Portable drum for electroplating

Drum is made in the form of hexagonal prism with perforated walls, one of which is cover of loading window. Drum is rotated by reduction motor. The current supply from the power supply is through copper hooks, with the help of which the drum is suspended on the cathode rod. Rotation control - from remote control panel. List of models: Assembly "Portable Drum for Electroplating," which includes the following assemblies: - assembly "Cathode," which includes 3D models of the following parts: Hook, Spacer, Housing, Electrode, Special screw; - assembly "Drum," which includes: Cover, Face perforated, Face with loading window, Hexagon, Screw "Special assembly; The assembly also includes the following 3D models of parts: Support, Axis, Spacer, Brace, 4 types of Gear Wheels, Spacer and Motor, as well as 3D models of fasteners. Number of 3D models: 32 A small portable drum that rotates from an electric motor allows you to periodically load small parts (screws, nuts, bolts, etc.) into it for electroplating. The presence of current collectors with reliable electrical contact of a certain design in the form of suspensions makes the drum unpretentious in maintenance, easy to operate and economically profitable. A bath with a small electrolyte flow rate and an adjustable DC source will be required. The conditions of a particular electroplating were not considered. 3D part models, as well as 3D assembly, are made in SolidWorks 2010 and can be printed or converted to other design system formats for design improvements, if desired. This project can be useful for students of various technical specialties for course in design and technological calculations.
