Our Services

One partner across the full engineering pipeline, from first concept sketch to a validated, production-ready design, solver-agnostic and automation-backed at every step.

01 / DESIGN

CAD & Product Design

From concept to detailed, manufacturable CAD.

From Concept to CAD

CAD & Product Design

We take mechanical parts, products and assemblies from early concept to fully detailed CAD, working across SolidWorks, FreeCAD and Rhinoceros. Parametric, feature-based modelling keeps designs flexible as requirements evolve, while assembly tolerancing and interference checks catch problems before they ever reach the shop floor, backed by clean 2D drafting and GD&T-ready drawings.

  • Concept-to-detail 3D modelling of parts & assemblies
  • Parametric & feature-based design for flexibility
  • Assembly tolerancing & interference checking
  • GD&T-ready 2D drafting & design iteration for manufacturability

02 / MESH

Finite Element Meshing

Shell, tetra & hexa meshes, built for your solver.

Meshing for Every Solver

Finite Element Meshing

Good simulation starts with a good mesh. We build shell, tetra and hexa meshes in ANSA, matched to the geometry in front of us: shell for thin-walled and sheet-metal structures, tetra for complex irregular parts, hexa where crash and structural models demand higher fidelity. Every mesh is checked against solver-specific quality criteria, Jacobian, warpage, skewness, before it’s handed off ready to run.

  • Shell, tetra & hexa meshing to solver quality criteria
  • Geometry cleanup, mid-surfacing & defeaturing
  • Solver-ready models for LS-DYNA, Nastran, Abaqus & PAM-CRASH

03 / SIMULATE

Multi-Solver Simulation

The right solver for the question you’re asking.

Crash, Structural & Durability

Multi-Solver Simulation

Whether the question is how a structure survives an impact or how it holds up over years of fatigue loading, we run the simulation in whichever solver fits the job. Crash and impact work goes through LS-DYNA and PAM-CRASH; linear and nonlinear structural analysis runs in Nastran and Abaqus. Boundary conditions, load cases and material models are set up to match real-world behaviour, and every solver deck goes through QA/QC before the results are trusted.

  • Crash & impact simulation with LS-DYNA & PAM-CRASH
  • Linear & nonlinear structural analysis with Nastran & Abaqus
  • Static, dynamic, modal, fatigue & durability studies
  • Solver deck build, QA/QC checks & run management

04 / ANALYZE

Post-Processing & Analysis

From raw solver output to a clear answer.

Turning Results into Decisions

Post-Processing & Analysis

Raw solver output isn’t a deliverable, an answer is. We extract and interpret results, stress, strain, displacement, energy, and evaluate them against your design targets, tracing failures back to their root cause when something doesn’t pass. The result is a clear engineering report with plots, findings and specific recommendations your team can act on, not a folder of contour plots to decode.

  • Extraction & interpretation of simulation results
  • Design performance evaluation against requirements
  • Root-cause analysis of structural failures
  • Presentation-ready reports & actionable recommendations

05 / AUTOMATE

Automation & Machine Learning

Less repetitive setup, more engineering judgment.

Engineering at Scale

Automation & Machine Learning

A lot of engineering time gets lost to repetitive setup work, so we script it away. Custom automation handles repeatable CAD, meshing and post-processing tasks and drives batch processing for large design-of-experiments studies, while machine learning models add predictive power for design optimization. The result is shorter turnaround and more engineering time spent on judgment calls, automation built around the tools and workflow you already use.

  • Custom scripts to automate CAD, meshing & post-processing tasks
  • Batch processing for large-scale simulation studies (DOE)
  • Automated data extraction, plotting & report generation
  • Machine learning models for design prediction & optimization

Questions

Frequently Asked

Do you work under an NDA?

Yes. We’re glad to sign your NDA before any project details are shared, confidentiality is standard practice for CAE consulting.

Do we need a finished CAD model to get started?

No. We can start as early as concept sketches and take a project through CAD, meshing and simulation, or step in at any single stage, meshing only or simulation only, whichever your team needs.

Which solver should we use?

Whichever fits the physics of your problem. We’re solver-agnostic across LS-DYNA, PAM-CRASH, Nastran and Abaqus, and we’ll recommend the right one rather than defaulting to a single license.

Can you work inside our existing tools and file formats?

Yes. Our automation and scripting work is built around the tools and workflow you already use, not the other way around.
