Selection of materials, based on the analysis of specificatons of the product, production process or other information provided by the client, using a material database software, existing know-how and consultation with material suppliers. In addition to the analysis performed by means of the software, weighting methods can be applied for materials prioritization.
Development of an idea into a product concept:
- conceptual product design;
- advanced 3D modeling;
- definition of assembly and component production methods;
- production of photorealistic images of the developed concept.
Numerical modeling to predict and optimize the performance of structures and/or products, of different types of materials (thermoplastics, composites, thermosets, metals), using commercial software:
- structural simulation of mechanical performance;
- simulation of the dynamics and vibrations behavior;
- thermal and thermo-mechanical simulation;
- computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and fluid-structure interaction (FSI);
- simulation of gas permeability n through films;
- electromagnetic compatibility simulation;
- optimization of laminates in composite materials;
Integration of electronics in injected thermoplastic products, for the development of mechatronic devices, using LDS (Laser Direct Structuring) / 3D-MID technology.
Products functionalization through integration of sensors and electronic devices conected with internet, IoT.
Production of volumetric models and prototypes, for spatial evaluation and as a support for the product development, through machining techniques, 3D printing, casting of polymeric resins or mixed techniques.
Non-conventional experimental tests on products and prototypes, to evaluate the thermo-mechanical and dynamic performance, with the possibility of sensorization for a detailed analysis of the variables critical to product funcionality.
