The problem
We supported the customer throughout the development process, not only by performing finite element analyses but also by assisting in the selection and qualification of the manufacturing supplier responsible for producing the prototype.
The challenge
The objective of the project was to design a lightweight load-bearing structure using a carbon fiber sandwich composite to meet the stringent weight and structural performance requirements of a space application.
Our contribution
The completed prototype successfully underwent qualification testing on a vibration test bench. It passed the qualification campaign on the first attempt, and the experimental results showed excellent correlation with the numerical predictions obtained during the design phase, validating the accuracy of the simulation model.

Validate your product before you build it.
What if you could reduce your prototyping costs by up to 80%? Would you like to know how?
With computer simulation, we help you predict your product's performance under real operating conditions before it is manufactured. By identifying design issues early, you can minimize costly iterations, reduce development time, and launch reliable products right the first time.
