FEA Analysis
FEA analysis is available on the desktop with seamless intergration to the model. This allows design checks to be carried each time a model is modified.
Linear static analysis: various load conditions with resulting stress and deformation.
Thermal analysis:allows study of temperature changes encountered by mechanical parts and structures in their normal operating conditions.
Frequency
and buckling :Inherent vibration modes in mechanical supports
can shorten equipment life and cause unexpected failures. Analysis allows
engineers to evaluate natural frequencies or critical buckling loads on
the model.
Sample One
This shows a simple clip. Once the part was modelled it was necessary to achieve the "right" amount of force to enable it to hold securely, yet remain easy to remove.
Sample Two
This shows a welded bracket. In order to determine the strength of the part under loads imparted by the instrument itself and in the case of the bracket being used as a handle, FEA analysis is used. The bracket acts as a cantilever so it is possible to model the effects of various vibration frequencies.
Sample Three
This shows a tray style bracket. In this example, the FEA is used to look at the effect of loads being applied via "hank bush" sheet metal inserts.
