# Industrial Specification: Core Clamping and Handling Robot

## 1. Technical Definition
Automated robotic system for precise clamping, positioning, and transfer of transformer cores during assembly and impregnation processes.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.5 MPa clamping pressure, 0.1-1.0 mm positioning accuracy, -10°C to 50°C ambient temperature**. Failure boundary: **Clamping force exceeds 3.0 MPa causing core deformation, positioning error exceeds 2.0 mm causing misalignment, ambient temperature exceeds 60°C causing servo motor thermal shutdown**, Mechanism: **Yield strength of transformer core laminations (typically 250-350 MPa) exceeded by excessive clamping force, cumulative positioning error from servo encoder resolution (0.01 mm) and backlash (0.05 mm), thermal expansion coefficient mismatch (11×10⁻⁶/°C for aluminum vs 23×10⁻⁶/°C for steel) causing binding**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **L10 Bearing Life & Fatigue Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $L_{10} = (\frac{C}{P})^p$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts mechanical lifecycle before component fatigue.
