The main shaft in an industrial bread dough mixer is


The main shaft in an industrial bread dough mixer is subjected to an alternating bending stress due to the pulley drive system sigma a and an additional mean bending stress when mixing dough sigma m. The shaft is made from a commercially polished steel Phi 1.5" Times 72", with E = 30 msi, Sy = 80 ksi, Su = 100 ksi Construct the S-N curve for the shaft Construct the 106 and 103 constant-life curves (Goodman Diagram) If on average the ratio of mean stress to alternating stress is 1, sigma a/ sigma m = 1, what is the maxi mu m stress allowable to achieve 106 life? (Estimate from your graph) What surface treatment(s) would you recommend to improve shaft fatigue life?
