Yes — especially when you don’t want to risk manufacturing or putting a component into service blind.

It makes sense especially when:

• You’re working on a specific problem or doubt about a design
• Physical testing is costly or time-consuming
• An error would mean reworking a prototype, a warranty claim, or a safety risk

What this means for you:

• Simulation pays off even for one-off questions — the cost of the calculation is a fraction of the cost of manufacturing and test-and-error prototyping. Relying on internal estimates or waiting for a prototype typically extends the development cycle and shifts the cost of errors to a later, more expensive project phase.

Not sure whether it makes sense in your case? A few sentences or a rough description is enough — you don’t need complete documentation.

We’ll give you a specific process proposal, indicative scope, and a recommendation on whether it’s worth pursuing. If it doesn’t make sense, we’ll tell you that too.

The decision is always yours — we give you the basis to make it with confidence.

We don’t just deliver numbers.

You get:

• A technical report with calculation results — in English, German, or Czech
• Interpretation of results in the context of your design intent
• Specific recommendations — what to change, where to reinforce, where you can reduce weight

What this means for you:

The report is suitable for review by a German Prüfstatiker if your project requires it. Such outputs are standard requirements in the DACH region.

You know exactly what to change and why. Based on this you decide: revise the design, move to production, or explore further variants.

It depends on geometry complexity, the number of load cases, and the required level of accuracy.

What this means in practice:

• A simple assessment or partial analysis — results within a few days. First meaningful results often within the same week.
• Complex model, parametric studies, or multiple variants — on the order of weeks
• A precise estimate is provided after reviewing the inputs

Benefit for your project:

• A specific timeline and description of what you’ll receive at each stage of the analysis. The standard approach via physical prototypes takes more time and costs more on each iteration — in simulation you get the answer much sooner.

When to act:

Don’t wait for a physical prototype. An error found in simulation costs a fraction of what an error found on a prototype costs. This means you have clarity within days — not weeks or months of physical testing.

Typically a client comes to us when a design has gone through development but it’s unclear whether it will hold up under real-world loading — and physical testing would be too costly or time-consuming.

Send us the CAD model, information on materials, loads, and boundary conditions, and tell us what you want to verify — strength, fatigue, deformation, dynamic response.

What we’ll do:

• Review the inputs and propose a calculation approach
• If anything is missing, we’ll tell you exactly what and how to provide it — we don’t start blind

Your result:

• A clearly defined project scope and deliverable before any work begins
• No surprises mid-project

When to act:

When you’re unsure whether your design will hold under real loading. Errors found in simulation cost a fraction of what errors found on a prototype or in service cost. This is exactly the moment when it makes sense to bring us in.

Both of them.

What we do:

• Identify weaknesses in the design
• Propose specific design modifications — reinforcement, geometry changes, weight optimisation
• If the project requires repeated analyses of a similar type, we can automate the entire process — see [ANSYS Customization]

Benefit for your project:

• Faster development and fewer dead ends
• In the case of automation — the same analyses next time run without manual effort

Not sure whether it makes sense in your case? A few sentences or a rough description is enough — you don’t need complete documentation.

We’ll give you a specific process proposal, indicative scope, and a recommendation on whether it’s worth pursuing. If it doesn’t make sense, we’ll tell you that too.
