Abstract:Traditionally, the beams of mechanical presses are designed and optimized empirically. The empirical design cannot satisfy the increasingly strict requirements on product performance, quality, cost and appearance. This paper attempts to develop a lightweight design for the beam of a straight-side two-point press without sacrificing the strength and stiffness of the structure, thus saving materials and production cost. Our design was mainly developed through multi-goal-driven optimization (multi-GDO) based on A… Show more
