LEWIS & HICKEY LIMITED

Steel Machinery Parts manufactured by CNC machining center

Nowadays, engineers use highly specialized licensed software. Due to the construction complexity of certain diagram types or providing a strength calculation directly on the designs and parts blueprints, such software is a completely separate area of the engineering arsenal.Professional strength expert’s specialization allows taking a completely new look at the preliminary calculations of production and construction. Thanks to the masterful work of such specialists, each manufacturer may apply the famous «Rockefeller formula» when saving on one rivet or a couple of millimeters of material save millions on an industrial scale. Expert calculations of structural strength, presented in several versions, depending on the shape and material of the part, are extremely voluminous and require plug-ins to complement engineering programs. Services included in the professional strength engineer portfolio: Dlubal RFEM 5; ANSYS; NX Nastran; Robot Structural Analysis; Static and Seismic Calculat

Precise analytical engineering comes to be an acute aspect in a case the complex project development. One involves a structural analysis of each individual component and the entire structure as a whole. Correct technical parameter computation is especially important while designing equipment parts or complexes. Both cases, product complexity compression to a technically safe and functional level positively affects its cost in terms of material savings. To conduct strength calculations — a key parameter determining the material cost and design features of the future product shape — a completely separate class of engineering specialists is required. Strength Engineers use all their vast experience and the entire breadth of technical mechanics, materials, geometry, and even architecture knowledge base to build the most functional and reliable product, parts, and entire complex project designs.
