OUR PHILISOPHY
- Most often we are engaged
to achieve one of the following goals:
→ Cost reduction
→ Enhanced performance
→ Material reduction or change
→ Miniaturisation
Whatever the brief we can normally achieve it.

MECHANICAL ANALYSIS & DESIGN
Whatever the brief we can normally achieve it. An outline of our capabilities is as follows:
MECHANICAL DESIGN
This is often an unappreciated discipline and one
which is poorly practised on a wide scale. Good mechanical design, combined with knowledge of manufacturing techniques and costs is invaluable when
it comes to assisting clients
with the design of their assemblies. Knowing how to produce tolerance mating parts andhow various assembly
techniques are applied is key. Translating these into
accurate 3D models and drawings is necessary to
communicate the
design to the manufacturing area. Finally, knowing
how the materials behave mechanically within their environment will lead to better design, a better finished
productand a more durable product in the field.
MECHANICAL ANALYSIS
Using FEA analysis we can load and fix a component in a multitude of different ways and look at how that component will perform, or more than often deform under that load. An illustration of his would be the high speed rotating machines we design at Goudsmit UK. Often how a machine behaves mechanically is more important and more difficult to predict than how it behaves magnetically. A good understanding of materials and manufacturing techniques is necessary to carry-out this type of work and combined with our expertise in component supply we can match up the design and production disciplines.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
As with mechanical analysis we need to ensure that any design works thermally, whether that be in a high temperature environment or generating thermal energy which needs to be dissipated. Radiation and convection patterns need to be understood to allow the design to be optimised to provide the heating or cooling function required.
