Analysis, Calculation & Simulation
Through in-depth analyses and simulations, we optimize your material usage and guarantee maximum safety. Our FEM structural simulations provide verifiable documentation records.
Calculation and FEM (FEA)
Codronic offers comprehensive simulation and validation for your technical projects. Utilizing modern FEM structural simulations (FEA), we perform precise strength analyses and optimize both material usage and component topology. This ensures high reliability and efficiency as early as the initial development phase.
Beyond computer-aided analysis, our experts are proficient in classical engineering calculations. We perform sound dimensioning of machine elements and joints, create static calculations, and conduct detailed tolerance stack-up analyses. This combination of high-end simulation and traditional engineering craftsmanship guarantees a holistic technical assessment.
The result is auditable documentation that complies with the highest standards. Whether for general mechanical engineering or the sensitive defense sector, we deliver the required level of assurance for your innovations.
Static Strength Validation
Codronic offers sound simulations and verification procedures in the field of structural simulation to ensure precise strength analysis for demanding projects. For the evaluation of technical components, we utilize non-linear computational models that accurately capture large deformations as well as the simulation of buckling and crippling. This is of central importance, particularly in the development of highly stressed lightweight components in mechanical engineering, battery technology, or aerospace. Our expertise enables us to ensure structural integrity as early as the initial development phases.
By specifically employing topology optimization, we reduce material usage while simultaneously increasing the resource efficiency of your designs. We prepare auditable documentation records for you that fulfill all relevant standards and serve as a basis for CE conformity. Whether for special-purpose machinery or the defense industry, Codronic delivers reliable results for robust and durable system solutions. In this way, we combine innovative engineering with maximum safety and functionality.
Dynamic Strength Analysis
In modern special-purpose machinery and the defense industry, the reliability of components under variable loads is crucial. Codronic relies on time-dependent computational methods to precisely evaluate the structural integrity of complex assemblies. Through the targeted use of multi-body simulation (MBS), our experts analyze the dynamic behavior of the overall system. In this way, we ensure that mechanical loads are mapped realistically and that the design withstands the highest requirements for robustness and safety at all times.
A key focus lies on the identification and avoidance of critical vibrations and resonances that could lead to premature component failure. Using sound FEM structural simulations, we optimize material usage and ensure the required fatigue strength. The results are auditable documentation records for series production or certification. We support you from the initial strength analysis to the final process optimization for durable technical solutions.
Verification Documentation
Codronic creates high-quality verification documentation for your projects that meets the highest technical requirements. Our experts perform strength calculations strictly in accordance with applicable standards, such as the FKM guideline and Eurocode 3 for steel structures. Our core repertoire also includes complex assessments of pressure vessels according to DIN EN 13445, as well as the precise design of bolted joints according to VDI 2230. In this way, we ensure that your designs are not only safe but also executed in compliance with all relevant standards.
Our documentation is consistently prepared in an auditable manner and serves as a reliable basis for TÜV-relevant approvals. This applies particularly to demanding sectors such as temporary structures (fliegende Bauten) or safety-critical system solutions in mechanical engineering. Through this structured verification procedure, we provide efficient support during the conformity assessment and ensure the smooth certification of your systems and components.
