Abstract: A track bolt for an undercarriage system includes a head portion. The track bolt also includes a body portion extending from the head portion. The track bolt further includes a piezo ceramic sensor mounted in a counter bore provided in the track bolt. The piezo ceramic sensor measures a value of track bolt elongation such that the value of the track bolt elongation is used to calculate a clamping force in the track bolt. The track bolt includes a plug member disposed in the counter bore for sealing the piezo ceramic sensor.

Abstract: A track link having a wear sensing device is disclosed. The track link may include a link body including a surface, a cavity, and at least one hole configured to receive a track pin. The track link may further include the wear sensing device positioned in the cavity. The wear sensing device may be configured to generate a signal indicative of a wear parameter of the surface. The track link may further include a containment mechanism configured to secure the wear sensing device in position inside the cavity.

Abstract: A track pin may comprise a body that includes a generally cylindrical configuration defining an axis of rotation, a circumferential direction and a radial direction, the body defining a first end, a second end and a peripheral surface extending from the first end to the second end. The peripheral surface may include a first lobed portion spaced axially away from the first end and the second end and including a series of convex arcuate segments and concave arcuate segments joined to each other tangentially, forming an undulating surface.
