This specification defines the requirements for A286 CRES T-bolts and eye bolts, with room temperature tensile strength of a minimum of 160000 psi, for use with clamps and V-band couplings at 1000 °F maximum ambient temperature.
FEV has a solution to downsize and reduce the complexity of off-highway machines via its electrified planetary gearset architecture. IVT Expo 2025 in Chicago featured a summit where industry professionals presented and discussed the nuts and bolts of the technology that powers the off-highway vehicle industry. Electrification continues to be a centerpiece of these discussions, but OEMs and suppliers are beginning to supply answers to many of the questions that this challenge presents. During the expo, several presentations covered the integration of electric powertrains at the component and architecture level. One presented by Thomas Wellman, chief engineer, drivetrain systems, FEV North America, detailed an EPGS (electrified planetary gear-set) off-highway drivetrain architecture that is modular and scalable for a variety of powertrain configurations.
The smart industrial revolution in any organization brings faster product delivery to the market, which can meet customer expectations and full life requirements without failure. Failure per machine (FPM) is a very critical metric for any organization considering warranty cost and customer perception. One such area which needs a detailed evaluation is bolted joints. Bolts play a pivotal role when integrating a subassembly with the main structure. Often, it is challenging to address bolt failure issues due to vibration induced in structures. Current bolt virtual evaluation methods help to evaluate bolts in simple loading conditions such as axial and bending loads. But it is quite complicated to evaluate the bolts which are prone to vibration loading. Traditional methods of using gravity loads miss out on dynamic characteristics, hence it must be simulated using modal dynamic analysis. With the current vADV (virtual accelerated design verification) method it is not possible to capture
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides the recommended procedure for obtaining desired preloads in aircraft wheel tie bolts when mounting tires and assembling the wheel. It is generally referred to as the snug-angle bolted joint assembly procedure. It is also known as the “torque-turn” procedure in the heavy equipment ground vehicle industry.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the geometric control requirements for bolts, screws, and studs where worded notes and symbolized notes are used for straightness, concentricity, squareness, and runout.
Heavy vehicles such as construction machinery generally require a large traction force. For this reason, axle components are equipped with a final reduction gear to provide a structure that can generate a large traction force. Basic analysis of vertical load, horizontal load (traction force), centrifugal force, and torsional torque applied to the wheels of heavy vehicles such as construction machinery and industrial vehicles, as well as actual working load analysis during actual operations, were conducted and compiled into a load analysis diagram. The loosening tendency of wheel bolts and nuts that fasten the wheel under actual working load was measured, and the loosening analysis method was presented. The causes of wheel fall-off accidents in heavy trucks, which have recently become a problem, were examined. Wheel bolts are generally tightened by the calibrated wrench method using a torque wrench. The method is susceptible to variations in friction coefficient and tightening torque
This procurement specification covers bolts and screws made from a corrosion and heat resistant, age hardenable, nickel base alloy of the type identified under the Unified Numbering System as UNS N07041 and of 155 ksi tensile strength at room temperature, with maximum test temperature of parts at 1400 °F.
