MOTOCONFORMADORAS La Motoconformadora es una mquina muy verstil usada para mover tierra u otro material suelto Su funcin principal

es nivelar, modelar o dar la pendiente necesaria al material en que trabaja. Se considera como una mquina de terminacin superficial. Su versatilidad esta dada por los diferentes movimientos de la hoja, como por la serie de accesorios que puede tener. Puede imitar todo los tipos de tractores, pero su diferencia radica en que la Motoniveladora es ms frgil, ya que no es capaz de aplicar la potencia de movimiento ni la de corte del tractor. Debido a esto es ms utilizada en tareas de acabado o trabajos de precisin. Los trabajos ms habituales de una Motoconformadora son los siguientes: - Extendido de una hilera de material descargado por los camiones y posterior nivelacin. - Reperfilado de taludes. - Excavacin, reperfilado y conservacin de las cunetas en la tierra. - Mantenimiento y conservacin.

Aunque un conductor habilidoso puede conseguir, en muchos casos con un buldozer, resultados mas adecuados, la Motoniveladora ha sido concebida especialmente para refinar la explanada, la superficie de la subbase en las carreteras, as como los desmontes y los rellenos, para igualar taludes de las presas de tierra y conservar los caminos de arrastre de obras. Se trata de una maquina de auto-desplazable que sustenta sobre sus dos o tres ejes. Los grandes proyectos de carreteras de los ltimos aos han necesitado maquinas mas pesadas y robustas, y la configuracin con tres ejes ha demostrado ser la necesaria para poder soportar el potente motor que llevan y proporcionar mejor traccin, por lo que actualmente es el tipo de mayor aceptacin. Objetivos Objetivo principal

El objetivo del trabajo es dar a conocer al curso la importancia de la Motoniveladora en obras de movimiento de tierras para la cual fue concebida.

Objetivos Especficos

La Motoniveladora En el mercado podemos encontrar diferentes Modelos de Motoniveladoras, las cuales se clasifican segn su peso y potencia de acuerdo a las funciones especificas para las cuales son requeridas. Para nuestro trabajo trabajaremos con un modelo estndar de la fbrica volvo modelo G720B. La G720B es una de las mquinas ms populares de la lnea de Motoniveladoras Volvo. Con 15 422 kg (34 000 lb) y 164 -198 CV (122-148 kW), estas unidades ofrecen una elevada productividad en todas las aplicaciones.

Definicin: Mquina muy verstil usada para mover tierra u otro material suelto.

Su funcin principal es nivelar, modelar o dar la pendiente necesaria al material en que trabaja. Se considera como una mquina de terminacin superficial. Su versatilidad esta dada por los diferentes movimientos de la hoja, como por la serie de accesorios que puede tener. Puede imitar todo los tipos de tractores, pero su diferencia radica en que la Motoniveladora es ms frgil, ya que no es capaz de aplicar la potencia de movimiento ni la de corte del tractor. Debido a esto es ms utilizada en tareas de acabado o trabajos de precisin.

Los trabajos ms habituales de una Motoniveladora son los siguientes:

Extendido de una hilera de material descargado por los camiones y posterior nivelacin. Refino de explanadas Reperfilado de taludes. Excavacin, reperfilado y conservacin de las cunetas en la tierra. Mantenimiento y conservacin

Importante: Las Motoniveladoras no son mquinas para la produccin, sino para realizar acabados, ya sea nivelacin y/o refino. Componentes de la Motoniveladora

1. Pie de la hoja vertedera Es el extremo ms adelantado de la hoja en relacin con el sentido de marcha. Es, generalmente, el extremo que est ms prximo a las ruedas delanteras de la mquina. 2. Taln de la hoja vertedera Es el extremo ms retrasado de la hoja en relacin con el sentido de marcha. Es, generalmente, el extremo que est ms prximo a las ruedas en tndem de la mquina. 3. Giro del crculo Permite una rotacin de 360 grados del crculo y la hoja vertedera para adaptar el ngulo de la hoja al tipo de material o caractersticas de la aplicacin. El ngulo de la hoja es muy importante porque permite que el material ruede a lo largo de ella, aumentando la productividad de la Motoniveladora. Normalmente, una Motoniveladora desplaza el material de un lado al otro del rea que se est nivelando, en vez de empujarlo hacia adelante. Este desplazamiento del material por rodadura de un lado a otro de la hoja, hasta su vertido lateral, requiere menos potencia motor que si tuviera que ser empujado. Para conseguir esta accin de rodadura hay que hacer uso simultneamente de varias de las posibilidades de la mquina, como el giro del crculo, el desplazamiento lateral de la barra de tiro y la inclinacin de la hoja vertedera. (Se dispone, como opcin, de un embrague deslizante ajustable para proteger el mando del crculo de las altas fuerzas horizontales que se producen en las aplicaciones severas. Dientes endurecidos, cortados en el exterior del crculo para mximo esfuerzo de 0palanca y mnimo desgaste. El crculo se apoya en seis puntos mediante tres placas de fijacin ajustables y tres zapatas-gua ajustables, para mximo apoyo del crculo y mejor distribucin de la carga. Las placas y zapatas revestidas de DURAMIDEMR evitan el contacto entre metales y aseguran mxima vida til. DURAMIDEMR es un material de apoyo sinttico que maximiza la vida de servicio y disminuye el mantenimiento del crculo.

Acero 1050

Gracias a la buena penetracin de temple que tiene este acero, es apto para piezas de maquinas que deban soportar esfuerzos altos, longitudinales y transversales, pero sin impactos continuos. Acero al boro El Boro logra aumentar la capacidad de endurecimiento cuando el acero esta totalmente desoxidado. Una pequea cantidad de Boro, (0.001%) tiene un efecto marcado en el endurecimiento del acero, ya que tambin se combina con el carbono para formar los carburos que dan al acero caractersticas de revestimiento duro. Temple y revenido: Al dar a los aceros al carbono un temple y revenido se consiguen muy buenas caractersticas cuando el perfil es delgado. En un acero al carbono bien templado o revenido, el valor del lmite elstico suele llegar a ser un 75% de la carga de rotura.

5. Bastidor: El bastidor o chasis es el elemento metalico que sirve de soporte a todos los mecanismos que llevan consigo una Motoniveladora. 6. Eje delantero Las ruedas delanteras soportan una larga viga puente de donde cuelga la hoja vertedera. En algunos tipos de maquinas la viga va unida mediante un pivote al chasis trasero para permitir el giro en un circulo reducido, una mayor manejabilidad, y permite avanzar con el bastidor en ngulo en relacin con sentido de marcha, manteniendo las ruedas paralelas. En otros tipos la unin es rgida y el control de direccin solo es posible en el eje delantero. El diseo permite que las ruedas: (a) se inclinen unos 18 a cada lado de la vertical para resistir los empujes laterales cuando, por ejemplo, la hoja vertedera trabaja en posicin inclinada, y (b) trabajen a diferentes niveles para perfilar cunetas, peraltes, y otras tareas anlogas . La combinacin de ambos dispositivos permite que la direccin pueda controlarse sin necesidad de concentracin excesiva por parte del conductor, liberando as su atencin a favor de la hoja vertedera.

Mantenimiento de la Motoniveladora Se puede definir mantenimiento como el conjunto de actividades que se realizan a un sistema, equipo o componente para asegurar que contine desempeando las funciones deseadas dentro de un contexto operacional determinado. TIPOS DE MANTENIMIENTO Segn el tipo de actividad el mantenimiento se clasificar de la siguiente manera: MANTENIMIENTO CORRECTIVO El mantenimiento correctivo es una estrategia en la cual se permite funcionar el equipo hasta la falla y solo hasta ese momento se decide realizar la reparacin o cambio de pieza. MANTENIMIENTO PREVENTIVO El mantenimiento preventivo es una estrategia en la cual se programan peridicamente las intervenciones en los equipos, con el objeto principal de inspeccionar, reparar, conservar y/o reemplazar componentes. Las intervenciones se realizan an cuando la mquina este operando satisfactoriamente. MANTENIMIENTO PREDICTIVO

El mantenimiento predictivo, es una estrategia que busca por medio de la medicin y el anlisis de diversos sntomas que la mquina emite al exterior, establecer su condicin mecnica y su evolucin en el tiempo. Una de sus grandes ventajas es que se lleva a cabo mientras la mquina est funcionando y solo se programa su detencin cuando se detecta un problema y se desea corregir. MANTENIMIENTO PROACTIVO El mantenimiento proactivo es una estrategia de mantenimiento que pretende maximizar la vida til operativa de las mquinas y sus componentes, identificando y corrigiendo las causas que originan la falla.

BENEFICIOS DEL MANTENIMIENTO Los beneficios ms relevantes alcanzados en una organizacin con la aplicacin de un mantenimiento oportuno son: la disminucin del riesgo, previniendo la probabilidad de ocurrencia de fallas indeseables, la mejora de los niveles de eficiencia de la instalacin o equipo, la reduccin de costos operativos e incremento de la produccin. Adems de estos prolonga la vida til de los equipos, cumplimiento de los requerimientos de seguridad y el mejoramiento de la imagen de la organizacin con un realce de la impresin de clientes y entorno, as como el incremento de la moral de los trabajadores que operan los equipos e instalaciones.

OBJETIVOS DEL MANTENIMIENTO En el caso del mantenimiento su organizacin e informacin debe estar encaminada a la permanente consecucin de los siguientes objetivos: Optimizacin de la disponibilidad del equipo productivo. Disminucin de los costos de mantenimiento. Optimizacin de los recursos humanos. Maximizacin de la vida de los equipos.

Mtodos de trabajo de la Motoniveladora La hoja vertedera puede trabajar en diversas posiciones para: Nivelar y reperfilar, en plano horizontal, con la hoja centrada o girada hacia un lado u otro (fig. 6.5.a.). Si la hoja se coloca en horizontal pero con un cierto ngulo respecto a la marcha el material se amasar hacia el extremo de la hoja y formara un caballn. Por el contrario, con la hoja perpendicular a la direccin de la marcha, solo se obtiene la extensin o reperfilado del material. Nivelar y reperfilar un talud o una cara vertical (fig. 6.5.b) Construir cunetas (fig.6.5c). La hoja vertedera se inclina, tanto en planta como respecto a la vertical, y se coloca de forma que sobresalga un poco de las ruedas, por el lado de la cuneta a excavar. As se forma un caballn a lo largo del borde de la cuneta. Esta se va profundizando gradualmente por capas, manteniendo las ruedas interiores dentro la cuneta. Rellenar de zanjas o desniveles (fig.6.5d.), La operacin es similar a la que se realiza para formar un caballn.

Control de la hoja Sin control, la hoja se orienta en el plano que determinan las irregularidades del terreno, pero como la hoja puede posicionarse mediante cilindros hidrulicos, el conductor puede imponer ciertas medidas de control, independiente de la posicin que puedan adoptar las ruedas. No obstante, para conseguir superficies muy planas y regulares, es necesario utilizar algn dispositivo de nivelacin. En las obras de carreteras, frecuentemente se instalan alambres a lo largo de la obra, y unos sensores instalados en la hoja controlan su altura automticamente. Como solucin alternativa, un rayo lser activa unas clulas fotoelctricas que, a su vez, actan sobre unos gatos hidrulicos; estos, situados entre la hoja y el chasis de la niveladora, se encargan de ajustar la posicin de la hija vertedera. Velocidades recomendadas Km/h Nivelacin de caminos provisionales de obra 4-9 Escarificacin (p.e. estabilizaciones) 8-18 Formacin de cunetas 4-8 Extendido de materiales 4-10 Nivelacin y reperfilado 9-40 Limpieza de nieve 8-20 Desplazamientos propios 10-40

Otros dispositivos adicionales Muchas niveladoras tambin llevan montado un escarificador montado justo delante de la hoja vertedera. Se sube o se baja hidrulicamente, y se utiliza para disgregar el suelo, as, facilitar el trabajo de la Motoniveladora. Tambin puede colocarse un ripper, en la parte trasera de la Motoniveladora, y una hoja convencional de buldzer, en la parte delantera.

Tambin, podemos mencionar su versatilidad la cual esta dada por los diferentes movimientos de la hoja, como por la serie de accesorios que puede tener. La Motoniveladora es ms frgil, ya que no es capaz de aplicar la potencia de movimiento ni la de corte del tractor, Debido a esto es ms utilizada en tareas de acabado o trabajos de precisin. La Motoniveladora tambin la podemos ver en trabajos de anexos al acabado superficial del terreno, por ejemplo, en la limpieza de nieve en caminos, para lo cual se adapta una pala en su parte delantera, que permite una limpieza gil y oportuna en el lugar de trabajo.

Floating only one cylinder permits the toe of the blade to follow a hard surface while the operator controls the slope with the other lift cylinder. Variable Float The optional variable float feature lets the operator select the amount of down force the blade has when it is in float. This allows the operator to easily follow the contour of the haul road when removing only the loose material, increasing productivity and cutting edge life. Balanced Flow Hydraulic flow is proportioned to ensure all implements operate simultaneously with little effect on the engine or implement speeds. If demand exceeds pump capacity, all cylinder velocities are reduced by the same ratio. The result is improved productivity in all applications. Cat XT Hose Cat hose technology allows high pressures for maximum power and reduced downtime. Intelligent routing minimizes exposure to damage. Hose clips prevent hose rubbing and excessive vibration for lower owning and operating costs. Independent Oil Supply Large, separate hydraulic oil supply prevents cross-contamination and provides proper oil cooling, which reduces heat build-up and extends component life.

Cat NOx Reduction System The Cat NOx Reduction System captures and cools a small quantity of exhaust gas, then routes it into the combustion chamber where it drives down combustion temperatures and reduces NOx emissions.

Aftertreatment Technologies To meet Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emission standards and beyond, Cat aftertreatment components have been designed to match application needs. System components include a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC), which uses a chemical process to convert regulated emissions in the exhaust system, and a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that traps particulate matter that is carried into the exhaust stream. The DOC, DPF and Cat Regeneration System are contained in a Caterpillar designed Clean Emission Module (CEM) that protects the components, minimizes the aftertreatment footprint and simplifies maintenance. Cat Regeneration System The Cat Regeneration System is designed to work transparently, without any interaction needed from the operator. Under most operating conditions, engine exhaust is hot enough to oxidize soot through passive regeneration. If supplemental regeneration is needed, the Cat Regeneration System elevates exhaust gas temperatures to remove soot in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This is a process that happens automatically, but the operator can initiate the cycle when convenient or interrupt regeneration as needed. A soot level monitor can be viewed on the Cat Messenger screen and regeneration indicator lights are integrated into the front console.

Cat NOx Reduction System The Cat NOx Reduction System captures and cools a small quantity of exhaust gas, then routes it into the combustion chamber where it drives down combustion temperatures and reduces NOx emissions. Aftertreatment Technologies To meet Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emission standards and beyond, Cat aftertreatment components have been designed to match application needs. System components include a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC), which uses a chemical process to convert regulated emissions in the exhaust system, and a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that traps particulate matter that is carried into the exhaust stream. The DOC, DPF and Cat Regeneration System are contained in a Caterpillar designed Clean Emission Module (CEM) that protects the components, minimizes the aftertreatment footprint and simplifies maintenance. Cat Regeneration System The Cat Regeneration System is designed to work transparently, without any interaction needed from the operator. Under most operating conditions, engine exhaust is hot enough to oxidize soot through passive regeneration. If supplemental regeneration is needed, the Cat Regeneration System elevates exhaust gas temperatures to remove

soot in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This is a process that happens automatically, but the operator can initiate the cycle when convenient or interrupt regeneration as needed. A soot level monitor can be viewed on the Cat Messenger screen and regeneration indicator lights are integrated into the front console.

Blade Float Allows the blade to move freely under its own weight. By floating both cylinders, the blade can follow the contours of the road, especially useful when removing snow. Floating only one cylinder permits the toe of the blade to follow a hard surface while the operator controls the slope with the other lift cylinder. Independent Oil Supply Large, separate hydraulic oil supplies prevent cross-contamination and provide proper oil cooling, which reduces heat build-up and extends component life. Load Sensing Hydraulics (PPPC) The proven load-sensing system and the advanced Proportional Priority Pressure-Compensating (PPPC or triple P C) electro-hydraulic valves provide superior implement control and enhanced machine performance in all applications. Continuously matching hydraulic flow/pressure to power demands creates less heat and reduces power consumption.

Consistent, Predictable Movement PPPC valves have different flow rates for the head (red) and rod ends (blue) of the cylinder, ensuring consistent extension and retraction speeds. Balanced Flow Hydraulic flow is proportioned so all implements operate simultaneously with little effect on the engine or implement speeds.

Una Motoniveladora o Motoconformadora, es una mquina de construccin que cuenta con una larga hoja metlica (cuchilla) empleada para nivelar terrenos. Generalmente presentan tres ejes: la cabina y el motor se encuentran situados en la parte posterior, sobre los dos ejes tractores, y el tercer eje se localiza en la parte frontal de la mquina, estando localizada la hoja niveladora entre el eje frontal, y los dos ejes traseros. En ciertos pases como Finlandia, la mayora de las motoniveladoras estn equipadas con una tercera cuchilla, localizada frente al eje delantero. La principal finalidad de la motoconformadora es nivelar y afinar bases y subbases de vialidades, asi como tambien patios y plataformas. Una de las caractersticas que dan gran versatilidad a esta mquina es que es capaz de realizar el refino de taludes con distintas inclinaciones. La considerada mayor Motoniveladora del Mundo fue construida en 1980 por Humberto Acco, un contratista de Portogruaro, cerca de Venecia en el norte de Italia. Como no encontraba mquinas adecuadas para ciertos trabajos que tenia contratados se decidi a construirlas l mismo. Se construyo especialmente para una obra contratada en el desierto de Libia que finalmente no se comenz por culpa del embargo Americano a Libia de 1980. La mquina se utiliz en algunos trabajos de explanacin en Italia y esta plenamente operativa en las instalaciones de ACCO. Se construy primero un prototipo y luego la mquina definitiva con algunas mejoras. Esta maquina pesa unas 200 Tm. y monta dos motores Caterpillar uno de 1000 CV. en la parte trasera y otro de 700 en la delantera, la cual pertenece a la cabeza tractora de una mototrailla Caterpillar 657. La hoja (cuchilla) tiene una longitud de 10 metros.
