Design and Research of Pipe Intelligent Automatic Arranging System

Abstract:

This paper reviewed the research status of pipe automatic arranging system. In view of small capacity, poor stability and low placing efficiency of the drill pipe storage, a pipe arranging scheme was presented, pipes are arranged layer by layer separated by separator-plate with no gap. The scheme includes drill pipe conveying and sorting devices. Two automatic pipe conveying methods of inclined rolling conveyor and V-shaped groove conveying and sorting were designed. By the comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of these two options, V-shaped groove conveying and sorting device was selected to be the research direction. Based on the actual project parameters, the Adams dynamic simulation analysis was made on the precision error of the drill pipe in the conveying process, the rationality of the design was verified.
