Abstract

A differential is a device usually, but not necessarily employing gears capable of transmitting torque and rotation. It combines two inputs to create an output that is the sum, difference, or average, of the inputs. In automobiles and other wheeled vehicles, the differential allows each of the driving wheels to rotate at different speeds. A vehicle's wheels rotate at different speeds, mainly when turning corners. The differential is designed to drive a pair of wheels with equal torque while allowing them to rotate at different speeds. Up to now, UTeM FV car use differential to send the power from engine to tire. But almost all differential in the market really heavy and will impact on engine speed or engine torque. So that, this differential is not suitable for racing car especially for UTeM FV car. The main aim of this project is to focus on the mechanical design and analysis on assembly of gears in gear. Analysis is conducted using Solid Work Simulation by varying the materials for gears such as Cast Iron and Aluminum Alloy. In this analysis, the cast iron material was replace to Aluminum Alloy for reducing weight of the product.
