# Industrial Specification: Rotating Cab

## 1. Technical Definition
The operator's compartment that rotates 360 degrees on a mini excavator.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0-360 degrees continuous rotation, 0.5-2.5 RPM rotational speed, -20°C to +50°C ambient temperature**. Failure boundary: **Slewing ring bearing radial play exceeding 0.15 mm, gear backlash exceeding 0.08 mm, hydraulic motor pressure drop below 12 MPa**, Mechanism: **Brinelling of slewing ring raceways under cyclic loading exceeding 250 kN·m, gear tooth pitting fatigue at contact stress &gt;1500 MPa, hydraulic fluid viscosity breakdown at &gt;80°C**.

### 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.
