In this Business Field we Concentrate all Activities Related to Thorough Computer Aided Development and State of the Art Simulation Up to Digital Twin

We develop plastic, fiber composite and hybrid lightweight solutions tailored to your individual requirements. A carefully compiled specification sheet incorporates both technical and economic constraints to clearly define development goals and ultimately achieve the greatest possible added value.

 

Our approach is always systematic and transparent for you. Our development process takes all numerical tools of virtual product development into account.

ENGINEERING at a glance

  • Consistent computer-aided design (3D CAD)

  • Numerical simulation

    • Numerical structural analysis based on the finite element method (FEM)

    • Process simulation

    • Flow simulation (aerodynamics)

    • optimization

    • Digital twin

Whether it's a new development or a replacement for existing designs, you can expect tailor-made lightweight solutions from us that always achieve a weight-to-cost ratio that meets your requirements.

 

 

To this end, we will work with you to create a qualified specification and requirements document for your task, which will define the technical and economic constraints.

 

After clarifying the development goals, we proceed with a methodical and transparent design development process . Here, we systematically analyze your lightweight construction task, taking all technical AND economic aspects into account. Based on the latest simulation techniques (CAE Computer-Aided Engineering), we develop the optimal plastic solution for you. A systematic and transparent selection of materials and manufacturing processes is coordinated and iteratively integrated with this process .

 

The fully computer-aided Development process and the accompanying numerical simulation ensure that operating situations (load cases), motion sequences, and manufacturing processes are represented as realistically as possible, so that only the smallest possible number of tests on the actual component are required to verify functionality. Simulation during development is therefore THE method and tool of choice for ensuring predictive capability. This way, we guarantee the shortest possible development times with the goal of achieving perfect performance, weight, and cost.

 

Using the "digital twin" method, we map the entire application situation on a large scale, including neighboring components and incorporating sensor data, if necessary. This way, we ensure, as far as possible, in the virtual world that later implemented solutions will meet the requirements right from the start – the goal: " perfect landing ."

Werkstoffe

 

Werkstoffseitig ist GoForLite® im Ganzen spezialisiert auf Kunststoff-, Faserverbund- und Hybrid-Lösungen. Im Fokus stehen bei Kunststoffen und Faserverbunden:

  • Thermoplaste (PP, PE, PA, PPA, PC, ABS, PPS, PEEK, uvm.)

  • Duromere (EP, UP, VE, PU, uvm.)

  • Glasfaserverstärkte Kunststoffe (GFK)

  • Kohlenstofffaserverstärkte Kunststoffe (CFK)

  • Aramidfaserverstärkte Kunststoffe (AFK)

  • Naturfaserverstärkte Kunststoffe

  • Kunststoff-Metall-Hybride

  • Kunststoff-Kunststoff-Hybride (Voll-Kunststoff-Hybride)

 

Bei Faserverstärkungen unterscheiden wir

  • "kurz" (< 1 mm),

  • "diskontinuierlich lang" (> 1 mm, < 30 mm),

  • "kontinuierlich gerichtet" und

  • "kontinuierlich wirr".

 

 

Substitution

 

Beim Thema "Substitution" geht es um die Analyse bestehender Komponenten und Systeme, z.B. aus Metall oder anderen Werkstoffen, die vorteilhaft durch eine Kunststoff-, Faserverbund- oder Hybrid-Lösung ersetzt werden können. Die systematische Auswahl eines geeigneten Bauteils für eine im technischen und wirtschaftlichen Sinne vorteilhafte Substitution erfolgt im Rahmen einer sorgfältigen und transparenten Potenzialanalyse.
