Raw Material
Raw material
-AL 7075 feature high fatigue strength and resistance to wear, corrosion, galling, and
stress relaxation.
It is evident from the Fig.1 that the elastic strain occurs at the piston end of
the connecting rod is 0.003E8 Mpa
Step 1
The CNC machine were use to cut the aluminium block
according to the 3D design of the connecting rod, Facing, Spot Drill, Drilling, Reaming,
Locating Step, Head Bolt Clearance
Step 2
Helical Ramping, Shape Rough, Middle Rod Step Rough, End mill Surface Finish, Small End
Reamer.
Step 3
The rod were put a side to remove all the excess remaining. The produce complete.
