Abstract

This article reports on an experiment that studied the critical angular clamping speeds for fasteners using the Design of Experiments (DOE) methodology and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The study aimed to investigate the stick-slip phenomenon, a critical factor limiting the angular speed. The stick-slip was measured using the stick-slip factor, which is defined as the ratio of stick-slip chattering amplitude to frequency. The investigation focused on the factors that affect the stick-slip factor, torque, and clamping force (preload): friction coefficient, clamping angular velocity, cathodic electrodeposition, and hardness of the bolthead bearing plate. Automated predictive algorithms can utilize the data collected from this study to prevent the occurrence of the stick-slip phenomenon in screw clamping processes.
