ABSTRACT
This paper describes strength evaluation for D4CS4 FA20.25 bracket, mounted in tractors of the URSUS Company. The analysis was based on stress modelling, supported by the finite element method (FEM). It was assumed in the model that the studied element was made of ductile cast iron and subject to three forces at three support points. Stress distribution simulations were run for various boundary conditions in order to identify the areas most exposed to cracking hazards. On this basis, engineering changes were introduced to increase the mechanical strength of the bracket with maximum cost-effectiveness of its production.
