Construction Equipment Simulation Solutions

From a performance and reliability perspective, industrial equipment is one of the most challenging sectors of mechanical engineering. Depending on the application, machinery might have to be able to operate in real world conditions under very heavy loads, operate at incredible speeds without overheating, or run for extremely long operating cycles without succumbing prematurely to wear and fatigue. The cost to manufacturers of repairing or replacing a failed unit under warranty, plus the reputational damage caused by unreliability, means that companies working in the industrial equipment space need to be sure their products will work reliably in real-world conditions before committing to production. Simulation allows engineers to model equipment operation virtually. Implementing multiphysics, multi-scale simulation in the design process can accelerate product development, reduce costs, allow more product variants, and minimize the risk of product failure. The simulation tools from SIMULIA haven been integrated into the industrial equipment design process by leading manufacturers to evaluate product failures and minimize warranty costs life for single component or large assemblies, including welded structures
