Many mechanical design projects require some analysis work to ensure predictable design intent results.  In addition, some clients are in need of analysis work to better understand the feasibility of a design before embarking upon the actual design of the product.  Precision Mechanical Design has extensive experience with the following types of analysis:

• Stress / Strain Analysis

• Finite Element Analysis

• Dynamics

• Dynamic Modeling of Mechanical Systems
  • (a typical example would be mathematically modeling the reflected intertias of various components of a machine as felt by the motors of the system to determine motor requirements)

• Magnetic Analysis (including equivalent magnetic circuit analysis)

• Shrink fits of cylindrical components

• Fatigue Analysis (i.e. life)

• Motor Selection

Precision Mechanical Design will often perform what we like to refer to as a "Bachelor's degree level of analysis".  That is, analysis using commonly accepted forms for mathematically modelling engineering situations.  These are typically represented well by first-order-approximation mathematics or basic analysis software.  In addition, for extremely critical analysis results, PMD can call upon resources with high-level specialties in various areas of mechanical / magnetic analysis, with access to very sophisticated  analysis software (such as Ansys for mechanical analysis, SPEED for motor design, etc.).
