Pinion Gear & Housing

Titan Pinion Gear & Housing system for powertrain axles applications. This is a two-station assembly system for pinion shaft to the housing assembly for a line of wheel loaders for the construction industry. First station is a servo pressing station locating cups in pinion housing and bearing cones on pinion gear shaft. Second station tightens nut on pinion shaft to remove endplay and set preload on tapered roller bearings. Rolling torque is measured automatically to verify bearing preload. Manual material handling with electronically controlled assembly operations. Each step must be completed before operator moves to next stage.
Axle Shafts & Housing

Titan Axle Shafts & Housing system for powertrain axles applications. Titan has created several systems for assembling and testing large tractor rear axle assemblies. The system allows an operator to insert tapered roller bearings and shaft into a cast housing assembly. A pressing tool cart features the different gauge heads and assembly tools. The Test Stand directs the operator where to put the axle shaft, where the bearings go on the shaft. The shaft goes into the housing using an overhead crane. The system performs a comprehensive test of the axle, checking for rolling torque and preload on the bearings. The system also helps the operator select the right shims when compensation is required. The system walks the operator through the assembly process to ensure that the axle is correctly assembled before it is connected to the tractor.
Truck – Manual Shift

Titan Truck – Manual Shift system for powertrain transmission applications. Designed and built to improve performance, profitability, and quality, our custom-built truck – manual shift verification & validation and automated assembly systems are second to none. On the leading edge of automation and validation testing, our systems are equipped with an array of sensors (powered by sophisticated data acquisition software) that can check proper assembly, mechanical efficiency, parasitic drag, etc. Almost completely automated, our test systems accept a wide range of products/models and require minimal operator interaction.
Tractor CVT Transmission

Titan Tractor CVT Transmission system for powertrain transmission applications. Designed and built to improve performance, profitability, and quality, our custom-built tractor CVT transmission verification & validation and automated assembly systems are second to none. On the leading edge of automation and validation testing, our systems are equipped with an array of sensors (powered by sophisticated data acquisition software) that can check proper assembly, mechanical efficiency, parasitic drag, etc. Almost completely automated, our test systems accept a wide range of products/models and require minimal operator interaction.
Class 3-8 Truck – Automatic

Titan Class 3-8 Truck – Automatic system for powertrain transmission applications. Test stations designed and built to simulate a fully functional commercial truck. Using two VFD Controlled Electrical Motors these stations simulate the input shaft from the engine and the output shaft from the drivetrain to make these transmission feel like they are at home in the truck they are meant for. Automatic transmissions commanded via CAN bus from a simulated Driver Interface Device (DID) to engage FNR gears. The transmission determines shifting points based on input/output shaft speeds, requested acceleration, and torque. These are CAN-based systems with the transmission controller and the engine simulation control working in harmony to apply the right amount of torque, engage/disengage the clutch, command the shift, and to smoothly transition from one gear to the next. The system includes a full computer-based NVH system incorporating accelerometers, microphones, laser vibrometers, torque and speed sensors. Live data is captured for the full test of the transmission, recording live data at up to 10khz per channel.
Electric Drive Gearbox

Titan Electric Drive Gearbox system for powertrain transmission applications. Designed and built to improve performance, profitability, and quality, our custom-built electric drive gearbox verification & validation and automated assembly systems are second to none. On the leading edge of automation and validation testing, our systems are equipped with an array of sensors (powered by sophisticated data acquisition software) that can check proper assembly, mechanical efficiency, parasitic drag, etc. Almost completely automated, our test systems accept a wide range of products/models and require minimal operator interaction.
Wet Clutch

Titan Wet Clutch system for powertrain transmission applications. Custom test station designed and built to test large commercial truck wet clutches. These hydraulic clutches rely on non-contact engagement to almost eliminate wear and tear by compressing oil forming a bond between the clutch plates. This test station fully functionally tests engagement/disengagement, lockup, and hysteresis.
CVT Transmission Front Cover

Titan CVT Transmission Front Cover system for powertrain transmission applications. This is a five-station assembly line for the front portion of a tractor transmission. The system aids manual operation of 1-5 operators depending on production throughput requirements. Each station uses manual material handling, but assembly operations are electronically controlled to assure each step is completed before the operator can move on to the next. It assembles various tapered roller bearings, shafts, gear sets, oil tubes, and bearing carriers to the main casting assembly. Bearing preload is measured through shaft rolling torques which are critical for product quality.
Transmission Drop Box

Titan Transmission Drop Box system for powertrain transmission applications. Single station assembly press for the front portion of a tractor transmission that aids manual operation for one operator. The system aides manual operation for one operator. The station uses manual material handling but assembly operations are electronically controlled to assure each step is completed before the operator can move on to the next. Components assembled include tapered roller bearings, shafts, gear sets, oil tubes, and bearing carriers to the main casting assembly.
Combine Transmission Assembly

Titan Combine Transmission Assembly system for powertrain transmission applications. This is a single station assembly press for the front portion of a combine transmission. The system aides manual operation for one operator.
