3D Modeling of mechanical structures in the aim of real-time simulation of the product dynamic behavior, using computer performing software, is a necessity. In the paper there are presented some aspects regarding the 3D modeling FEM analysis and also the detailed design of a testing device, to be used in tribological tests of small pieces. First there are presented some aspects of the device virtual modeling and drafting, using CATIA software. Then are defined the geometrical and kinematical restrictions between the parts. Finally, there are presented some aspects of the Finite Element Analysis and the results of this, using ANSYS software. In the final part of the paper, there are presented the conclusion.
Keywords— 3D modeling, detail design, finite element analysis, simulation.
