Abstract

Gearbox is an important component of heavy machinery. The gearbox housing plays a vital role as it houses the transmission components. The different components housed are gears, bearings, shafts and oil. The housing contributes largely towards the total weight of the gearbox and hence requires careful design procedure. A variety of forces will be acting on gearbox housing which must be handled critically while designing the gearbox housing. Stress analysis is engineering discipline that determines the stress in materials and structures subjected to static and dynamic forces or loads. FEA method is used to analyse static properties of the case and transmission parts in high-speed class. The consideration of the effects on gearbox in the action of structural load, gearbox stress distribution can be satisfied for working condition by using ANSYS
