Optimize Mechanical Designs with Force Analysis Simulation Services by IDEA

Introduction

Our client, a Japanese company renowned for developing high-precision mechanical components used in gaming machines, faced increasing demands for accuracy, durability, and time-to-market. To address these challenges, they partnered with IDEA to leverage our force analysis simulation services, ensuring enhanced product reliability and cost-effective development.

Challenges

• Design accuracy and durability: The client required detailed simulations to evaluate load-bearing capacity and optimize the structural integrity of both individual parts and mechanical assemblies.
• Faster product development: Operating in a competitive market, the client needed to accelerate the design validation process without compromising quality.
• Minimized prototyping costs: Reducing the number of physical test builds was essential to saving both time and resources.

IDEA’s Simulation-Based Force Analysis Solution

Force analysis of individual parts and assemblies

• Detailed simulation for components and assemblies: Using advanced features in SolidWorks Simulation, IDEA conducted stress tests, load analysis, and fatigue evaluations on critical components.
• Design optimization from simulation data: Based on simulation results, IDEA recommended structural improvements to reduce material usage while enhancing strength and durability.

Result Delivered

• Enhanced design robustness: Simulations uncovered potential failure points early, allowing design modifications before production. This drastically reduced risks and ensured higher-quality output. force analysis simulation services
• 25% faster development time: With approximately 400–500 design hours annually, IDEA helped cut down 100 hours per year by streamlining design validation using precise simulation reports.
• 30% fewer physical prototypes: Accurate simulation reduced the need for costly physical prototypes, significantly lowering product development expenses. force analysis simulation services
