Design, Analysis, Fabrication And Testing Of A Composite Leaf Spring


on: September 11, 2008, 11:33:47 am

In order to conserve natural resources and economize energy, weight reduction has been the main focu primarily by the introduction of better material, design optimization and better manufacturing processe automobiles as it accounts for 10% - 20% of the unsprung weight. This achieves the vehicle with more

The introduction of composite materials was made it possible to reduce the weight of leaf spring witho have more elastic strain energy storage capacity and high strength to weight ratio as compared with th The composite material offer opportunities for substantial weight saving but not always be cost-effecti Literature Review

Investigation of composite leaf spring in the early 60's failed to yield the production facility because o Researches in the area of automobile components have been receiving considerable attention now. Par

the weight of the vehicles in recent years. Emphasis of vehicles weight reduction in 1978 justified taki potential of FRP in automotive structural application.

The development of a liteflex suspension leaf spring is first achieved. Based on consideration of chipp laminated spring is constructed. A general discussion on analysis and design of constant width, variabl double tapered FRP beam are evaluated for leaf spring application. Recent developments have been ac springs based on microstructure mechanism. All these literature report that the cost of composite; leaf fabricate the composite leaf spring with the same cost as that of steel leaf spring.

Material properties and design of composite structures are reported in many literatures. Very little info literature, than too in 2D analysis of leaf spring. At the same time, the literature available regarding ex and international standards. Recent emphasis on mass reduction and developments in materials synthe Materials Selection

Materials constitute nearly 60%-70% of the vehicle cost and contribute to the quality and the performa wider economic impact. Composite materials are proved as suitable substitutes for steel in connection for le

Hello All,

Well as Arun have rightly mentioned about the weight reduction of vehicles due to composite leaf spri

Plz note : Highest Tolerable Vibration for Human body is 1.5 hertz (As per International standar Metal Leaf Spring 1.10 Hz ARC Leaf Spring 0.35 Hz

Advantages of ARC Composite carbon fiber leaf spring suspension: 1) Specifically made to give effects like Air Suspension with out any extra external energy(Fuel) 2) No permanent deformation hence no re-cambering, thus no maintenance.

3) Minimum wear and tear of body parts and tyre due to delicate tendency of absorbing road shocks, je 4) Softer ride, Lower noise level, excellent stability due to better damping characteristics. 5) Excellent corrosion resistance against atmospheric pollutants. 6) Five times stronger than conventional metal leaf springs. 7) Fully interchangeable with the conventional spring without any modifications. Increase in fuel efficiency due to better aerodynamics and around 60% weight reduction. 9) No cracking sound since mono leaf and hence no inter-leaf friction and no greasing required. 10) Fatigue life 1 million cycles as compared to only 2 lacs for the metal leaf springs. ( ARAI tested)

Will keep you all updated about these CLF's and benefits/advantages of composite l Tushar Pawar [email protected] +91 9960809010/ +91 9011022861

Very little information available in connection with the final elements analysis of leaf Spring in the lit literature on experimental stress analysis. Experimental procedures are described in the national and in Web design rochdale
