Godrej Forklift King Pin And Bush

Shri Ram Industries is a well-known kingpin bush manufacturer. In automobiles, the front axle assembly is a main load-bearing member and houses steering linkages. Front axle assembly has two main parts namely axle beam and axle arm, interconnected by a kingpin. This kingpin allows the rotation of the axle arm during steering events.

To avoid metal-to-metal contact between the axle arm and kingpin, bushes are housed on the top and bottom half of the axle arm & in the axle beam. Due to radial load and steering rotation, as a weak member, bushes will wear out faster. This affects the proper functioning of the steering mechanism. Hence, the bushes need to be evaluated before their implementation in the vehicle.

In general, bushes are evaluated using the Pin-On-Disc test as a comparative study, but it does not simulate exact boundary conditions as in vehicles. The next option is vehicle-level validation but leads to more testing time and cost. Hence, as an optimized solution, the same vehicle operating conditions can be replicated in component-level testing.
