What we deliver

Your own simulation capability — or ours, on demand.

01 / SOFTWARE

DEFORM™ licenses & implementation

Bring forming and heat‑treatment simulation in‑house. We size the right configuration, install it, train your engineers on your own parts and stay on call afterwards.

Industries

Built for parts that cannot fail.

Aerospace

Engine and airframe suppliers working to tight property and distortion specs.

  • Turbine and compressor disks — grain size and die fill in Ni superalloys
  • Engine casings and seal rings — ring rolling sequence, fishtail and ovality
  • Gearbox gears and shafts — carburizing, quench distortion, residual stress
  • Landing gear and Ti fittings — forging laps, α/β microstructure
Aerospace applications →

Defense

Producers scaling output fast, with no room for trial-and-error scrap.

  • Artillery shell bodies — hot forging, nosing and heat treatment
  • Cartridge cases — multi-stage drawing, wall thickness, tooling life
  • Gun barrels — radial forging and residual stress
  • Armor and drivetrain components — quench cracking and distortion
Defense applications →
Process capabilities

What we predict — before the shop floor finds it.

MATERIALS Ni superalloys — IN718, Waspaloy Titanium — Ti‑6Al‑4V, Ti‑6242 Carburizing steels — Pyrowear 53, AISI 9310 Aluminium — 7xxx, 2xxx Armor & gun steels
Case study

Gas quenching of carburized aero‑engine gearbox gears

A coupled thermal–metallurgical–mechanical model of high‑pressure gas quenching for Pyrowear 53 gears — the subject of our founder’s doctoral research.

PROBLEMDistortion and hardness scatter after quenching drive grinding stock and scrap on high‑value gears.
MODELCarbon profile from carburizing, quench gas flow and heat transfer, phase transformation and stress evolution.
RESULTA route to choosing quench pressure and part orientation by calculation — and to predicting distortion before the first gear is quenched.
How we work

From first call to shop‑floor answer.

  1. 01NDA and a 30‑minute call. The part, the material, the problem.
  2. 02Scope and fixed quote. Questions to answer, data needed, timeline.
  3. 03Model, validate, iterate. Calibrated against your trials or measurements.
  4. 04Report and handover. Recommendations plus the models, ready to reuse in DEFORM.
