Abstract
Whenever the sudden motion take place in a counterweight balancing of machine tool due to inertia effect of the heavy mass of machine tool head with counterweight exert large amount of forces in the chain link and in order to prevent failure of the chain vertical motion of the machine tool head take place at lower velocity, by increasing the efficiency of a leaf chain, we could further increases in the vertical motion of machine tool head and is still a challenges for the designer to provide not only the better stress resistance or wear resistance of a chain but also the weight saving in a chain material during its design, this could increases the chain performance as well as it could be cost efficient. The design parameters on which the efficiency of the leaf chain depend should be considered by the designer, by analyzing fatigue life and strength of a leaf chain. The CAD model of the leaf chain is developed using a Creo parametric software and finite element analysis is conducted by the help of ANSYS software, under which analysis is done by plotting sensitivities graph for the various design parameters and the factor effecting strength and fatigue life of a leaf chain, considering effect on chain link plate under a Response surface Methodology.
