An optimal design was developed for housing of a 50-ton hydraulic breaker. A four-factor, two-level design was created using the full factorial design, and it was confirmed that the safety factor, the response value, exhibited a curvature. As the curvature was confirmed, a higher-order experiment, a response surface analysis was performed. Based on the Minitab"s optimized prediction of the safety factor and weight, the actual analysis was performed using ANSYS Workbench, the finite element analysis program. As a result, the safety factor was 2.03 and the weight was 3222.2 kg, which was almost consistent with the Minitab’s prediction. The safety factor decreased from 2.33 to 2.03 compared to that in the initial model, but the optimization model can also be judged as being safe because the safety factor was set to 2.00. The weight was reduced by 119.1 kg, from 3341.3 to 3222.2 kg.
In this paper, the boom structure of a telescopic boom-type forklift truck was analyzed using ANSYS, a finite element analysis program. As a result, 494.22 MPa exceeded 456.08 MPa, allowable stress of the material, in the second boom. Thus, structural analysis was performed by reinforcing the thickness of the boom and stress was reduced. The experiment was conducted by selecting four factors of the thickness of the boom T1, T2, T3, and T4. Through response surface analysis, the curvature of the factors for stress was confirmed, and T1 was the most influential factor. Through regression equations from the variance analysis of each response, response maximization was performed to optimize mass and stress. As a result, 467.65 MPa was predicted. This exceeded allowable stress of 456.08 MPa. To obtain the result that does not exceed allowable stress, the mass was fixed at 118 kg, the initial value, and multiple response optimization was performed to limit target value and minimize stress. As a result, 432.96 MPa was expected to occur, and structural analysis resulted in 428.87 MPa stress demonstrating 13.22% reduction of stress compared to the existing model, and it is safe because allowable stress was less than 456.08 MPa.

Due to urbanization, it is difficult to secure a large knuckle crane workspace. To solve this problem, we developed a small knuckle crane combined with a one-ton truck. In this study, the safety of small knuckle cranes is evaluated through Finite Element Analysis. Shape optimization was performed using the Design of Experiment for parts speculated to have failed from fatigue. As a result, maximum equivalent stress of a plate in link speculated to have failed from fatigue was reduced by approximately 84.2%.

Due to urbanization, parameters such as large size and height constrain the workspace of aerial lift truck. An aerial lift truck with reduced height was developed to decrease the telescopic boom. Based on FEM Analysis, the failure was localized to the shaft of the boom joint. Shape optimization was performed using the Design of Experiment based on three design factors. As a result, the maximum equivalent stress of boom joint was reduced by about 32.33%.
