Hydro-Mechanical systems and Mobile Hydraulics:
Powermetric’s designs have greatly benefited traction driven vehicles since the designs incorporated hydro-mechanical systems in the transmission design systems, which minimised wear and tear and reduced maintenance since it used fewer components.

Through its superior design solutions, Powermetric™ has been able to increase the ease and convenience of applications in the field of mobile hydraulics. The designs aim to ensure that the agricultural equipments are rugged and capable of working under extreme conditions, even in dry and dusty environments.

Finite Element Analysis:
Flex Plate Analysis for traction drive is undertaken to analyse mode shapes at various rotating conditions. The plate thickness is 2.5 mm and has flexibility for axial mis-alignment. The natural frequencies are determined during the rotational speed of 2700 RPM. Powermetric™ optimised the design to improve plate rigidity during high torque transmission.

The pump body was analysed for Hoof stresses developed due to pressure in the body. The effect of combined stress due to over torquing and Hoof stress was analysed in detail, thereby enabling the determination of torque limit for the fixing of covers on the pump body.
