This study focused on designing water strainer plates for producing water filter tanks in the industrial sector. The main issues included difficulties in manufacturing strainer plates and problems related to incomplete welding and inadequate painting of support strainer plates. To address these challenges, the project conducted an analysis using various tools to identify and solve problems. This project employed a finite element analysis method to design strainer plates that resolved the mentioned shortcomings. The result showed that the development of strainer plates using a flat bar type (Type-3) with a beam structure had the lowest displacement value, cut production time by 12% and material costs by 25%. This project could potentially elevate the industrial sector to produce water filter tanks, resolve the identified issues, and improve their manufacture.
