Materials for Machinery Connections and Locating Parts
Start with the specific component and its function, then review the material form, processing route and acceptance requirements. Creation Group supports cold-heading wire and shaped materials, with cold-drawn seamless shaped tubes coordinated through partners. Confirm the actual supply scope for the project.
Application 01
Track undercarriage
The pins of track articulation joints must account for wear and fit requirements.
Part appearance and connection structure
- Component Types and Material Options
- Track pins, bushings, and connecting pins.
- Key points of material review
- Dimensions, surface and core property requirements, heat treatment, and wear verification.
Application 02
Engineering cutting tools
View the steel bodies and holders of conical cutting picks alongside their installation on machinery cutting heads.
Part appearance and connection structure
Assembly locations and application scenarios
- Component Types and Material Options
- Material development directions for the steel matrix of the cutter body and the cutter holder.
- Key points of material review

- Fit dimensions, connection structure, heat treatment, and operating loads.
Application 05
Equipment positioning and assembly
Positioning components require dimensioning based on reference datums and assembly methods.
Part appearance and connection structure
- Component Types and Material Options
- Cylindrical locating pins, stepped pins, and locating sleeves.
- Key points of material review
- Dimensional tolerances, straightness, surface finish, and subsequent grinding allowances.
Application 06
Chain drives and conveyors
For riveted chain connections, review the solid pin’s formed head, shank diameter and subsequent heat-treatment requirements.
Part appearance and connection structure
Assembly locations and application scenarios
- Component Types and Material Options
- Solid chain pins and headed pins; cold heading is evaluated based on the specific head and shank geometry.
- Key points of material review
- Wear, heat treatment, fit, and riveting requirements.
Application 07
Industrial roller installation
Focus on the connection, support, and locking structures at the roller mounting end.
Assembly locations and application scenarios
- Component Types and Material Options
- Mounting bolts, headed connecting pins and locking components; assess the roller body and bearings separately.
- Key points of material review
- Thread and fit dimensions, load requirements, surface and core specifications, subsequent machining, and heat treatment.
