3 Reasons Why Stress Analysis Testing id Better for Cable Shapes

Summarizing this as a point of simplification, stress analysis tests show how stress analysis elements affect design through computer simulation. The particular type of test that Marlene Steel engineers use today is called Finite Element Analysis (FEA).

Autodesk, the maker of FEA software used by Marlin, defines FEA as a "computerized method of predicting how a product reacts to real forces, vibrations, heat, fluid flow and other physical effects." Essentially, FEA analyzes thousands of different parts ("finite" elements) and measures the overall impact of different kinds of stress over time.

The use of the FEA stress test in physical prototype testing has the following advantages:

1. Fast test speed (several hours or even hours instead of weeks or weeks).

2. Reduce costs by allowing you to test your design without using tools for physical prototyping.

3. It can simulate years or decades of use, increasing test thoroughness.

How does the stress analysis test lead to a better wire form?

So how can a test method that can be completed in a matter of minutes and simulated for decades of use get better wiring? There are several reasons why stress analysis testing can help improve the overall design of custom cabling foils:

Do not let the designer do the home. One of the most dangerous things in any custom basket design is to make a home without a designer checking. Stress test design helps designers withstand the stresses they can assume and detect problems that the designer can’t anticipate.

Ensures more complete testing than prototype testing. Although testing physical prototypes is a natural assumption that it will be the most complete test in basket design, the ability of virtual testing for years of simulation is more complete in the long run. After all, the actual prototype test can last long before the production delay begins. The ability of the FEA software to identify stress in a matter of minutes over a long period of time helps identify problems that only appear after a few months of use.

This allows you to repeat the design more quickly. Because many custom designs need to be completed on a tight schedule, delays in actual prototyping can reduce corners. The design can achieve one or two new iterations to solve the obvious problems found during the actual prototype testing. Because FEA is completed in a matter of minutes, design iterations can be done dozens of times in one or two design iterations. This will allow you to polish your final product design as much as possible.

Relatively fast and easy to perform stress analysis tests can improve the overall quality of your customized wire form. Being able to complete a test quickly means you can complete more design iterations. This means that there is more opportunity to polish the design and make certain applications as good as possible.
