# Industrial Specification: Flight

## 1. Technical Definition
A helical blade or screw thread component used in screw conveyors, extruders, and similar equipment to move materials through a barrel or housing.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-2.5 MPa (1-25 bar) axial pressure, 0-150 rpm rotational speed**. Failure boundary: **Helix pitch deformation exceeding 0.5 mm deviation from nominal geometry at 2.8 MPa (28 bar) axial load or 200 rpm rotational speed**, Mechanism: **Plastic deformation due to von Mises stress exceeding yield strength of 345 MPa (AISI 4140 steel) combined with torsional shear stress from material resistance**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Abrasive particle size &gt;2 mm in conveyed material | 8 | Helix surface erosion exceeding 0.1 mm depth per 1000 operating hours | Hard chromium plating to 0.05 mm thickness with 800 HV hardness |
| Material bridging causing 300% torque increase for 5+ seconds | 8 | Shaft torsion failure at keyway stress concentration factor of 2.5 | Torque limiter clutch set to disengage at 150% rated torque |

## 3. Key Technical Parameters

- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are available for industrial flights?
**A**: Our flights are manufactured from alloy steel, stainless steel, and tool steel to meet various durability, corrosion resistance, and strength requirements for different material handling applications.

### Q: What are the main components of a flight assembly?
**A**: A complete flight assembly consists of three key BOM components: the flight tip (leading edge), flight root (attachment point), and flight land (material contact surface), all precision-engineered for optimal performance.

### Q: What equipment uses helical flight components?
**A**: Helical flights are essential components in screw conveyors, extruders, augers, and similar machinery that move bulk materials through barrels or housings in manufacturing and processing operations.
