Latest Use Cases

  • Anisotropic creep prediction of injection-molded short-glass-fiber-reinforced parts

    Creep is a time dependent deformation process that happens to materials under a certain stress level. However, with proper design and material choices, thermoplastics can be a suitable material for parts with a creep load. Predictability is key when designing load-bearing components. It reduces development time, enables first-time right design and ensures part performance in service. In this Use Case we evaluated an example of creep of a compression limiter. Focusing on the modelling of creep as function of time of injection molded short-glass-fiber-reinforced plastics (SFRP).

  • Accurately predict fatigue lifetime of injection-molded short-glass-fiber reinforced plastics components

    Fatigue is concerned with alternating or cyclic loads, even when the load levels are well below the strength of the applied material. Depending on the component, over time such a load will lead to part failure. Based on conducting extensive experiments, we developed a robust framework considering all essential aspects for fatigue. This Use Case focuses on results of our fatigue/lifetime modelling framework for injection molded glass-fiber reinforced plastics, using the example of the load bracket demonstrator.

  • Mitigate ventilator-acquired pneumonia with safer ventilator tubing

    Ventilator tubing is a bacterial breeding ground, increasing the risk of ventilator acquired pneumonia (VAP). Many patients on ventilators in ICUs suffer from this. Most current breathing circuits are made from non-breathable materials. Thankfully, there is a material that enables permeation of moisture directly out through tubing walls. Envalior’s Arnitel® offers a superior engineering material solution with ultra-high moisture vapor transmission rates.

  • Material innovation for next-gen ADAS

    As radars become more compact in all three dimensions while operating at higher power, thermal management and EMI shielding solutions based on engineering materials solutions become more essential. Envalior offers a complete laser weldable material portfolio for radomes and back covers, ranging from pbt to low dk/df pps up to highly conductive pps compounds. While Envalior continues Xytron innovation, we also leverage the proven properties of Arnite PBT in radar applications.

  • Sustainability in the medical device market

    Climate change and depleting resources are key environmental themes for future material use. A shift to a circular economy, where suppliers become users and consumers suppliers, is imminent, and companies must drive this change economically. In medical applications, re-use and refurbishment will extend product life and reduce resource pressure, while new product manufacturing will remain essential. Both cycles are crucial for the future.

  • Material safety and performance for low voltage switch gears

    Globally, electric energy consumption is expected to double by 2050. This is due in large part to the growth of sustainability focused technologies, including smart grids, electric cars and connected homes. To meet increasing demands and the need for more sustainable power systems, power distribution providers work closely with equipment manufacturers to optimize compact electrical systems – including low voltage switch gears for residential and industrial electrical distribution. Designed to handle more power, low voltage switch gears are highly durable, and better integrate with next-generation electrical distribution technology.
