The main objective of this study is to design the lifting fixture for the centre housing component using Catia to avoid the usage of a belt for lifting purpose and also to analyse the minimum and maximum stress of the designed fixture for the given load using Ansys software. Fixture design is a vital role in handling the production side and it minimizes lifting problems during loading and unloading time. Belt usage has eliminated accidents and is easily operated by the operators. Thus the concluded result of two materials, is low alloy steel (SAE-AISI 4130) which has good tolerable nature in comparison the cast iron (ASTM GRADE 25) for all the tests by Catia V5-V6 and Ansys R18.0.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
