Simulation for reliable drivetrains

We develop simulation software for static and dynamic analysis of drivetrains and offer engineering services – based in Kiel, Germany.

Software

New simulation software · coming early 2027

Account for the dynamic effects standard design misses

Our software simulates the dynamic behaviour of rolling bearings together with their elastic surrounding structure. Cage loads and the frictional energy in each contact are calculated. Failure modes that lead to bearing failures in the field can thus be addressed early in design, and the root causes of existing problems can be identified. The first release is tailored to double-row tapered roller bearings (2TRB) used as rotor bearings; further drivetrain components will follow.

Short computation times

Our highly optimised contact algorithms are more than 100× faster than conventional FE contact methods – at the same result quality.

Easy and reliable to use

No dynamics or FE expertise required: models are set up from familiar parameters, and despite the nonlinear FE model, results are presented as in standard design tools.

Fully coupled system behaviour

Rings, rollers, cage and surrounding structure are coupled as flexible bodies in one nonlinear FE model – without the usual linearization or rigid-body simplifications.

Engineering

Engineering services

Our team combines proprietary simulation technology with more than 25 years of industry experience in mechanical design and the wind industry. We carry out calculations and simulations for bearings, drivetrains and structures. Based on our technology, we also develop custom software such as model generators and post-processing tools for your application.
