Expert CNC Tube Bending Solutions by NovaNox®

To ensure that test phases and also the use of your product after commissioning by your customers run smoothly, we use FEM calculations to analyze the component strength, fatigue strength and material efficiency of your concept, among other things, at an early stage of development.

In doing so, we digitally present the consequences of different force effects, temperature influences and electrical stresses through linear and non-linear structural mechanical calculations. This enables us to examine the effects of the various influences on the entire product or component for simple and complex geometries even before prototypes are built.

The results from these calculations are finally available to you as proof for technical approvals, for product liability and production releases.

We perform FEM calculations analytically according to generally and internationally standardized standards. This results in comparability and reliable results. In detail we do for you:

• linear and non-linear structural mechanics calculations
• Analysis of deformations, stiffnesses and stability
• Consideration of natural vibrations
• Transient structural analysis
• Collision analyses
• Temperature field calculation (thermal-stationary or thermal-transient)
• CAE-supported fatigue calculation with nCode

To guarantee the seamless operation of your product post-implementation, our FEM (Finite Element Method) calculations play a critical role. We conduct comprehensive analyses to assess component strength, durability, and material efficiency right from the development stage. This proactive approach helps in anticipating and mitigating potential issues before they arise.

Our advanced digital simulations accurately represent the impact of varied forces, temperature changes, and electrical stresses through both linear and non-linear structural mechanical calculations. This process is crucial for understanding the effects of these factors on products or components, regardless of their geometric complexity, even before prototype development.

These calculations provide essential data for technical approvals, addressing product liability, and sanctioning production. We adhere to globally recognized standards, ensuring the reliability and comparability of our results. Our detailed FEM analysis includes:

• Linear and Non-Linear Structural Mechanics Calculations
• Deformation, Stiffness, and Stability Analysis
• Natural Vibration Assessment
• Transient Structural Analysis
• Collision Analysis
• Thermal Field Calculation (both stationary and transient)
