Solid Edge Lightweight Design of Cantilever Brackets
The use of cantilever brackets to support equipment is quite typical,Solid Edge ST10 software was applied to analyze and optimize the structure of the cantilever bracket.First,a finite element structural analysis was conducted,obtain a maximum stress of 29.6 MPa,on this basis,optimization design calculations were carried out,obtained 16 solutions,after screening,the"Plan 16"was identified as the most material efficient and fully load-bearing solution.The results indicate that:the optimized cantilever bracket can meet the given conditions,the quality of the cantilever bracket in Plan 16 is 92.3%of the original,saves material costs.
