The use of simulation based technologies in an early stage of product or technology development is an indispensable part of a successful design process. This aim leads to advanced implementation of CAD-integrated analysis technology.

 

Services offered

 

  • Preparation and monitoring of tests with mechanical and thermo-mechanical loads or boundary conditions for ceramic parts, assemblies or specified test pieces
  • FE-Analysis in combination with the calculation of structural strength under consideration of the specific properties of technical ceramics 
  • Evaluation of results based on a long-time experience in design and development of ceramic products  and components
