Diseño y simulación de un elevador de carga portable con una capacidad de 300 kg y 4 m de altura para la empresa encofrados Don Franch

Abstract

The degree project focuses on the design and simulation of a portable cargo elevator with a capacity of 300 kg and a maximum height of 4 m, intended to meet the needs of the company ENCOFRADOS DON FRANCH, specialized in the rental of formwork, scaffolding and construction equipment. In order to understand the current panorama of cargo elevators, an exhaustive investigation and collection of information will be carried out on the different ranges that are found in the national internal sector, as well as their application in the industrial field and performance. The project includes an analysis of essential alternatives in the design of a prototype that can lift both people and materials without exceeding the maximum specified load. Through the design and selection of suitable mechanical elements for the elevator, the simulation of the most viable prototype that meets the client's requirements will be carried out. Likewise, the total associated costs will be evaluated, including obtaining components, manufacturing costs, engineering design and contingencies, to determine the economic viability of the design and subsequent construction of the elevator.
