Abstract

This paper analyse through the finite elements method (FEM) the hydraulic motor casing from horizontal Hydraulic Press – 2 MN. The analysis of hydraulic motor casing of horizontal Hydraulic Press – 2 MN was made for determination of displacements, deformations and the factors of safety distribution. A three-dimensional model of the hydraulic motor casing with a complex geometry was generated based on the designed data. Finite elements analysis was performed using COSMOSWorks software. Results predicted by the finite element method show that the presented method is efficient and accurate and in good agreement with the theoretical and experimental values.
