Productivity Improvement by Reducing Idle Time Using Queueing Theory
Abstract: In this investigation, the rail spring production unit performance to enhance the productivity by reducing the idle time is discussed. The objective of the paper is to improve the effectiveness, efficiency and selecting the most suitable system for production unit. The spring production unit has seven independent work stations namely; end tapering, bar heating furnace, coiling and quenching, tempering furnace, end grinding, chamfering, shot peening and hardness testing. We have …

Suspension System with Combined Leaf and Helical Spring: A Review
Abstract: A good suspension system of any automobile vehicle must have minimum deflection, minimum weight, low maintenance and low operating cost with some other fine properties. Springs are major element of any suspension system and first line of its defense. If the suspension springs are rigid enough, they will not absorb road shocks efficiently, and if they are more flexible, then they will keep vibrating for a longer time even after …

Experimental testing of spring for absorption of sudden impact on spring (Transmissibility)
Abstract: Shock absorber is used to sustain & absorb the shock & jerk during working / running condition of machine / Vehicle. This test rig is used to study performance of shock absorber at different operating speeds. This paper presents systematic Experimental investigations increasing dynamic load suspension system (coil spring). One of the major differences of this study from previous work is that it includes parametric sensitivity analysis in order to …
