Composites consultancy with integrated practical support

Writer's picture: Matt DawsonMatt Dawson

At #OrthotropicEngineering we offer composites-focused design, analysis and consultancy services. Much of our work involves the analysis of #compositestructures using FEA software (we've recently adopted ANSYS) as well as more time-honoured methods; we're certainly not scared of hand-calcs when these are most appropriate!

We're also often involved in #engineeringdesign and development programmes, addressing questions of materials selection and manufacturing process specification. When these issues arise, we're more than happy to deploy our practical expertise, workshop and test facilities - conducting the trials necessary to ensure that engineering decisions are firmly grounded.

The items shown in the picture above were all manufactured by Orthotropic - for test or evaluation at Orthotropic. They include tension and ILS coupons, lap shear coupons, corner TT tension coupons, moisture uptake samples and thick panel trial infusion cutouts.


So please do get in touch, especially if you suspect that your #composites challenge may require more than just a desk and a computer to solve - we'd love to hear from you!
