Contatc Analysis on Thread Connections of 32.8MN PRESS Columns

Abstract

Automatic hydraulic press is widely used for pressing ceramic wall and floor tiles, the four columns of its frame withstand the all work force when it works, so the columns are the key compartments of the frame, and its work performance has an important impact on the structural performance of the entire automatic hydraulic press. Took the column thread connection of 32.8MN automatic hydraulic press as research object, established axisymmetric finite element model and carried on contact finite element analysis for it by using the large commercial finite element software ANSYS to gain the stress distribution of the column’s thread connection. The results and discussion can provide reference for designing automatic hydraulic press columns. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i7.2847
