Pinion Preload Machine

ASTA Technologies design and manufacture high precision linear motion Pinion preload machine to preload the nut pinion arrangement in the differential housing with dual servo motor synchronization using torque sensors as monitoring parameter.

Preload system cancels the backlash between differential components and pinion. On this machine the preload torque of the pinions can be adjusted using torque sensors.

One of the Pinion Pre-load machine is installed at Carraro, Pune.

• The project includes the design, concept building & development of two Assembly machines for the Driveline differential of an earth-moving vehicle.
• One machine preloads the nut pinion arrangement in the differential housing with the two servo motor synchronization with the torque sensor as monitoring parameter.
• Hardware used : PCI cards, LabVIEW 8.5 software, Torque sensors, encoders and servo.
• Motors were used for this machine development.
