Manufacturers are constantly looking to increase out and improve productivity.  As a result, new production machines need to be engineered to handle increasing loads that result from added torque and power, while continuing to avoid downtime and malfunctions. Most machines operate at peak capacity around the clock, making structural integrity and durability critical functional performance aspects during machine development.

To deal with increasingly complex equipment, that can also be delivered in a wide array of differing configurations, durability engineers need an effective process that includes full load histories, as well as accurate models and fatigue life prediction methodologies.

Our test and simulation solutions deliver an industry-proven durability engineering process. Our testing solutions help you obtain high-quality data quickly with confidence and in an automated way, as well as set realistic and accurate design targets for damage usage scenarios. Our simulation solutions help you predict loads on full product level that can be cascaded down to the subsystem and component levels to assess critical stresses and lifetime behavior.

Multi-physics Simulation

Complex industrial problems require solutions that span a multitude of physical phenomena, which often can only be solved using simulation techniques that cross several engineering disciplines.

Optimization

How can I reduce material in a component or change its properties while ensuring it continues to meet performance targets? Siemens delivers engineering optimization techniques that can help you answer these this question by systematically searching for the best design that satisfies certain criteria. Reduce component weight or find the right combination of parameters to improve product performance through comprehensive topology, geometry, and parameter optimization capabilities.

Structural Dynamics Testing

Benefit from a tradition of cutting-edge engineering expertise and maximize your testing efficiency, when performing impact testing on small structures, running large-scale campaigns with hundreds of measurement channels, or validating 3D finite element models with experimental data.

Structural Simulation

Understanding how a component or product assembly reacts under stress or vibration is critical in any industry, but as products and materials become increasingly complex, engineers need tools that go beyond linear statics analyses. Siemens delivers the structural solutions you need for a wide range of structural analysis problems within a single user environment.
