    To translate axial F to tensile force of screw

    thank you Kenneth for the detailed input and looking forward to the proposed mathematical model. thank you rb1957 for the suggestion! The collar will not rotate for it fixed to be in the current position, except it can shift along the axis when pushed. it should be a stop. Will check out the 1/2...

    To translate axial F to tensile force of screw

    Hi Kenneth Appreciate the input + thought behind. Can shed some light on how the clamp pressure should be calculated if the torque on bolt is 1.5Nm, as posted in the jpg in reply to desertfox above. I still cannot link the surface area into the analysis. Bolt torque to radial friction? T=0.2 x...

    To translate axial F to tensile force of screw

    Hi desertfox Thanks for the note. if the "clamp" or the "open ended collar" is a rigid one piece Al, without the theoretical pivot at the bottom, then the moment will not exist? or can use the shaft/center axis to calculate the moment? Any suggestion how to determine the force acting on the...

    To translate axial F to tensile force of screw

    Desertfox, thank you very much! a bit rusty for me, on the 2P from bolt to cause 2x 2P at the max diameter area? any reference or link that I can dwell further? yes, will prepare for actual test to get actual data. Thanks again for the suggestion!

    To translate axial F to tensile force of screw

    Started a new thread to go deeper into the concept. Like to find out how: 1) to determine if the SS M5 screw or the Al collar will break by translating the axial force hitting on the collar-shaft assembly. see attached picture. F acting on the collar is parallel to collar-shaft assembly. 2)...
