# Industrial Specification: Locking Pallet

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical component within an actuator arm that securely holds and positions the arm during operation.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 NÂ·m clamping torque, 0.01-0.05 mm positional tolerance**. Failure boundary: **Clamping torque &lt;0.3 NÂ·m or &gt;2.5 NÂ·m, positional deviation &gt;0.1 mm**, Mechanism: **Hysteresis in locking mechanism due to spring relaxation beyond Hooke's law elastic limit (Ïƒ_y &gt; 450 MPa for spring steel), causing permanent deformation and loss of clamping force**.

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
