Abstract

This project focused on the problems of existing wheel spacer design thus developing new designs to eliminate these problems. Based on the scoring concept wheel spacer with the slotting design was chosen as the new design. Document control of wheel spacer was developed with the proper fabrication flow chart, production tooling and computer drawing. Special fixture of milling machine was developed to match the wheel spacer with slotting design. Problems and observation of the wheel spacer fabrication were among the matters discussed in this report. Comparisons were made for both the new and existing design of wheel spacer. From the machine design calculation, the clamping force and tensile stress area for the wheel spacer were 0.0055 inch2 and 10170 lb. Finally the destructive testing of new design was done to ensure the existing problems were eliminated.
