# Industrial Specification: Loading/Unloading Mechanism

## 1. Technical Definition
Mechanism for transferring materials into and out of the cooling and quenching unit

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-3.0 m/s linear velocity, 0.1-2.0 MPa hydraulic pressure**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure exceeding 2.5 MPa causes seal extrusion, linear velocity exceeding 3.5 m/s induces harmonic vibration at 85 Hz resonance frequency**, Mechanism: **Seal extrusion failure occurs when hydraulic pressure exceeds material yield strength (EPDM rubber: 15 MPa tensile strength, 2.5 MPa extrusion limit). Vibration failure occurs when operational frequency matches natural frequency of cantilevered arm structure (85 Hz), causing fatigue at stress concentration points (notch factor Kt=3.2)**.

### 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.
