## 5. Engineering Risks & FAQ
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 
- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are used in the track system for durability?
**A**: Our track system uses high-grade rubber compound for the track belt, steel alloy for structural components like the drive sprocket and frame, and polyurethane for wear-resistant rollers and idlers.

### Q: How does the track system improve machine performance?
**A**: The track system enhances mobility on varied terrain, provides superior traction for heavy loads, and distributes weight evenly to reduce ground pressure and prevent sinking in soft conditions.

### Q: What maintenance does the track system require?
**A**: Regular inspection of track belt tension, cleaning debris from rollers and idlers, and checking for wear on sprockets and components ensures optimal performance and extends system lifespan.

## 6. Manufacturing Compliance
- ISO 9001:2015 QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
