Automatic Transmission (AT) system is efficient in the aspects of vehicle safety, comfort, reliability and driving performance. The objectives of this paper are to collect the oil samples from AT systems of engine bus according to manufacturer's recommendations and analyse collected oil samples using oil analysis technique. The sample transmission fluid which was taken from the AT gearbox has been experimentally analyzed. The oil samples were taken with an interval of 5,000km, 30,000km, 50,000km, 80,000km, 180,000km and 300,000km for AT bus operation. These samples then have been analyzed by comparing between new and used transmission fluid using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Oil analysis by FTIR is a form of Predictive Maintenance (PdM) to avoid major failure in machine elements. Most machine elements are not easily accessible in the transmission system. Having a reliable technique would avoid the needs to open the components unnecessarily, hence, help to prevent catastrophic failure which are very costly, and ease of regular monitoring. In order to identify the major failures of automatic gearbox, forecasts can be made regarding the lube transmission fluid analysis test. By using this test, the minor problems can be determined before they become major failures. At the end of this research, the wear particles profile for interval mileage of AT system was obtained.

The Impact

The relevance of the search for solutions to increase the wear resistance of bucket teeth of excavating machine type front shovel is analyzed. The reasons for the wear of the teeth are considered. It is determined that when excavating machines work for rocks of VIII and IX categories, impact-abrasive wear of the inner side of the teeth and abrasive external wear occurs. It is proved that the cold-work hardening of Hadfield steel (the teeth material), which occurs during the excavating machine teeth work in the rocks of VIII and IX categories, reduces the impact-abrasive wear rate on the inner side of the teeth and does not affect the abrasive wear of the outer. The methods for thermomechanical treatment of the outer side of the excavating machine tooth is proposed. It can increase the wear resistance of Hadfield steel (110G13L) up to 1.7 times and lead to the self-sharpening effect of the tooth due to equalization of the wear rate of the outer and inner parts of the tooth. The efficiency factor of thermomechanical treatment to reduce the of abrasive wear rate of Hadfield steel is experimentally proved.

AbstractLaser surface texturing is currently the most developed technique for producing fully reproducible microcavities on the surfaces of machine elements. From the point of view of texture technology, an important aspect is the proper selection of process parameters to obtain texture elements with desirable and repetitive geometries and physicochemical properties. Surface texturing improves mottling and fretting resistance and is also used wherever the adhesion properties of surface layers (printing techniques, bonding materials, biological and chemical activity, coatings, etc.) are important. The article shows the possibility of applying statistical functions to the selection of appropriate machining parameters to obtain microgeometry useful in the application of textured surfaces [1].

Order Components

Dynamic signals acquired from rotary machines can be characterized by the order tracking (OT) techniques. The extracted order components correspond to the operation of specific machine elements and reflect their current healthy or faulty states. The study extends the angular-velocity Vold–Kalman OT scheme to simultaneously extract multiple order components. Theoretical derivation is illustrated with simulation of processing three synthetic signals to show its merit. Additionally, as an example to validate its effectiveness, the improved OT scheme is used to process pass-by noise emitted from an electric scooter with a planetary-gear-set transmission system. The gear-meshing orders are effectively decoupled from structure-borne resonances.

Methods of structural optimization have been studied and developed over the last three decades. An important aspect of structural optimization pertains to the condition under which the loads are applied. Most machine structures in operation are subject to loads varying as functions of time. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to cope with loads whose magnitudes vary within given bounds and with variable directions. The underlying ideas are applied to the structural optimization of the roller-carrying disk of a novel class of cam-follower speed reduction devices termed Speed-o-Cam (SoC). Results obtained in this paper are compared with a current prototype and with an intermediate design in which the dimensions of the roller pins are optimized. Combined with the optimum dimension of the roller pins, our structural-optimization results lead to an improvement of almost twice the stiffness with a mass reduction of 40% of the original prototype.

Cutting Processes

Nowadays parts made of up-to-date engineering plastics are used more and morein mechanical engineering practice. These machine-elements are produced most frequentlyby injection molding or by one cutting process. The injection molding technology are usedgenerally for great number of pieces, in case of serial production while cutting processes arepreferred to piece (unit) or smaller number production.We used lathe and measured the main- and feeding-directional cutting force at differentengineering polymers (cast PA6, POM C and UHMW PE HD 1000). The analysis made canbe well used in practice.
