Design and Analysis of Cutter Drum by using Analytical Approach

In this paper, Chains are used for transmission of power, when the distance between the centers of shafts is short. These chains have provision for efficient lubrication. Considering the system, forces, torque acting on a chain is used to calculate the stresses induced. Stress analysis also carried out by using FEA software and the results are compared with the calculated values. The chains may also be used for long center distance of up to 8 meters. This paper illustrates how the chain drives are very important to carry forwards the power. These wheels have projecting teeth of special profile and fit into the corresponding recesses in the links of the chain. The toothed wheels are known as *sprocket wheels or simply sprockets. A cable laying machine for underground placement of cable incorporating a basic frame and power unit incorporating a rear warred attractive component with the front and rear components being articulately interconnected for steering control of the machine and the rear component including cable laying plough associated there with the rear component may be provided with cable reels and guide structures for guiding the cable plough. The cable laying machine has a cutter drum at its front end which digs up the soil along linear channels rolls down the cable mounted on the roller behind. The proposed machine eliminates hazards faced by commuters solving three purposes simultaneously of digging, Cable laying and then covering the soil.
