Abstract
Multi-bar collapsible drum mechanisms are used in various industries such as steel factories, tire factories, etc. In this article, the analysis of a collapsible multi-bar drum mechanism and its optimization is discussed using SAM software. At first, the modeling of the collapsible mechanism is carried out in Catia, and the motion analysis and possible interferences of the mechanism are evaluated. Then the mechanism is entered and analyzed in the SAM software. In this software, the position of the joints along with their movement path is determined, and therefore, it is possible to optimize the position of the mechanism joints in order to avoid interference of the parts.
