Finite Element Analysis (FEA) Services
At IGI, we provide advanced finite element analysis services to help engineers and manufacturers test how parts, assemblies, and structures will perform under real-world conditions. Using industry-leading software, our team simulates stress, strain, vibration, and fatigue, giving clients insights that traditional design methods can’t provide.
By identifying weaknesses and validating designs before fabrication, FEA reduces costly prototyping, shortens development cycles, and ensures that finished products perform as intended. Whether you’re designing custom machinery, testing structural components, or validating assemblies for safety compliance, IGI delivers accurate analysis backed by professional drafting expertise.
Understanding the Process
Finite element analysis works by dividing a model into thousands of smaller, interconnected elements. Loads and constraints are applied to these elements to predict how the overall structure will react under specific conditions.
Our process begins with creating accurate digital models of your part or assembly. We then apply real-world forces such as weight, pressure, temperature, or vibration to simulate performance. The results highlight stress concentrations, potential failure points, and opportunities for design optimization. Finally, we provide a clear, professional report that guides decision-making and ensures compliance with industry standards.
Applications
-
Mechanical components – Stress and fatigue testing for gears, brackets, frames, and housings.
-
Structural assemblies – Beams, plates, and enclosures analyzed for load-bearing capacity.
-
Thermal and vibration testing – Simulating heat distribution, vibration impact, and resonance.
-
Prototype validation – Reducing the number of physical prototypes by testing virtually first.
Benefits of Finite Element Analysis Services for Your Project
Without FEA, design flaws often emerge only during prototyping or — worse — after fabrication. With IGI, clients gain:
-
Cost savings – Fewer prototypes and less material waste.
-
Improved safety – Identify weaknesses before they lead to failures.
-
Optimized performance – Refine designs for strength, weight, or durability.
-
Faster development cycles – Accelerate time to market with digital validation.
Why IGI?
FEA requires more than software — it requires expertise in both modeling and interpretation. IGI combines advanced CAD drafting with engineering insight, ensuring that your analysis results are accurate, practical, and actionable. We don’t just deliver simulations; we provide clear recommendations you can use to refine your designs and move forward with confidence.
