Calculations

Since 2012, we have acquired a solid experience in numerical simulations. Whether they are related to product validation or process simulation, our methodologies have proven themselves in many fields and on sometimes complex cases.

Mechanical & thermal calculations

Linear / non-linear static analysis
- Rotational speed constant, structural moves, large deformations, contacts...
Dynamic analysis, shock resistance
- Transitory response, harmonic dynamics, random
Vibration study, modal analysis
- Natural frequencies, modal distortions
Advanced specific calculations
- Conception, sensitivity and optimization study
- Study & properties of fatigue, buckling
- Hyperelastic & elastoplastic materials
Thermal analysis in steady state or transient
- Method of heat transfer: convection, conduction or radiation

The use of numerical simulation has many advantages and substantial benefits. Our know-how is recognized by our customers who ask us for studies of :

Validations to normative requirements and/or particular specifications
Sizing, comparative study in conception.
Substitution of metal by plastic
Geometric optimization and technical-economic productivity

Injections Simulations

The simulation of the plastic injection process is an important link in our digital chain; it is mainly aimed at anticipating the industrialization phase with the objective of limiting the planning and the cost. This tool reinforces our philosophy: product/process conception in plastics processing.

Definition / optimization of the supply system and process parameters
- Injection points, balancing of impressions...
Filling/compaction analysis
- Injection speed, pressures, temperatures, shear rates...
- Verification and anticipation of aspect problems
- Locking / closing force (press sizing)
- Cycle time estimation / optimization
Tooling regulation, thermal optimization
Analysis of shrinkage and deformation
- Anticipation, geometric optimization
Product / process optimization, material selection

We intervene on all types of studies :

Product conception optimization
Sequential injection
Injection moulding from a casting, piece with insert(s) or multi-material
Thermo-mechanical coupling
Optimization of cycle time, productivity
