Abstract
Automotive wheels can be classified into 3 segments according to the material used in their manufacture: there are those made of light alloy (basically aluminum), those made of steel (can be extra mild steel, low carbon steel, HSLA or dual phase steels). However, we will only look at steel and alloy wheels, whereas both types of wheels (made of steel and made of alloy (aluminum alloys) have characteristics that together would yield a part with a balance of excellent mechanical properties, a cost not so different from the general presented by the market and a satisfactory aesthetic quality, it was decided to make a study with the purpose of making possible the production of a part that presents improvements in the manufacture of the two analyzed wheels. (Fe-C) and light alloy (aluminum), in addition to studying possible failures and simulating s concerning wheels with the aid of solidworks software.
