Besides the requirements with regard to the design, component stress and materials processing, the fluidic properties of products in plastics technology get more and more important.
Our fluid technicians use the numerical fluid simulation (Computational Fluid Dynamics) during the product development in order to predict the fluidic properties of components. The use of CFD allows for an analysis of complex fluidic problems in an early development stage and to derive constructive solutions from the results obtained in this analysis. Thanks to the integration of CFD into the CAE development chain the simulation of the operating performance of components with possible design loads is realisable with a comparably low effort as the development approaches. Like this the construction of prototypes and pilot lots can be reduced to a minimum, thus also significantly reducing development times and cost.
