Transformer Core Stacking & Turning Platform | Large Transformer Core Process Equipment

Overview

This transformer core stacking and turning platform represents a heavy-duty specialized tooling system specifically engineered for large and medium-sized transformer core manufacturing processes.

Featuring an innovative modular structure and mechanical turning technology, it effectively addresses three core challenges in transformer core stacking and turning: precision control, safety stability, and process adaptability.

The system eliminates the need for traditional pit foundations, requiring only a ground positioning slot for rapid deployment. While ensuring deformation-free core turning, it significantly reduces equipment investment and space requirements, making it an ideal solution for modern transformer production.

Core System Components

  • Turning Platform Main Body: I-beam platform, gear-shaped turning beam, turning seat, positioning square beam forming the main load-bearing frame
  • Support & Stabilization System: Legs, pin shafts, leveling jacks ensuring operational stability
  • Process Auxiliary System: I-beam supports, horizontal supports, quick clamps and other iron arrangement accessories
  • Lifting System: Specialized lifting beam and support, compatible with workshop cranes

Operational Workflow

  1. Core Stacking Phase: Rapid platform assembly based on core window dimensions using modular structure, completing precise silicon steel sheet stacking in horizontal position
  2. Process Preparation: Installation of iron arrangement positioning devices, using strap tensioning devices for core binding
  3. Safe Turning Phase: Utilizing workshop crane as power source, achieving smooth 90° core turning through precise engagement of gear-shaped turning beam and seat
  4. Safety Protection: Immediate leg deployment after turning to prevent accidental core tipping

The Challenges

  • Specification Diversity: Varying core window sizes across transformer models challenge traditional fixed equipment
  • Extreme Precision Requirements: Minimal gaps between core laminations mean any deformation during turning affects transformer performance
  • Space Constraints: Traditional turning equipment requires deep pits and special foundations with high modification costs
  • Process Complexity: Advanced processes like non-removable upper yoke place higher demands on tooling equipment
  • Safety Risks: Critical stability control during heavy core (up to 250 tons) turning operations
