description This study paper looks into the structural integrity and failure mechanisms of washing machine top frames, with the goal of improving household appliance durability and reliability. Critical regions prone to fatigue failure were identified using SolidWorks software. Stress analysis and deformation analysis revealed the failure prone areas but upon assessing the costs associated with designing new molds for modified design and performing the breakeven calculation, we decided to go with an approach of using an alternate material which will not cause any change in existing mold. Polycarbonate (PC) with 50% long glass fiber reinforcement, were investigated to improve fatigue resistance. A new top frame of this material was made along with existing material ABS. Testing on a door simulator machine demonstrated a considerable improvement in durability, with the PC-based top frame demonstrating a 1128% increase in cycle endurance over the ABS counterpart. Top frame made up of ABS broke after 297 cycles and PC with 50% long glass fiber top frame broke after 3697 cycles. These findings highlight the significance of systematic design optimization and material selection for assuring long-term performance and safety in washing machine top frames.

Las regiones críticas propensas a la falla de fatiga se identificaron utilizando el software SolidWorks. El análisis del estrés y el análisis de deformación revelaron las áreas propensas a la falla, pero al evaluar los costos asociados con el diseño de nuevos moldes para el diseño modificado y realizar el cálculo de equilibrio, decidimos ir con un enfoque de usar un material alternativo que no causará ningún cambio en el molde existente. Se investigaron policarbonato (PC) con un refuerzo de fibra de vidrio 50% largo para mejorar la resistencia a la fatiga. Se realizó un nuevo marco superior de este material junto con el material de material existente. Las pruebas en una máquina del simulador de puerta demostraron una mejora considerable en la durabilidad, con el marco superior basado en PC demostrando un aumento del 1128% en la resistencia del ciclo sobre la contraparte de ABS. El marco superior compuesto por ABS se rompió después de 297 ciclos y PC con un marco superior de fibra de vidrio de vidrio al 50% que se rompió después de 3697 ciclos. Estos hallazgos resaltan la importancia de la optimización de diseño sistemático y la selección de materiales para asegurar el rendimiento y la seguridad a largo plazo en los marcos superiores de las lavadoras.Este documento de estudo analisa os mecanismos de integridade estrutural e falhas dos quadros superiores da máquina de lavar, com o objetivo de melhorar a durabilidade e a confiabilidade dos aparelhos domésticos. Regiões críticas propensas a falhas de fadiga foram identificadas usando o software SolidWorks. A análise de estresse e a análise de deformação revelaram as áreas propensas a falhas, mas, ao avaliar os custos associados ao projeto de novos moldes para o design modificado e executar o cálculo do ponto de equilíbrio, decidimos seguir uma abordagem de usar um material alternativo que não causará nenhuma mudança no molde existente. O policarbonato (PC) com reforço de fibra de vidro de 50% de comprimento foi investigado para melhorar a resistência à fadiga. Um novo quadro superior desse material foi fabricado junto com o material de material existente. Os testes em uma máquina de simulador de porta demonstraram uma melhoria considerável na durabilidade, com a estrutura superior baseada em PC demonstrando um aumento de 1128% na resistência ao ciclo sobre a contraparte do ABS. A estrutura superior composta de ABS quebrou após 297 ciclos e PC com quadro superior de fibra de vidro de 50% de comprimento quebrou após 3697 ciclos. Esses achados destacam o significado da otimização sistemática do projeto e da seleção de materiais para garantir o desempenho e a segurança a longo prazo nos quadros superiores da máquina de lavar.Universidad de Montevideo2024-12-132025-01-21T17:25:02Z2025-01-21T17:25:02Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer reviewed articlesArtículos evaluados por paresArtigos revistos por parespublishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttp://revistas.um.edu.uy/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/142110.36561/ING.27.10https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12806/2681Memoria Investigaciones en Ingeniería; No. 27 (2024); 145-160Memoria Investigaciones en Ingeniería; Núm. 27 (2024); 145-160Memoria Investigaciones en Ingenieria; n. 27 (2024); 145-1602301-11062301-109210.36561/ING.27reponame:REDUMinstname:Universidad de Montevideoinstacron:Universidad de Montevideospahttp://revistas.um.edu.uy/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/1421/1806http://revistas.um.edu.uy/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/1421/1807http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAtribución 4.0 Internacionaloai:redum.um.edu.uy:20.500.12806/26812026-06-16T07:04:31Z
