Abstract

Abstract: Semiautomatic Electric Overhead Travelling (EOT) Crane is one of the essential industrial equipment for material handling job. In recent years little attention has been paid to the optimal design of Heavy Electric Overhead Travelling Crane Bridges. Most of the crane manufacturers have standardized the single dimensioned box section for multiple spans and duties of Crane Bridges for manufacturing simplicity. Owing to the recent upward trend in the price of structural materials not to mention the demanding dimensions of heavy-duty crane box girders, utilization of modern design optimization tools is inevitable. This project demonstrates design optimization of EOT crane industrial box subjected to rolling loads. A simple and innovative procedure has been introduced to use for optimization of various parameters of the loading and travelling parameters. In this case study we have tried to develop a model of overhead pick and place semiautomatic mechanism.
