Manufacturing of Crankshaft
Forging: Generally Hot Forging process is used to form crankshafts. The billet of a suitable size is heated. The temperature would typically range from 1050 – 1250°C and the pressed into the required shape by squeezing the billet between dies under very high pressure. Extreme deformation is also possible but requires different dies for shaping. Then the resultant product is removed by gas cutting.
Machining: Machining can be done using the following steps-
Centering, Turning, Induction Hardening, Fillet Roll machining, Milling, Heat Treatment, Surface finishing, Surface Hardening.
Materials for making Connecting Rod
Connecting rods can be made from various grades of structural steel, aluminum, and titanium. Steel rods are the most widely produced and used as connecting rods. Their applications are best used for daily drivers and endurance racing due to their high strength and long fatigue life. The only problem with using steel rods is that the material is extremely heavy, which consumes more power and adds stress to the rotating assembly. Below mentioned materials are taken as connecting rod materials- Carbon Steel, High strength low alloy steel, Corrosion-resistant high strength low alloy steel, and Quenched and tempered alloy steel.
How to Calculate Resultant Reaction on Bearing 3 of centre crankshaft at angle of max torque?
Resultant Reaction on Bearing 3 of centre crankshaft at angle of max torque calculator uses Resultant Reaction on CrankShaft Bearing 3 = sqrt(Vertical Reaction at Bearing 3 Due to Flywheel^2+Horizontal Reaction at Bearing 3 Due to Belt^2) to calculate the Resultant Reaction on CrankShaft Bearing 3, Resultant Reaction on Bearing 3 of centre crankshaft at angle of max torque is the total reaction force acting onto the 3rd bearing of a centre crankshaft, designed for when the crankshaft is at an angle of maximum torque and subjected to maximum torsional moment. Resultant Reaction on CrankShaft Bearing 3 is denoted by R3 symbol.
