# Industrial Specification: Bulk Material Handler

## 1. Technical Definition
A heavy-duty industrial machine designed for moving, stacking, reclaiming, and blending bulk materials such as ores, coal, grains, and aggregates in large-scale operations.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.5 MPa hydraulic pressure, 0-85°C ambient temperature, 0-95% relative humidity**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure exceeding 3.0 MPa causes seal extrusion, structural stress exceeding 250 MPa yield strength, bearing temperature exceeding 120°C**, Mechanism: **Hydraulic fluid compressibility (bulk modulus 1.4 GPa) causing pressure spikes, Hertzian contact stress exceeding bearing raceway fatigue limit (1.1 GPa), thermal expansion coefficient mismatch (steel 11×10⁻⁶/°C vs polymer seals 80×10⁻⁶/°C)**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Tractive Power & Resistance Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = \frac{F \cdot v}{\eta}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Ensures motor torque capacity exceeds operational inertia.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| F | Total Tractive Resistance | Engineering Constant |
| v | Belt Speed | Engineering Constant |
| \eta | Efficiency | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Hydraulic fluid contamination exceeding ISO 4406 18/16/13 cleanliness level | 8 | Servo valve spool sticking with 0.5 mm displacement error | Install 3 μm absolute filtration with 0.8 beta₃ rating and continuous particle monitoring |
| Gear tooth bending stress exceeding 400 MPa at 10⁷ cycles | 8 | Gear root fatigue crack propagation at 0.1 mm/cycle rate | Case hardening to 60 HRC surface hardness with compressive residual stress of -300 MPa |
