ENGINEERING

Make waves in the wake of innovation:

• 3D shape design and facelifts for complete body panels
• Complex mechanical system design and assembly, including suspensions, brake systems, frames, roll cages, gearboxes and steering systems
• Design of tooling and inspection fixtures for manufacturing
• Development of accessories, protection gear and safety equipment (helmets, trailers, extension seats, bumpers, skid plates, racks, etc.)
• Complete component design, namely sheet metal forming, tubing, injection molding, thermoforming, die-casting, machining, etc.)
• Electrical system design and integration
• Schematics for routing and instruments
• Design for manufacturing and assembly, dimensional management and tolerance analysis (GD&T)
• Certification and testing for maximum loads, safety and security

SIMULATION

Virtually unparalleled simulation services for outstanding real-life results:

• Structural simulation with advanced finite element analysis (FEA) and multi-body dynamics (MBD)
• Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for aerodynamic and heat transfer
• Fluid-structure interaction for buffeting, wave impact and drop test on water
• Simulation of crash tests or high-velocity shocks using LS-DYNA
• Test setup, data analysis, and establishment of load cases
• Dynamic analysis including random vibration and frequency response
• Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) simulation and expertise
• Mechanical fatigue and durability prediction analysis
• Non-linear simulation and advanced material modeling

Our core competencies in design, engineering and simulation have help recreational vehicle manufacturers develop crave-worthy products for their target markets.
