Finite Element Analysis and Stress Testing for Telescopic Boom of Telehandler

摘要

The paper is to study telescopic boom material handler, carried out forces analysis on a typical three section telescopic boom, results indicated that the boom working in horizontal position is the most dangerous situation, Adopted the CAD software of SolidWorks to build the three dimensional models of telescopic boom, then used the FEA component of SolidWorks Simulation to carried out finite element analysis(FEA) respectively for three sections of boom, obtained FEA results. By the use of comparing the stress testing results with the finite element analysis results, certificated that the finite element analysis models are reasonable and the finite element method by Simulation is feasible and reliable. All of these works have very important reference value for designing and optimization of the telehandler in the future.
