Design And Analysis of Connecting Rod Using 42CrMo4 (High grade steel) Titanium Ti 6Al 4V (Grade 5) STA; Aluminum 6061 T6; 4340 alloy steel and Maraging Steel
A connecting rod is an engine component that transfers motion from the piston to the crankshaft and functions as a lever arm. Its primary function is to transmit the push and pull from the piston pin to the crank pin, thus converting the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotary motion of the crank. This thesis describes designing and Analysis of connecting rod. In this drawing is drafted from the calculations. A parametric model of Connecting rod is modeled and analyzed using Autodesk INVENTOR PROFESSIONAL 2014. Finite element analysis of connecting rod is done by considering the materials, viz. 42CrMo4 (High grade steel) Titanium Ti 6Al 4V (Grade 5) STA; Aluminum 6061 T6; 4340 alloy steel and Maraging Steel The best combination of parameters like Von misses Stress and strain, Deformation, Factor of safety and weight reduction for two wheeler piston were done in Autodesk INVENTOR PROFESSIONAL 2014.
