Strength calculation services are an essential part of the development and manufacture of industrial products. Hefmec provides reliable and accurate strength calculation services to ensure the durability and safety of structures. The in-depth knowledge of our experts enables you to optimise complex structures, reduce material costs and eliminate design errors. Our agile approach ensures that we can respond to our clients’ needs quickly and efficiently, providing comprehensive strength calculation services from initial analysis to the finished structure.
Why is strength calculation a critical part of product development?
Strength calculation is the cornerstone of product development, ensuring the safety, durability and functionality of products under all operating conditions. Without proper strength calculation, products may fail prematurely, causing significant safety risks and economic losses.
Machinery and equipment operating in demanding industrial environments must be able to withstand a variety of loads and stresses. Accurate strength calculations allow structures to be optimised to provide adequate durability while maintaining material efficiency. Hefmec engineers use advanced calculation methods to identify critical points in structures and ensure that they meet all required safety standards.
Not only does strength calculation prevent costly errors and the need for redesign, it also speeds up the entire product development process. By ensuring the durability of structures at the design stage, the number of prototypes can be reduced and the time to market can be accelerated. Hefmec’s deep expertise in strength calculations for industrial products enables our customers to gain a competitive advantage in these critical areas.
Hefmec experts understand that each industry and product has its own specific requirements for strength calculations. That’s why we always tailor our approach to suit our customers’ needs, whether it’s heavy engineering, process industries or other industrial applications.
What does Hefmec’s strength calculation services cover?
Hefmec’s strength calculation services cover all strength calculation needs in product development and mechanical engineering. We offer comprehensive strength calculation solutions ranging from initial conceptual design analyses to detailed reviews of final structures.
At the core of our service are Finite Element Method ( FEM) analyses, which can simulate the behaviour of complex structures under different loading conditions. FEM analyses allow the structures to be modelled to be broken down into small elements, allowing the distribution of loads and stresses to be determined with high accuracy.
We offer both static and dynamic strength calculations:
- Static analyses investigate the behaviour of structures under steady-state loading conditions
- Dynamic analyses investigate the response of structures to vibrations and impact loads
- Fatigue analyses predict the service life of structures under varying loads
- Temperature effects analyses investigate the effects of thermal expansion and expansion stresses
- Linear and non-linear strength calculations for different types of materials and loads
Hefmec’s technical expertise also covers CE documentation and ensuring compliance with standards. Our experts are familiar with the requirements and standards of different industries, enabling us to optimise structures to meet your specific needs.
We also offer advanced analysis services such as topology optimisation and vibration damping solutions. These can help achieve significant improvements in lightness, durability and performance of structures.
How do strength calculation services improve the life cycle of a product?
Proper strength calculations significantly extend the life cycle of products and improve their reliability throughout their lifetime. Comprehensive strength calculations help to identify and eliminate potential problems at the design stage, reducing the need for maintenance and extending service intervals.
When structures are optimised using strength calculations, they are better able to withstand the stresses of use. This reduces fatigue fractures and unexpected failures, which can cause costly production downtime and safety risks. Hefmec’s strength calculation expertise enables structures to be sized to last the right amount of time under the right conditions – not too little, not too much.
Life-cycle costs are significantly reduced when:
- Structures designed to withstand real-life operating conditions
- Material use is optimised without oversizing
- Service points are identified and designed for easy maintenance
- Potential problem areas are eliminated at the design stage
So strong is Hefmec’s confidence in the accuracy of our own strength calculations that we can offer a lifetime guarantee on many of our products. This reflects our commitment to quality and reliability. When strength calculations are carried out carefully and professionally, you can be sure of the performance of your structures throughout their designed lifecycle.
In addition, strength calculations can be used to predict the behaviour of the product in different situations and to determine precise maintenance intervals and procedures. This enables predictive maintenance and prevents costly surprises during operation.
How quickly can Hefmec deliver strength calculation services?
Hefmec is known for its exceptionally agile and fast delivery of strength calculation services. While other operators talk about delivery times of months, at Hefmec we talk about days. This speed is based on our efficient process and the expertise of our experienced specialists.
Our agile operating model allows us to quickly launch strength calculation services at short notice. We are always ready to provide expert resources when you need them. Here’s how our process works:
- A thorough understanding of the client’s needs and the problem
- Choosing the right calculation methods and tools
- Creation and validation of the calculation model
- Performing the strength calculation and analysing the results
- Clear reporting and recommendations for action
Our open culture and straightforward processes allow us to work flexibly and quickly. We make efficient use of our diverse in-house expertise to ensure accurate and reliable structural analysis without long waiting times.
We understand that our customers’ projects cannot wait months for a strength calculation. That’s why we have developed our approach to be so efficient that we can provide fast, yet extremely reliable results. However, for us, fast delivery never means compromising on quality – on the contrary, our efficient process allows us to deliver a thorough and thorough calculation service within a short timeframe.
We also focus on clear communication and reporting so that the client receives the results in an easily understandable format. If necessary, we will recommend changes or redesign the structure to meet all the requirements.
Hefmec strength calculation services are the solution when you need a reliable, fast and expert partner to ensure the durability and safety of your products. Contact us and we’ll tell you more about how we can help with your specific project.
