Simulation

MedTec are able to offer customers Finite Element Analysis to simulate service conditions of parts or assemblies prior to manufacture.

Simulation is rapidly becoming an integral part of the design process, and the benefits of incorporating simulation in the early stages of a project can be very cost effective. Using our simulation software we are able to work with clients to provide rapid initial appraisals of designs in order to highlight any potential problem areas or to make more efficient use of materials. Then, as the project progresses more detailed analysis can be undertaken to ensure compliance with specifications.

In addition to stress analysis for structural requirements MedTec are also able to offer Modal Analysis of components to determine vibration issues, and Dynamic Simulation to allow investigation of driving forces and reactions in mechanisms.

Dynamic Simulation

MedTec are able to analyse mechanisms to determine loads and reaction forces during operation. In this example the input torque required at the jack lead screw is being output to a graph showing the range of torque required over the limits of movement.

MedTec's practical approach to simulation allows them to offer a very competitively priced service. The initial simulations conducted during the design stages are charged at our standard drafting hourly rates. Therefore, clients only incur full professional fees if they require final simulations or calculations to be signed off by a chartered engineer.
