ORANGE CITY, IA, March 19, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Quatro Composites will be displaying and talking about their new proprietary methodology, OptiPart , designed to optimize the structural performance (weight, strength, stiffness, cost) of carbon fiber components for the first time at the JEC show in Paris. Quatro can be found in the Discovery Village, stand #H6.
Structural optimization combines state-of-the-art design capabilities with conventional finite element analysis (FEA). Structural performance is the design driver in the concept stage rather than later in the development process. This method uses mathematical techniques to produce an optimized shape and material distribution for a given loading condition and for a variety of material models, including composite structures.
This approach improves design performance and minimizes cost and material waste.
"The future is bright for our business," said Doug Roberts, Quatro's V.P. of Sales & Marketing. "The large scale airframe manufacturers have launched a metal-to-composite conversion initiative like the world has never seen. This unique tool has gained Quatro significant notoriety with the airframers. We are actively contributing to this global initiative by delivering structural composite hardware with failure prediction and 50% weight savings."
Quatro has also recently received NADCAP accreditation for Prepreg/Adhesive Bonding, Resin Film Infusion and Core Processing.
