DESIGN AND STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR ANALYSIS OF DEDICATED HOOK FOR CRANK SHAFT HANDLING MACHINE

Crank shaft machining on two end faces by dedicated tooling solution is designed with conceptual    model and full proof assembly structure. Work gives conceptual model and mechanical design of  special  application fixture  hook made for  crane which is to be  used  overhead  material handling application in  component  machining  automation. Crank shaft  is to be  machined for drilling operation  executes in line on end faces of the component  so  this hook gives perfect  fixturing  with full proof poka yoke   to move on overhead sliding  panel provided in  shop floor. design and  product development  considered with the  manufacturability and practical  feasibility. Structural weldment is the out coming   function for this work of innovation .boundary conditions are examined and applied for analysis on actual behavior of the structure in working conditions. Loads are calculating by considering input parameters. Structural behavior analysis done in CAE tool to prove its  workability.
