WIRE BENDING OPERATION

TITLE : WIRE BENDING OPERATION

OBJECTIVE: To perform wire bending operation on different materials of wire.

• At first added the material from libraray of ansys work bench.
• Then look for the geometric error on space claim.
• Then I look for contacts i.e between wire- lever and wire -wheel.
• Now I go for meshing and use face sizing and sphere of influence option to genarate mesh.
• Now I put different boundary conditions in the model and run it for 8 steps.
• Now request for the results.
• The followings are findings from the solver.

CASE 1 : ALUMINIUM ALLOY

Here the wire material used is alumunium alloy.

CASE 2: COPPER ALLOY.

Here the material for wire used is copper alloy.

CASE 3 : MAGNESIUM ALLOY.

RESULT: EQUIVALENT STRESS EQUIVALENT STRAIN

CASE 1 307.25 MPa 0.0044044 mm/mm

CASE 2 338.78 MPa 0.0031001 mm/mm

CASE 3 226.67 MPa 0.0052505 mm/mm

CONCLUSION: Stress value is higher for Copper alloy material and strain in case of Magnesium alloy.
