Reduction of Vibrations and Noise using Nylon-66/SiC Nanocomposite Gear Box in Lathe
A. Chennakesava Reddy
Abstract: Exposure to excessive noise can damage hearing, and it is important to understand the effects of this kind of noise, particularly because such exposure is avoidable. The aim of the present work was to reduce vibrations and noise in the lathe machines using nylon-66/SiC nano composite gears in the gear box. As per IRD General Machinery Vibration Severity Chart, the condition of the lathe is SMOOTH as the vibration has been reduced to 88 VdB. The noise levels have been reduced to the permissible limit of 99 dB for the lathe machines with gear box having Nylon-66/SiC nano composite gears.
Keywords: Vibration, noise, lathe, gear box, Nylon-66, silicon carbide, nanocomposite gears
