Natec and F4E have developed a simulation and analysis tool for the design phase of big and complex welding assemblies in order to get the finest manufacturing process and develop the best jig structure. Industries dealing with massive and complex pieces, where the pattern of the manufacturing steps is crucial, are concerned, such as building and public work, space, electronic cases and plugs.

Technology assets

• avoiding deformation due to thermal and mechanical effects of welding operations;
• applicability of distortion prediction to massive and complex assemblies;
• applications in vacuum vessels, coil cases, port plugs, space, energy facilities or in complex construction infrastructures.
