Abstract

The design and fabrication of power transmission systems play a crucial role in ensuring efficient energy transfer across mechanical components. This paper presents a comprehensive study on the conceptualization, design, and manufacturing of a robust power transmission system tailored for industrial and automotive applications. The methodology includes material selection, system modelling, stress analysis, and performance evaluation to optimize efficiency and durability. Various transmission mechanisms, such as belt drives, chain drives, and gear systems, are analysed based on load-bearing capacity, frictional losses, and maintenance requirements. The fabricated system is tested for operational efficiency and reliability under different working conditions. Experimental results validate the design's effectiveness in reducing power losses while ensuring smooth mechanical transmission. This research contributes to advancing power transmission technology by integrating innovative materials and manufacturing techniques, leading to improved mechanical efficiency and sustainability.
