Concept Design
We start when you start - our expertise from many different industries means we can cross fertilise new ideas into your projects and the best place for this is at the concept stage. Changes at this stage are easy to make and it is often at this stage when the future success of a product is fixed... so why not bring in the stress and fatigue experts to guide the functional design? We specialise in early design reviews, concept analysis and balancing costs with the design requirements.Detailed Design
Fatigue is driven by the detail - and we understand in detail the issues that need to be taken care of to ensure the product has high integrity and meets the design life. Without this your company is in danger of producing a product that fails and brings failure to you. Of course there is a timeline that needs to be adhered to and our team of experts understand the need to be timely, precise and clear in our work and communications.Manufacturing Support Services
The fatigue performance of a product can be seriously affected by the manufacturing process - weld quality, pre-load, assembly loads, materials selection and handling.... a Manufacture for Durability (M4D) review is an essential step in bringing a new product into production, whether high or low volume production. Materials Advice and Testing
Selecting the right material based on functional, structural and aesthetic requirements is an important step in the design process. From an engineering perspective, the functional requirement must be met to ensure the product integrity is not affected adversely. Our extensive materials knowledge and test services can make the difference between success and failure literally!Please call or e-mail us today for a free and confidential discussion about your product development needs - we would be delighted to talk to you.
