DESIGN, MODELLING & ANALYSIS IN-HOUSE

Our engineering department uses SolidWorks 3D modelling and FEA structural analysis to design new products and to reverse-engineer parts that are no longer supported by the OEM. Conceptual and workshop drawings are produced for the trades next door, so a design becomes a finished component without leaving the building.

Where a part keeps failing, we redesign it. Design optimisation that removes the stress concentrations that cause failures, then validates the change before any steel is cut.
