Machine component shaft is a rotating machine element, usually circular in section. Generally shaft are
manufacturing by mild steel, when high strength is required alloy steel used. Exiting shaft AISI 1040 used in pad steam machine
failed after 2600 hrs due to crack generation. This paper work represented to analysis of roller shaft used in steam pad machine
used in textile industry. The FEA was done in Ansys software by using selected three materials Carbon Steel (AISI 1040), EN8,
EN24 based on their composition. FEA show that the EN24 Material is best suggested material among all material
