Computer Aided Design of Low Cost Bale Trolley

Material handling systems are commonly used in almost all the industries in all over the world. It is an art and science involving moving, packaging and storing of substances in various forms. This paper contains design of low cost bale trolley used for cotton bale handling. The Bajaj steel industry has manufactured cotton pressing machine 15 BP4818, for that they need to design new trolley according to the size of bale. They have previously designed bale trolley for another press machine (for BP5421) which is not suitable for this new pressing machine (15 BP4818). As more and heavy material was used in previous design which was leading in increasing cost of the bale trolley. Requirement is to improve previous design and to reduce weight according to cotton bale size (which is 175 kg). The Bajaj steel industry is continuously working for higher productivity, cost reduction and quality improvement of the ginning and pressing equipment. As a result of this research can accomplish the requirement of low cost bale trolley for 15 BP 4818 cotton pressing machine. So improve productivity and quality. Since reducing weight and improving design bring significant cost reductions in material handling process.
