FEASIBILITY STUDY, METHOD PLANNING AND SIMULATION
Feasibility study, method planning, and simulation are key components of the engineering process, requiring a high level of expertise in production planning. We develop efficient production strategies and provide our customers with high-quality technical support in the optimal realization of their body components. In the process, we rely on a broad spectrum of components and our expert knowledge of materials: aluminum, the deep draw steels commonly used in the industry, and high strength and ultra high strength steel. The results are cost-optimized manufacturing concept with process reliability for your components. Our range of services covers the following process steps:
Feasibility study
- Feasibility analysis of component geometry
- Viability, cost analysis, and cost assessment
- Development of innovative production concepts
Method planning
- Further development and optimization of component geometry
- Production process definition
- Concept methods/series methods
- Method documentation (2D/3D)
Simulation
- Forming simulation
- Return and compensation calculation
- Robustness simulation (AutoForm Sigma)
- Surface analysis
- Press passage analysis
- Die collision study
- Hemming simulation
