The thesis encompasses the construction and topology optimization of the jib crane for the insertion of heavier tools in gear cutting machine and lifting of heavier items in the vicinity of the machine. The first part focuses on the mechanical calculations and the design of jib crane in accordance with valid standards. Due to the fact that the jib crane is directly mounted on the machine and shouldn't affect the machines accuracy, it is designed to be as light as possible. Part two concentrates on parametric analysis and topological optimization of the jib crane arm. This is done with the finite element method and help of the software tool ANSYS. A total of four solutions are presented.
