Finite Element Analysis

Part of a Complete Product Development Process

Finite element analysis (FEA) simulations are an integral part of the design process, whether it be a design change or a new product.

We see the investment in finite element analysis services being repaid many times over in reduced development costs and a better product or quicker solution to your problem. Design changes worked out through analysis and simulation before prototype construction means quicker time to market and lower production costs.

Virtual Testing

Is a realistic option to refine a design prior to building a single prototype.
Parametric studies are routinely executed completely within a simulation environment.
Dozens of design variables can be simulated easily
Simulations can extract information that would be impossible to acquire in a physical testing environment.

A Balanced Solution

We have many years’ experience in FEA for mechanical, electromechanical, heat transfer, and flow simulation so we know where to look to find problem areas. FEA is a great tool, but it should be used in conjunction with other areas of expertise. And because we also have design, test and manufacturing experience, we can recommend a balanced approach to your task.
