Mechanical Design, Assembly and Testing
Michigan Aerospace Corporation uses cutting-edge
technologies and methods in the design and fabrication of mechanical
systems. With a combination of analytical engineering practices,
finite element analysis, and dynamic computer simulation, our
engineers produce solid, efficient systems to meet a variety
of design challenges. Our staff has a wide range of design experience
in several different fields, and has developed hardware to perform
tasks ranging from compliant autonomous docking of spacecraft
for refueling and servicing to nano-scale positioning actuators
for optical components.
Michigan Aerospace's develops our mechanical systems
using the latest version of SolidWorks, then evaluates every
design with a rigorous testing program. NASTRAN and COSMOS are
used to perform finite element analyses for characterizing static
structural behavior, vibration frequency response, and thermal
effects of all systems designed. MSC.ADAMS software is used
to create dynamic computer models for virtual prototyping, virtual
testing, and dynamic simulation of environmental effects and
internal interaction of components. Failure modes and effects
analyses are used to perform risk mitigation and to produce
leading-edge solutions that exceed customer expectations.
Whatever the design challenges, Michigan Aerospace
has the technology, tools, and talent to rapidly develop, cost-efficient,
robust, and innovative solutions.
