Front Frame & Rear Frame Lifting & Tie-down Analysis
Project Scope
- Develop a simulation model for the existing front and rear frame assemblies
- Perform load analysis at lifting points (4X):
- Proof Load: 20 kN & Breaking Load: 53 kN
- Perform load analysis at tie-down points:
- 25 X Proof Load: 23 kN (transverse), 74 kN (longitudinal)
- 2 X Breaking Load: 37 kN (transverse), 119 kN (longitudinal)
- Conduct static load analysis to evaluate stresses on the parent material and weld joints under these load conditions
Business Challenges
- Develop detailed simulation models of the frame assemblies and critical components
- Integrate both front and rear frame models into a single analysis
- Apply realistic fixed constraints at frame mounting locations
- Accurately simulate complex loading at lifting and tie-down points
