Abstract

In the manufacturing industry, raw materials need to be transported from one manufacturing
stage to another. Material coping with systems is designed such that they facilitate clean,
speedy and secure loading and unloading. For instance roller conveyor machine can be hired
for clean and secure coping with of materials. The goal of the venture is to design a gravity
roller conveyor device in moped engine meeting line of vehicles Production Company. The
existing conveyor system was studied thoroughly and its drawbacks were analyzed. Gravity
roller conveyor system is designed to minimize the overall cycle time of the process and make
the process to complete in one single stroke. Each and every components of the conveyor
system is designed considering their functionality. Detailed drawing is also prepared using
solid works. Geometrical model of each components including assembly of the same were
generated in solid works. Linear static analysis, contact stress analysis, model analysis and
life estimation and life estimation were carried out in ANSYS with proper loading and
boundary condition.
