Abstracts: The ELECON Engineering Company Limited manufactures various types of Material Handling Equipment like feeder, conveyor, stacker-reclaimer, electric hoists etc. They are making E.O.T cranes of different capacities. We have selected 5tonne capacity E.O.T crane for our design. In this project we have calculated dimensions for Hook, Rope and Drum (lifting devices) of E.O.T crane for 5 tonne capacity. Then the solid model of Hook and Drum are made on Creo. We have made model of different types of hooks and load is applied on them and done analysis on ANSYS to check the Von misses stress. Based on analysis we have selected optimum cross-section of hook design. After hook, solid modelling of drum is made on Creo and analysis is done for same in ANSYS. Obtained design gives the safe results. So we can say that the lifting system designed in this project is safe for 5 tonnes capacity. We would like to design and analyze 5 tonne capacity E.O.T crane. For this purpose, some parts are calculated by some books and standards.
