mechatronic design and process simulation
Business Unit Manager: Dipl.-Ing. Dr. techn. Stefan Dierneder
Improved design management and a significant reduction of design effort by a systematic mechatronic design approach, the use of modern design methods, and the integration of various simulation, modeling and analysis methods during the whole development process – from the very first concepts to the final realization
Mechatronic design and product development
Setting up and evaluation of solution concepts; development and working out of selected concepts for innovative products
- Systematic development and design by an intense integration of modern simulation, modeling and analysis
- Design and engineering
- Rapid prototyping (functional 3D models made of so-called ABSplus plastics), small series production, series concepts
Process simulation
Computer-aided analytical and numerical modeling and simulation of dynamic processes (thermal, mechanical, etc.) for individual parts, components and overall systems as basis for product resp. system evaluation, as well as for process and design optimization
Systematic and methodological design
Systematic and methodological design and development of systems for mechanical engineering
- Introduction and further development of 3D design
- Setting up of parametric design models varying from simple geometric models to high-end expert systems
- Efficient modularization and standardization
- Objective and systematic design documentation
Rapid prototyping at LCM
Real functional 3D parts of ABSplus plastics: nothing explains a new idea better reps. as precisely as an assailable part.
From an office workplace, our rapid prototyping system can breathe life into new ideas.
These 3D ABSplus models enable an immediate check of form, fit and functionality in as many variants as wanted. Long delivery times belong to the past due to the omission of mechanical manufacturing.
Features:
Max. part size: 200 x 200 x 300 m³
ABSplus material is a durable thermoplastic that is up to 40% stronger than standard ABS plastics.
Fan wheel for an electric motor
The fan wheel in the illustration below was produced with the 3D rapid prototyping system and afterwards mounted and successfully tested on the motor.
