Abstract

Composite materials are widely used in engineering field. Connecting rod is an important part which is a connecting link between piston and rotary crankshaft. In I.C. Engine a connecting rod is subjected to tensile, compressive and fatigue stresses. A vast research is going on in the field of metallurgy for selection of material for particular application. In this we are going to manufacture a connecting rod using Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) Technique. The main objective of using MMC connecting rod is that it is light in weight, more durability, high strength and stiffness. By using this weight of pedal box assembly is reduced and forces acting on connecting rod are also minimized. In this the analysis is done on Ansys software. Accordingly, we manufactured the component on the basis of result we obtained.
