Weight optimization: cost reduction through simulation

Rising material prices, long delivery times and increased energy costs. These are just some of the challenges currently facing the mechanical engineering industry. The increasing competitive pressure requires new approaches and a rethink of conventional methods.

At this point, you can benefit from our many years of experience as a calculation service provider. How? We have outstanding expertise in the optimization of machines and products with regard to their weight using simulation. For example, material thicknesses can be reduced or expensive or difficult to obtain materials can be replaced by more efficient alternatives. We have already achieved weight savings of up to 50% (14 tons), which has significantly reduced material costs and delivery times.

We would be happy to advise you on your products and their potential in a non-binding discussion via Microsoft Teams or on the phone.
