V. RESULTS ANALYSIS
A. Stress Analysis
As the structure is subjected to force action, the Mises
stress and the first principal stress overall distribution are
respectively shown as Fig. 3 and Fig. 4. It is obvious that the
maximum Mises stress values is 139MPa at lower beam, and
the first principal stress is 188MPa. The maximum Mises
stress on the upper beam is 17.3MPa, which located on the
connection of the columns and the beams. The maximum
Mises stress on the movable beam is 93.4MPa , which located
on the stiffened plates, as shown in Fig. 5; the first principal
stress are respectively 24MPa and 99.7MPa, as shown in Fig.
Fig. 1 The overall structure of the three-dimensional model of the hydraulic 6; the maximum Mises stress of columns is 69.4MPa, the first
machine principal stress is 85.9MPa, strength does not exceed the
allowable stress of their material.

VI. CONCLUSIONS
Use the ANSYS software to do the finite element
simulation for the overall structure of hydraulic press, by the
strain diagram of the stress, can understand that: the structure
strength of the hydraulic press is enough, it does not belong to
the difficulty of design; but the rigidity of the upper and the
