Rüsselsheim, Germany, 19 April 2016. Tecosim Technische Simulation GmbH and Fast Concept Modelling & Simulation (FCMS) GmbH will be jointly presenting their TEC|CONCEPT process solution for the first time at the Car Body Construction Conference in Hamburg in May. This new method speeds up design definition in the early concept stage and provides faster virtual vehicle development.
Contemporary vehicle manufacture calls for lightweight design, innovative materials and alternative manufacturing methods. Virtual vehicle development plays an increasingly important role in achieving related, specific de-ign objectives since it helps to speed up the process and make implementation more cost effective.
The CAE specialist Tecosim and software company FCMS, experts in process efficiency and shape parameters, are presenting TEC|CONCEPT, their new approach to accelerating the development process in the early concept stage, at the Car Body Construction Conference in Hamburg. The approach consists of an ingenious method to calculate complete vehicle or compo-nent designs which pinpoint optimisation potential not only during the early development phase, but also in detailing at a later stage.
The method was devised by a development consortium consisting of Teco-sim, FCMS, Dynardo GmbH and Munich University of Applied Sciences. Professor Klemens Rother from the university will be representing the group as he explains innovative computer-based chassis design concept development in his lecture on 10 May.
TEC|CONCEPT can be used to harmonise complex and varied requirements for aspects such as quality, weight, rigidity and crash behaviour at an early stage in development. Considerable potential can also be leveraged for platform and derivative development with regard to development costs, reduction in development times and increases in product quality through calculation optimisation and generation of variants.
Individual development specifications can also be taken into account regarding function or feasibility for aspects such as such as paintwork adhesion, deep drawability, welding and cost trends.
Interested visitors can gain an insight into TEC|CONCEPT at the accompanying trade exhibition.
