EOT crane consists of hoist mechanism, electric motors, end carriage, upper and lower block, bearing, drum, wire rope, pulley, hook, girder etc. Hook is used for lifting the load and it is one of the most stressed component of EOT crane, so it has been selected as an area of interest. Design of hook depends upon load lifting capacity, which may be ranging from 10 kN to as per requirement. Most commonly used capacity is 50 kN. So, in this work, we are considering 50 kN as the working load lifting capacity. In this study, Modeling, Design, Analysis and Optimization of EOT Crane hook is carried out. Pro-Engineer software has been used for modeling and ANSYS software has been used for obtaining analysis results. From the stress diagram, dimensions are optimized as per stress pattern and saving in the material has been carried out without disturbing the stability and safety, as per IS code and sound engineering practice.

INTRODUCTION A crane is hoisting device used for lifting or lowering load by means of a drum or lift wheel around which rope or chain wraps. EOT crane is a mechanical lifting device used for lifting or lowering the material and also used for moving the loads
