Mastering Assembly Distortion Engineering in Body & Chassis Manufacturing
Brochures
This brochure explains how assembly distortion engineering and virtual manufacturing simulation help automotive body and chassis teams ensure assemblies remain within strict geometric tolerances. Engineers can virtually test assemblies from early nominal CAD through simulated and scanned parts, evaluating distortions caused by clamping, gap‑closing, welding sequences, heat effects, and joining processes long before physical builds. The solution supports distortion prediction, weld‑sequence optimization, fixture validation, and countermeasure definition, enabling manufacturers to reduce prototypes, prevent over‑engineering of single parts, accelerate pre‑production, and achieve high structural integrity and dimensional accuracy.
