Abstract: The technology of plastic film mulching is widely applied in Xinjiang, but it also brings about serious issues of residual film pollution. Currently, the 1MSF-2.0 residual film recovery machine can effectively address the problem. However, it faces challenges such as high overall machine weight and noticeable frame vibrations, which affect the stability of the entire machine operation. The frame, as the installation foundation, needs to bear loads and impact. Therefore, the reliability of the frame is crucial for the stability of the entire machine. Improving the frame’s vibration is of great importance. In response to the significant vibration issues during the operation of the 1MSF-2.0 residual film recovery machine, this paper utilized Workbench 2020 R2 to establish a finite element model of the machine frame and conducted static analysis to obtain strength information, thereby initially understanding the optimization space of the frame. Building upon this, Mechanical was employed to solve the first 14 natural frequencies and mode shapes of the frame, and the accuracy of the theoretical analysis was verified through modal testing. After analyzing the frequency characteristics of external excitation forces, it was found that the fourth-order natural frequency of the frame fell within the frequency range of the excitation force of the shaft of the straw grinder, causing resonance in the frame and necessitating structural optimization. The optimal results indicated that the optimized frame increased in mass by 4.41%, reduced the maximum stress value by 2.56 MPa, and increased the fourth-order natural frequency to 22.7 Hz, avoiding the frequency range of the excitation force of the shaft of the straw grinder, thus improving the resonance issue. This paper provides a reference for optimizing the design of the frame of the residual film recovery machine.
