STRESS ANALYSIS OF SHAFT OF PTO DRIVE USING FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS

Abstract

In this paper analysis has been carried out to investigate stresses and deformation for the manufacturing the
drive shaft of PTO shaft of Field marshal mini tractor. The shaft is connected with gear and pinion. This is the major
important component to be taken into account while designing. The stress concentration and deformation in the shaft in
the different regions were analyzed. In this paper, the part files and assembly are done by using CREO software and the
analyzing are done by using a ANSYS 15.0 workbench. The results obtained by the stress analysis is found to be good
agreement with analytical stress value and modal analysis i.e., stresses and deformation presented are within the limit
which helpful for pre manufacturing analysis.
