Abstract
Multi-body Finite Element Analysis of an Inclined Scrap Shear with 1100 tons of Capacity
Highlights
Hydraulic scrap shears are used in the metal recycling industries to press and cut long and large volumes of scrap into usable sizes
Inclined scrap shears benefit from the force of gravity to feed the material more
Multi-body finite element (FE) analysis of a commercial inclined scrap shear with a cutting force of 1100 tons instead of single-body FE analysis of members is studied in SW
Summary
Hydraulic scrap shears are used in the metal recycling industries to press and cut long and large volumes of scrap into usable sizes. (Ramamurti et al, 1997) presented the dynamic analysis of a straight guillotine-shearing machine with the FE method. (Wang et al, 2010) analyzed a hydraulic shear's frame and presented the results of its deformation, equivalent stress and strain. (Bohdal and Kukielka, 2014) studied the modelling, analysis, and testing procedure for guillotining process of a sheet metal. They presented simulations using ANSYS/LSDYNA and experimental verifications. Multi-body FE analysis of a commercial inclined scrap shear with a cutting force of 1100 tons instead of single-body FE analysis of members is studied in SW.
