• Production trials on rapid prototypes removes uncertainty
from the design prior to the design being frozen,
allowing greater flexibility of the product early in the
Thorough virtual validation:
development process.
• Use of the latest Finite Element Analysis methods for
structural, vibration and impact virtual testing of designs
prior to prototyping to reduce development time and
optimise design integrity.
• Detailed analysis of designs under key operating
conditions to reduce mean time between failures.
• Full assembly analysis to accurately recreate operating
conditions, specifically related to part interactions
incorporating friction and hardware components.

Leading edge design methods:

• Use of parametric and direct 3D modelling and design
allows design intent to be accurately captured.
• 3D product manufacturing information from CAD Flexible application Engineering:
