Abstract

Underground mining is a usual business around the globe, especially in India for iron ore, coal, gypsum etc. The main conditions for underground mining are the transportation of the supplies. Heavy duty coaches, screw type conveyors (or) belt conveyors are most commonly used to carry the supplies. Even for workers - who also use hauler system - heavy duty wagons are the most effective transportation method for underground system. This research recommends modelling and analysis by using 3D modelling software Pro/Engineer of wagon chassis, directing vibrational and structural analysis on heavy duty wagon Chassis by putting on various materials. Two materials design the chassis. They are EN-19 and Titanium- Steel. In this examination, work is done for strain, shear stress, von-misses stresses and total deformations. We are also finding stresses established on Chassis, thermal behavior and mode shape of the chassis. All the miners are using belt and screw type conveyors because of consistent replacement and maintenance of heavy duty wagon chassis.
