Static analysis and strength calculation of drive shaft of large-scale cone crusher

The paper analyzes the causes of failures of coarse crushers “KKD 1500-180” at JSC “Almalyk MMC”. It has been established that the most common cause of these failures is a drive shaft failure. Static analysis of the strength of the drive shaft was performed using Autodesk Inventor 2020 CAD software. A dangerous shaft section was found, and recommendations aimed at improving its operability were proposed
