Abstract：
The principle, application and effect of structural optimization design techniques such as finite element method and topology optimization method in the optimization design of reducer box structure, especially in lightweight and low noise design were summarized. The simulation results of filling and solidifying process of reducer casing by casting process analysis software were introduced. The results show that the simulation results can be used to predict the formation, size,distribution and cause of casting defects. It can optimize the casting process quickly and economically, eliminate casting defects, improve casting quality and reduce production cost.
