Abstract

Excavator is the most multifunction heavy tool because it can handle other heavy tool such as sloping, dumptruck loading, and breaker. Usually, when doing excavation there is always possibility of breaking of pin in tooth adapter. The aim of this paper is designing bucket excavator using SOLIDWORK 2016 software and doing analysis with ANSYS R15.0 software using finite element analysis (FEA) method. This paper emphasize about the development that is done in the tip of excavator bucket teeth based on the calculation and ANSYS simulation with maximum shear stress result which is in the amount of 50,437 Mpa with maximum deformation level is being found at the part of excavator bucket head.

Highlights

  • Excavator is heavy tool consisting of arm, boom, and bucket which is pushed by hydrolyzed strength of the handled diesel machine and trackshoe

  • As the name implies, an excavator is a piece of heavy equipment that is commonly used in mining work, construction work and work that requires lifting that can be too heavy for humans [1]

  • The geometry of the trapezoidal bucket excavator has been obtained by an extrusion in SOLIDWORK 2016

Summary

Introduction

Excavator is heavy tool consisting of arm, boom (shoulder), and bucket which is pushed by hydrolyzed strength of the handled diesel machine and trackshoe. Excavator has multifunction ability because it can handle various of other heavy tool works. Using excavator can increase some necessities in the daily life, but in its application, there is no checking works of the emergency possibilities while it is used, so that the damage of teeth bucket excavator can occur when excavation process. In this case explains that sometimes the damage of teeth excavator part because of some handling is not appropriate by operator. It is necessary of doing pressure calculation at the tip of part the bucket excavator teeth using finite element method which aims to decrease the damage
