Numerical Investigation of Geometrical Tolerance Effect on Torque and Power Output of Slip-On Sprocket

During manufacturing, each step will inevitably create variation. Geometrical dimensioning and Tolerancing is one example of manufacturing variation. Since variations lead to unstable performance of a system, this project focuses on establishing the co-relationship between geometrical tolerance and performance output of a slip-on sprocket. The performance will be in terms of torque and power output. The torque and power output will be measured by third party using a dynamometer. By comparing various samples of the slip-on sprocket with different GD&T, the relationship can be established.
