KONDA REDDY_R101276_IMPLEMENTATION DESIGN FOR INSPECTION OF O-RINGSKesava S
This document describes the design of tapered mandrels to measure O-rings used in gearbox assemblies. O-rings need to be within specified tolerances to avoid leakage issues. The tapered mandrels are designed with upper and lower limit markings based on the tolerance zone. To measure an O-ring, it is simply dropped onto the mandrel. If the inner diameter falls within the tolerance range, it passes inspection. O-rings below the lower limit are considered compressed, while those above the upper limit are considered expanded and will be rejected. The tapered mandrel design allows for an indirect measurement method to avoid elongating the O-rings during inspection.
