Design Optimization Services
At CADify, we use the latest FEA software tools and techniques to perform design studies and topology optimization to help our clients reduce material volume while maintaining stiffness and other critical design requirements. By automating these studies, we can evaluate a wide range of design options and identify the optimal solution quickly and efficiently.
Design studies involve simulating and analyzing the behavior of a product under various conditions, such as load, stress, and strain. By performing these studies, we can evaluate the performance of a product and identify areas where it can be optimized. For example, we can determine the optimal placement of supports, evaluate different materials, and determine the ideal shape and size of a product.
Topology optimization is a process that involves defining the design space and applying specific constraints to determine the optimal topology of a product. By using FEA software tools, we can automatically generate a range of design options that meet your specific requirements, such as stiffness, weight, and cost.
Through design studies and topology optimization, we can help you reduce material costs, improve product performance, and shorten your product development cycle. Our experienced team of engineers and designers works closely with you to understand your specific needs and provide customized solutions to meet your goals.
Types of Design Optimization Services We Offer
At CADify Services, we provide a comprehensive range of design optimization services to enhance your project outcomes. Here are the design optimization services we offer:
Design Study: Perform a systematic evaluation of your design's performance by adjusting variables such as dimensions, materials, or other factors. Design study allows you to find the optimal configuration that meets your specific goals.
Topology Optimization: Generate the ideal component shape based on specified requirements and manufacturing constraints. This approach allows you to optimize the design for stiffness, weight, frequency, and other criteria while considering the manufacturing process.

Our Process
Define project requirements: Our team of engineers and designers works closely with you to understand your project requirements, including your design intent, specifications, and performance goals.
Create finite element model: We create a finite element model of your product, which involves identifying material properties, defining the loads and constraints, and other inputs needed to run the FEA analysis.
Run FEA analysis: We run the FEA analysis to evaluate the behavior of your product under various conditions. This provides critical insight into the behavior of your product and can help identify potential issues and weaknesses.
Establish design study: Based on the results of the FEA analysis, we may establish a design study to evaluate different design options. We link global variables such as dimensions and equations to the design study to ensure that it reflects your specific design requirements.
Perform topology optimization: If topology optimization is deemed appropriate, we perform this process to determine the optimal design for your product, based on specific constraints such as stiffness, weight, and cost.
Evaluate design options: Using the results of the FEA analysis, design study, and topology optimization (if performed), we evaluate a range of design options and select the best options for further optimization.
Refine and optimize design: Based on the results of the evaluation, we refine and optimize the design of your product to meet your specific requirements.
Provide recommendations: We provide detailed recommendations to improve the performance and efficiency of your product design. This may include changes to the design, material selection, or other factors that can optimize your product for manufacturing and ensure that it meets your performance goals.
Post-project support: We provide post-project support to ensure that your product meets your design requirements and performance goals. We can work with you to make any necessary revisions to the design or provide additional support as needed.
