CAE

About 15 years ago, at a time when computerized analysis was not yet common in our country, we were one of the pioneers to introduce CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) technologies.

Since immature times of CAE software and CAD data, we have accumulated know-how of analysis by working on many projects of automobile and aerospace industries.

Have you ever had these problems?

 
 
  • Analysis is needed, but cannot afford to introduce the equipments
  • Cannot take time to train engineers, but employment of new engineers would cost too much
  • Unexpected need for analysis operations
  • You currently depend on another company for analysis, but hope to cut costs
  • Able to operate analysis tools, but unsure if it is appropriate
  • There is a gap between analyses and experimental results
 
Customers will face many different challenges.

Our CAE engineers can help you!

We not only provide consulting, engineers, analysis environment and equipments promptly, but also respond to sporadic operations. We can serve your multiple needs.

CAE Consulting Services

We propose the most suitable solution for each project by holding thorough discussions on details such as your product specifications, analysis methods and budget.

STEP1: Understanding the current situation

Research of current results

We research the problems of customers' experiment/ trial results and current products.

Hearings with customers

We conduct hearings for customers' needs and challenges in your operation flow, such as "accuracy enhancement of CAE analysis" or "shortening the development period".

STEP2: Proposal of CAE analysis methods

We ask you to provide us with data such as geometry data (2DCAD/ 3DCAD data/ drawings), material property data, to hold discussions on actual analysis methods, specifications and cost.

*Material property data
Linear analysis: Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, mass density etc.
Non-linear analysis: Above data + stress-strain diagram

Please do not hesitate to share with us your queries and problems regarding analysis.

To help you focus on your core operations,

On-Site/ Off-Site CAE Support

  • 1. We can reduce your burden by cooperation with our design department.
  • 2. We respond to quick delivery/ large-volume work with stable quality and speed.
  • 3. We can build management systems on site, with our leader as the core.
  • 4. We can respond to on-site engineering support in small numbers.
  • 5. We provide reliable quality based on our past experiences.

1. We can reduce your burden by cooperation with our design department.

We can reduce customers' burden by cooperation with our design department, such as responding to creation of 3D data from specification drawings or actual products.

Our strength lies in the cooperation with our design department, which has thorough knowledge of analysis results. The designers can adequately recognize the results of motion or strength simulations and perform design optimization and structure proposal with production requirements included.

2. We respond to short-term deliveries/ large-volume work with stable quality and speed.

We realize reduction of operational costs by utilizing our own unique route of partner corporations.

We ensure quality by total management and support from start of work to delivery. In addition, we are able to respond to large-volume work in quick delivery term by working with a number of partners simultaneously.

3. We can build management systems on site, with our leader as the core.

Do you feel that management of engineers may be burdensome? You don't need to worry.

When a number of our engineers support your project on site, we set a leader to perform group management.

We reduce your burden by cutting out management costs.

4. We can respond to on-site engineering support in small numbers.

We can respond to minimum number of on-site engineering support as well, depending on your work volume. If you want to use your equipment more effectively, please feel free to consult with us.

5. We provide reliable quality based on our past experiences.

Within CAE operations, the key to enhance accuracy of analysis is the "mesh generation".

When the geometry is more complicated the splits need to be more exquisite, and "accuracy of analysis" depends heavily on the reproducibility of geometry.

For example, welding points which connects the parts and stress-concentrating areas require meshing in a method meeting the analysis specification, thus experienced and precise skills become an essential requirement.

We are skilled in model adjustments with results obtained from tests/experiments, and we consider ourselves to have thorough know-how developed since the earliest days of CAE analysis.
