Abstract

This article presents the results of the structure optimization for the power unit carrying frame of a friction lift by means of numerical calculations using the finite element method (FEM). Optimization analysis covered the frame structure. The analysis was focused on strength optimization with the use of a remote load and on manufacturing optimization with attention paid to the operating times necessary to complete the production process of the carrying frame subassemblies. The Solidworks simulation program was used to optimize the frame in terms of the strength criterion. The program allowed both quantitative and qualitative assessments of the frame material effort before and after optimization.
