Sliding Damper
- A giant sliding damper project requested by Habaş to control the air going to the sheet metal production furnaces.
- This device was actually produced solely to control the airflow.
- Since the previous designs did not fully open and close, I redesigned it from scratch with a different approach.
- The machine was designed to allow maintenance without being removed from its position.
- What I did in the project:
- The entire system was designed from scratch.
- The internal mechanism was designed to withstand hot air but still allow external maintenance.
- The covers were ensured to fully open.
- An air piston system was used instead of a chain system.
- The product was manufactured at the company I worked for at the time and delivered to the customer.
- The operation during assembly is shown below. The separate closing of the covers was corrected by adjusting from the air collector.
