On the drawing board or in the field,
6D provides answers:
- Will the new design withstand the environment and conditions for which it is intended?
- Where will operating loads and forces have the biggest on impact the CAD model?
- What was the reason for the cracked loader axle?
- Why are the cooling fan blades failing prematurely?
Engineering analysis (FEA/Simulation) is a key to today’s accelerated product development cycles. 6D analysis services help measure and predict product behavior in the early upstream stages of product development while addressing a wide range of component/system/product challenges.
Testing & Analysis: A Solution-Oriented Approach
From early design validation through in-service equipment troubleshooting, 6D puts your data to work. We complement our expert testing services with practical application of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for fast and accurate results. 6D analysis engineers cut through the science of analysis to deliver answers quickly and accurately; not overly-detailed reports.
6D analysts predict structural and thermal behavior for systems and complex assemblies using a variety of FEA technologies including:
- Static Stress
- Dynamic Modes
- Forced Response
- Transient Analysis
- Durability/Fatigue
- Seismic Analysis
- Bolted Joint Analysis
- Welded Joint Analysis per AWS
Design Validation
6D employs Analysis/Simulation to help guide a variety of validation processes. Prior to physical testing, simulation models are used to help with test planning and to determine locations for data collection sensors. This ensures data integrity and optimum results.
Troubleshooting
When key equipment fails you need answers and you need them yesterday. 6D employs FEA to quickly and accurately identify the root cause of a problem and then engineer and substantiate the solution.
