Abstract:
The wheel assembly is an integral part of Electric Overhead Travelling Crane systems that are intended to move in a guided path. Design is an important industrial activity which influences the quality of the product. There is research gap of optimization of track wheel. It is always beneficial to optimize any component for the purpose where it is applicable. Optimization techniques carried out for track wheel to find out the optimum material distribution. Based on these optimization outputs, new practical designs were generated and FEanalysis was carried out for the optimized design to verify the stress induced on track wheeland compare with original design. A solver mode in analysis software calculates the stresses, deflections, bending moments. The finite element method as well as optimization techniques were included as basis of mathematical simulation. With these tools, optimization of track wheel carried out.
