Design Assistance

By considering the vibration and shock requirements of an application in the early stages of equipment design, customers can ensure that an optimum solution is found to their vibration and shock problems. It is natural for equipment designers to focus on their areas of expertise, which is their primary task after all. This can often lead to the shock and vibration requirements being considered late on in the design process, when factors such as installation type, equipment size, and how the item is constructed have already been decided and set.

This can result in a less than optimum solution being used, or even much of the existing design having to be changed to accommodate a shock or vibration solution. Compromises are often made, and solutions with much lower vibration or shock protection have to be chosen. This leads to further costs and projects that can overrun.

The technical team at Caparo Dynamics are able to assist customers in the early stages of design and development to ensure that the appropriate design criteria are in place. This can not only save time and money, but ensures equipment can meet its specification without compromise.
