Fixtures

Advanced cylindrical face fixture inside bearing hole to fixes movement in the z-axis. Virtual walls made on the smaller edge to stop movement in the x-axis

 

Loading

Forces in the y and z axis were combined together to create a single resultant force

Based off the contact surfaces with the spindle, forces in x direction were either placed on the front or through the back. In the back, split lines were used to make force only act on the area where the spindle connects.

Moments work around an axis going through the middle and act on the surfaces that the spindle would make contact with.

 

Mesh

Mesh concentrations around the bearing holes and inside spindle hole.
