Design and Prototype Development of an Automatic Production Line for Vehicle Cigarette Lighter Socket Sheets

An innovative mold design has been developed to optimize the production process of metal parts in the cigarette lighter compartment used in vehicles and to increase the precision and quality of these parts. By producing a special machine prototype in accordance with this design, metal parts will be produced faster, more precisely and more efficiently. It is aimed for the mold to have long-lasting, easy-to-clean features and to complete the production process in only 20 operations. The designed machine will meet high precision and quality standards in the automobile industry with the integration of the necessary mechanical and electronic systems.

In the current production processes of metal parts, quality and precision problems as well as low production speed have been seen as a significant obstacle. In addition, the inadequacy of the molds used, such as durability and cleanability, reduced production efficiency. The costs of parts imported from abroad and the length of supply processes are other difficulties that reveal the need for domestic production.

During the design process, a special mold was developed taking into account the dimensions and properties of the metal parts. High-strength materials and innovative design features are used to ensure the mold is long-lasting and easy to clean. In order to optimize the production process, a production method was adopted that allows parts to be completed in only 20 operations. Additionally, a special prototype machine that can use this mold was designed and the necessary mechanical and electronic systems were integrated into this machine. Thus, a system that provides fast and precise production has been created.
