At first sight I understand your drawing is not complete. You should define properties concerning area between air and steel
Can you post your lua script?
I'm designing a router for milling plastics and soft metals as part of my hobby. My fixed end leadscrews will be according the attached outline using 7200B bearings and 2 Belleville washers for preloading. Cutting forces transmitted to the bearings can be about 120N and I pretend to apply 240N...
Thank you 4pipes for your hints ...but before I explain what I pretend to do I want to tell a little bit about my background. I'm an electronic engineer and I have been working with Algor software in the past during more than 10 years for measuring microstrains applied to load cell designs...
Of course drawing is an outline of a cross section and I'm interested in 3D only, not 2D, static stress analysis. My difficulties begin when I have to chose the element type and its size and adequate meshing at the interface between the ball and the surface of the rail and linearguide. Every...
Attached is a section of a Hiwin model AGH25 linear guideways. This bearing is part of a router moving table and I want to predict displacements.
What do you mean by MES?

I want to analyse stress distribution in a surface when I apply loads through a ball but I don't know how to handle this type of problem. How do I stablish in my drawing the type of elements at the initial point of contact between the ball and the surface? The problem I want to solve is to...
