Finite Element Analysis of Link Mechanism in Vertical Carousel Machine

Sammed Arinjay Patil | V. J. Khot ^[3]

Abstract: The purpose of FE Analysis is to model the behavior of the vertical carousel mechanism structure under a system of load. In order to perform the analysis all influencing factors must be considered and determined whether their effects are considerable or negligible on the final results. The degree of accuracy to which any system can be modeled is very much dependent on the level of planning that has been carried out. All the parameters and factors have to be accounted while planning the analysis. Planning an Analysis is directly deals with the improving the results under specified condition. The analysis is carried out in three stages - Pre-Processing, Solution, Post Processing. Modal analysis is also done to obtain response of the mechanism under predetermined excitation. Software packages used for the analysis are CATIA V5, Hypermesh 9.0 and MSC NASTRAN.
