Abstract

This paper presents a design of a simplified creep testing machine. During creep testing operation the parts of the
creep testing machine may undergo heavy loads. It is necessary to ensure that the machine parts do not fail during the
operation. The deformation of the parts should be very low otherwise it will lead to errors in the results of the creep test. In
this study a creep testing machine was designed and stress analysis of its important components was done. The study presents
a practical application methodology in FEM analysis for the mechanical parts design. The CATIA Analysis software is used
for FEM analysis.
