New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/29/2018 -- Automotive Crankshaft Materials Market: Definition and Introduction

A crankshaft is a mechanical component that converts the reciprocating motion of the pistons into rotational motion. Crankshafts are key components in internal combustion engines and while they are commonly found in automotive engines. The crankshaft in an automotive engine system is the link that connects the engine with the drive shaft, thus playing a critical role in the movement of the vehicle. Selection of automotive crankshaft materials play crucial role in performance of crankshafts. The combustion of fuel in the engine cylinders creates pressure on the pistons, which move upwards and downwards in a reciprocating motion trajectory. Combustion pressure on the piston can range from around 1450 psi (approx. 100 bar) for spark-ignition engines to 2900 psi (approx. 200 bar) for compression-ignition engines. The piston is connected to the crankshaft at a perpendicular angle using a connecting rod. The other end of the crankshaft is connected to a flywheel, which stores excess energy produced by crankshaft during the power stroke of the engine and supplies back the energy during times of inertia. The flywheel is further connected to the power transmission system of the vehicle through the gearbox. Thus, the crankshaft plays an important role in the ultimate movement of the vehicle.

Considering these aspects of the automotive crankshaft, the study of the automotive crankshaft materials market becomes an important read.
