VON MISES STRESS SIMULATION AND SAFETY FACTOR ANALYSIS FACTOR OF A GANTRY CRANE WITH A CAPACITY OF 3 TONNES

 ABSTRACT

This study aims to determine the distribution of von Mises stress and the safety factor of gantry cranes. The structural material was AISI 4340 steel, and the hook material was cast iron ASTM Grade 60. Gantry cranes were drawn using Autodesk Inventor 2014 and simulated using Comsol Multiphysics. The loading position given on the hook were 0,85 m, 1 m, and 1,15m. The load given was 29.420 N. The results showed that The loading position of 0.85 m and the 3.39 x 108 N/m2 generated the highest von Mises stress value. lowest resulted from the loading position of 1 m at 2.85 x 108 N/m2.
