The Sun Hydraulics CAD (CAD) is a line mount body designed for hydraulic systems. It features a ninety-degree configuration with no specific interface, making it versatile for various applications. The body has a mounting hole diameter of 0.42 inches (10.7 mm) and is designed to accommodate through-hole mounting with 11 holes in total, allowing for secure attachment in complex setups. It supports open cavities of type T3A and uses a 3/4 NPTF port size, which is standard for many hydraulic systems, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration. The construction material is 6061T651 aluminum, chosen for its balance of strength, cost-effectiveness, machinability, availability, and high resistance to corrosion. This makes it suitable for use in environments where durability and longevity are critical without the need for additional surface treatments like anodizing. The design does not include anodizing due to considerations around cost, logistics, consistency in production quality, stamping issues post-anodization, inspection challenges, increased torque requirements during disassembly, and potential reductions in fatigue life due to the brittle nature of anodized surfaces under pressure. These design choices ensure that the CAD model provides reliable performance while maintaining structural integrity over time under typical operational conditions found in hydraulic applications.
