Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Cone Crusher Model
Home Case Studies Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Cone Crusher Model
Project Scope
- Develop an FEA model of the cone crusher and perform static and modal analysis
- Analyze the structural integrity of the skids for both jaw and cone crushers
Business Challenges
- Preserve original geometry while meshing the full assembly
- Account for gear alignment and shaft orientation to avoid resonance and ensure durability
ARi’s Solutions
- Used second-order tetrahedral elements for high-accuracy meshing
- Performed modal analysis to identify critical vibration modes
- Applied varying load cases during static analysis to simulate real-world crushing angles
- Evaluated skid structures under operational loads for strength verification
ARi’s Value Proposition
- Weak Points Exposed: Analysis revealed structural risks early, allowing proactive design fixes
- Reduced Testing Costs: Simulation minimized the need for physical prototypes and trials
- Improved Reliability: Ensured structural integrity by analyzing vibration modes and load paths
- Faster Delivery: Accelerated design validation helped the customer stay ahead of schedule
