - Circular Saw Shaft
Student’s version
Complete the grid by writing down your name and the relevant data.
name:
input speed n (rpm)
input power P (KW)
saw blade diameter D (mm)
bearing distance A (mm)
distance L (blade to belt pulley) (mm)
kind of bearing
bearing sealing
construction of bearing tube
For a circular saw you should design the shaft including the bearing (situation), the bearing tube
and the V-belt pulley.
Calculate:
 cutting force Fc, tangential force of the belt pulley Ft, the bearing forces and the shaft force FW
caused by the belt forces.
 the bending moments and sketch them in two planes
 approximate shaft dimensioning
 bearing for a lifetime of 2000 hours

The documentation must include:
 cover sheet
 instructions (this sheet)
 calculation
 drawings (assembly drawing and single part drawings assigned by the teacher)
Below you see an example for dimensioning.
Please note that the belt forces und the cutting force include an angle of 45° with the table.
