# Industrial Specification: Feed Frame

## 1. Technical Definition
A structural component in powder feeding systems that supports and positions feeding mechanisms.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-2.0 bar differential pressure, 15-35°C ambient temperature, 0-100% relative humidity non-condensing**. Failure boundary: **Structural failure at 3.5 bar differential pressure, material fatigue at 10⁶ cycles at 1.5 bar amplitude, dimensional instability beyond ±0.1mm at 50°C**, Mechanism: **Von Mises stress exceeding 250 MPa yield strength of 316L stainless steel at 3.5 bar, high-cycle fatigue from 1-100 Hz vibration frequencies, thermal expansion coefficient mismatch (17 μm/m·K for 316L vs 23 μm/m·K for aluminum mounts)**.

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

> **Primary Equation**: $L_{10} = (\frac{C}{P})^p$
