FE Analysis and Optimization of Excavator Bucket Teeth
Excavator machines, also called earth removers, are extensively seen in agriculture and construction, industries, mining works, and for trenching purposes. During the process of excavation, the unknown resistive forces act by the earth surfaces to the bucket tooth which is transformed to the other parts of the bucket. The increase magnitude of the resistive forces affects the parts of the machine and causes effective failure in the excavation process. The present work deals with the finite element analysis (FEA) as a tool for the static as well as fatigue analysis of excavator bucket and shape optimization of bucket teeth for three different design profiles. Three different types of teeth shape, namely standard teeth, chisel teeth, and flat penetrator teeth, are designed. It is observed that the bucket with standard teeth experiences minimum equivalent stress with the highest safety factor.
