Numerical simulation offers a unique and comprehensive virtual assessment of material characteristics, residual stresses and distortions in welded structures while considering different welding processes and heat treatments. This allows engineers to be as productive as possible by building physically realistic virtual structures in the development phase to ensure improvement in the quality and performance of the manufactured products.
THE BENEFITS
- Keep welding distortions within allowable tolerances
- Control high residual stresses in the welding structures for quality assessment
- Avoid component distortion and high material hardness during or after heat treatment
- Obtain correct material strength, toughness, and hardness
- Improve crash and fatigue performance of the product
- Optimization and testing without real mock-ups
