Trolley is mostly used in industries to carry product with safety but most of the trolleys are made by vender with ISO standard dimensions with lot of factors of safety. The purpose of this work is to develop the material handling trolleys using Theoretical and analysis basis with validate the design. The main area of focus in this project is to reduce the weight and cost of the trolleys by designing a new development design. The existing trolley designed by the industry uses heavy trolleys without considering loading conditions which in turn leads to a higher factor of safety increasing the overall cost of the Trolleys. Trolley is such that they don’t usually check for the design optimization and but if we check the costing of the trolleys that create space for improvement, so FEA gives more pleasure to get optimize design without doing prototype testing carries more cost. As we know in inventory, we have to accommodate more products in less area so stacking is important factor for trolley, so we are checking this design for stacking load carrying capacity. This work presents a finite element analysis of a procedure to model and simulate trolleys used in the automotive parts supplier industry, especially in car component manufacturing companies for shifting or transporting the different parts. In this study, the design is carried out using CATIA software, Pre-processing work such as meshing and setting static loading condition has been set up in Hypermesh and static analysis of the trolley is performed using finite element software. The Von-misses yield principle has been used to determine the distribution of stress intensity. The proposed model has better results consider the existing model of the trolley
