Abstract

It simulates boom process chain in bending and welding. It obtains deformation of the plate after bending, and predicts welding deformation of the boom considering bending. At the same time, using Metra SCAN, finite element model is verified correctly by experiments. The results show that it occurs 4.3mm deviation in the 90o bending angle near the middle position, and 4.8mm deviation in the 110o bending angle. It is consistent in deformation trend, and proves favorably correctness of finite element model of bending. Deformation trend is contracted inwards. Peak value is located at the free end of weld position, and is 1.66mm. It is 1.9mm deviation in the side of boom. The deviation is mainly located in the middle position of 90o bending angle. The error between simulation results and experimental results are within 3mm. It meets the requirement of engineering application. It is consistent in deformation trend. It proves accuracy of finite element model of process chain in bending and welding.
