FKM guidelines for the computational strength verification of machine components
ITB is your reliable partner, specialized in FKM guidelines and FEM structural mechanics. Are you wondering how you can ensure sufficient strength of your mechanical engineering components or related areas? Proven by over 2850 successful projects, we develop customized solutions according to the FKM guidelines for your individual challenges.
Why FKM guidelines?
If your component cannot be assigned to a specific set of rules with strength requirements, the FKM guideline can often be used for the computational strength verification of machine components to assess and guarantee reliability and safety. In conjunction with the FEM calculation, you gain in-depth insights into the stresses on your components and thus have the opportunity to optimize the component design quickly and efficiently. This leads to significant time and cost savings compared to traditional testing methods and also supports the promotion of innovation and design excellence.
Flexibility
The FKM guidelines can be used flexibly and cover a wide range of materials and load types, making them suitable for various applications and industries.
Quality assurance
By applying these guidelines, companies can ensure the quality and reliability of their products, resulting in higher customer satisfaction.
Legal protection
Compliance with the FKM guidelines provides a degree of legal protection for components without a binding national application standard, particularly in the case of liability issues.
Promotion of innovations
Even geometrically complex components can be evaluated with the help of the FKM guideline. This provides a framework for innovative solutions without compromising safety and reliability.
