5. Shrink-wrapped assemblies
Once the calculations have been carried out to determine the clamping force required for the assembly to perform its intended functions, and the values of parameters such as critical speeds, wedging forces or transmissible torques have been set, the practical conditions for assembly production need to be defined.
This section describes the conditions most frequently encountered in modern applications.
Particularly used in the railway, aeronautics, nuclear and automotive industries, shrink-fitting techniques are often distinguished by the process initially chosen for clamping, while evolving according to the advantages or disadvantages observed; For a long time, press-forming was the preferred method for assembling...
