Description

Abstract: Aeration is a key support operation in agriculture, ecology and the balance of substances in the soil. It provides oxygen for the normal course of biological processes and in the absence of conditions for the development of plants and microorganisms deteriorate, soil compaction or stagnation of water can occur.
This article is related to the process of designing and developing a detailed 3D model of a specialized soil aeration machine. The main goal is to create a digital prototype in the CATIA development environment, which allows for strength sizing of nodes. Modern modeling principles are applied and mechanical stresses at critical units of the structure are simulated. The advantages of 3D modeling have been used to visualize, detect design weaknesses and improve machine efficiency. The results of this modeling provide an opportunity to optimize the geometric parameters of the machine in order to make it more efficient.
