DDAM ANALYSIS OF A NAVY PRESSURE VESSEL
The finite element analysis (FEA) method called
DDAM (Dynamic Design Analysis Method) is used to
qualify Navy equipment for specific shock loading.
Using this method avoids expensive test methods.
Artech Engineering Inc provided all the necessary
documentation and FEA details to meet the detailed
requirement.

AUTOMATION UPGRADE
The assembly to the right is part of a
factory floor upgrade recently completed.
The design was intended to be installed
within an existing line of automation and
integrated within the current control
scheme. Line was started and run off with
minor issues and is now in production.

HYDRAULIC SOLUTION FOR FORMING DIES - Artech Engineering Inc provides the detailed
Engineering for the on board hydraulic forming system. Several cylinders are used for providing a controlled
binder force in the first station of a large transfer press. Hydraulics provides a soft initial hit and eliminates
damaging reactions on the press upstroke.

SPECIAL FORK TRUCK -
Using Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
in this application has provided an
optimized structure for loading
a heat treat oven. Areas of stress
and vibration were addressed
in the simulation. Run-off in the
plant was 100% successful.

CYLINDER GUIDE UPGRADE - Multiple upgrades to various
heavy equipment components have been recently released.
This example shows an upgrade to a cylinder guide design.
The new design reduced wear with a better material match.

LARGE EQUIPMENT UPGRADE - The large adjusting worm gear
was worn beyond use. Material analysis indicated a mis match of the
worm and worm gear material. Improvement was made by sleeving
the old gear for new gear teeth and better material matching.
