Virtual Engineering

Value Added Engineering Service: Predictive R&D Process as Part of the Virtual Development

These are the advantages of the virtual development process („VIRTUAL ENGINEERING“).

• faster and high-quality development process and lower R&D costs
• early detection of critical and weak points or technical restrictions
• significant quality improvement
• achievement of fundamental know how before finishing the product development (prediction of technical characteristics); systemizing the development process
• comparison of various engineering solutions and evaluation of different configurations; enabling alternative development steps in good time in advance
• minimizing the test periods and commissioning procedure (reducing the test series while improving the test quality)
• efficient team work when providing digital CAE models and the corresponding results
• better understanding of acquired experiences (measurements, field testings, calculations, observations and subjective evaluation); objective access to the results
• generating special evaluation functions for an objective grading of the system behavior (OSE = Objective System Evaluation)
• reasonable basis for strategic decisions in the product development process
• application of powerful simulation tools while keeping the model complexity limited

An impor­tant prin­ciple of our work:  It is not pri­mari­ly about the ad­ver­tis­ing effective and color­ful presen­tation of R&D efforts in im­pressive 3D pre­sen­ta­tions. In the first step, we al­ways pre­fer struc­tur­ed de­ve­lop­ment planning with power­ful simu­lation tools as aids. This in­volves an engi­neer­ing eva­luation and prac­tical assess­ment of the re­sults with regard to the spe­cified pro­duct develop­ment and pro­duct opti­mization. 3D com­puter mo­dels are certain­ly use­ful, but they do not re­place the main work of the de­ve­lop­ment engi­neer.

Use the engineering services by Laschet Consulting to create and realize your own virtual engineering environment: this is the so-called „Virtual Engineering On Demand“.

We would like to get into contact with you. Ask for a non-binding customer presentation realized by an online meeting (via WebEx).
