Hydrauvision uses simulation to deal with pressure during design

Hydrauvision | Industrial Machinery & Heavy Equipment | Netherlands

Hydrauvision’s products are put through the toughest of tests, as they are used in rugged environments and must withstand substantial operational and environmental stress. And because they’re used in offshore applications, the products must pass strict regulatory compliance guidelines before they can be shipped. Hydrauvision’s customers expect high quality, dependability and reliability–but they also expect quick response and quick turnaround.

Engineer Peter van Harrewijn, along with his colleague Loek Thomaes, use Solid Edge Simulation to guide early design decisions and Simcenter Femap for in-depth simulation of the virtual prototype. By starting simulation early in design, changes are made when they are easiest, time-to-manufacture is shortened, and cost-to-manufacture can be reduced. And because the final FEA simulations are so accurate, the company can reduce the number of physical prototypes and further reduce time and cost.
