New machine design and engineering review
Structural and mechanical design for new machines and major upgrades, including machine balance, structural members, mechanical components, drive requirements and design interfaces. Independent reviews can be provided within an agreed scope.
Structural design
Loads, structural members, connections, fatigue, machine balance, stability and wheel reactions.
Mechanical design
Component loads, pins, shafts, wheels, drive requirements and mechanical interfaces within the agreed scope.
What the work can deliver
- A documented design basis covering loads, operating duty, structural arrangements and mechanical interfaces.
- Structural and mechanical design calculations, including strength, fatigue, stability, wheel loads and drive requirements within the agreed scope.
- Prioritised design issues, required inputs and practical next steps.
When to involve ACE
- A new machine or major upgrade is being developed.
- Critical assumptions or interfaces need specialist review before detailed design.
- The design team needs support preparing for an independent audit.
