Engineering Solutions
Vaftsy can provide design support to your business.

We can engage in your design process, right from
Product conception to Product delivery

We shall add value to your business, in the
following areas






Increased Reliability of Products

Anticipation of Potential Problem Areas
Quicker Delivery of Design
Flexibility for Design Changes

FEA Introduction
FEA is methodology for Virtual analysis of
Engineering Components

FEA is aimed at simulating working conditions of
Products, and analyzing the performance of the
product.

FEA enables designers to anticipate problems with
components, and hence deliver better designs

CASE Study
FEA was done for a tooling component being
manufactured at one of our clients

We performed an analysis for Upper Punch being
used for Tablet manufacturing

The Data that is required for analysis, is





Material Properties (Youngs Modulus, Poisson's Ratio,

Yield Strength, Ultimate Strength)
Component Drawings
Boundary Conditions

CASE Study 3D Model

Vaftsy was provided with

drawings for the Upper
Punch
These Drawings were
converted in to Model
using software CATIA

CASE Study - Meshing

The CATIA Model, was

imported into
HYPERMESH and a
Graded Mesh was
generated for it.

Case Study - Solution

The working conditions

were then simulated on
ANSYS, by applying
suitable Boundary
Conditions

Case Study Post Proc.

The results obtained from the FEA analysis were
POST PROCESSED using ANSYS

The POST PROCESSED plots, give information
about






The Magnitude of Maximum Stresses

The Critical Locations for Stresses
The Magnitude and Location of Maximum Deformation
The Directional Deformation Plots

Case Study - Results

Deformation Plot

Case Study - Results

Stress Plot

Case Study Analysis

The Results highlighted critical sections in the Punch,

which were at the Punch Tip

Case Study Analysis

The Directional Deformation results were more

conclusive, indicating, eccentric deformation at the
pentagon tip region than at the base

Case Study Analysis

The Initial Analysis, indicated that the full load of
the machine, was detrimental to performance of
the component

Secondary Analysis was performed on the model,
to ascertain the safe limit of force.

The understanding of the Initial Analysis was
crucial for finalizing the parameters for Secondary
Analysis

Case Study Findings

The Upper Punch might be

getting damaged because of
eccentric deformation at
pentagon tip.
It was essential to analyze the
Lower Punch for confirming
presence of eccentricity.
The eccentric deformation is
a direct result of the tablet
shape.
Specifically the relief of the
tablet surface, which leads to
weakening of the tip region

Case Study - Recommendations

Lower the force of impact. The process gives
acceptable results at 40% of total force.

Change the relief of the tablet surface.

Analysis of the lower punch will shed more light
on the performance of the Punches.

FEA Benefits

Modeling
3-D models are easy to manipulate for
design improvements
Analysis of designNew products can be simulated
virtually, to anticipate and solve potential problems.
Wastage of time in prototyping is cut down.
Understanding phenomena, empowers one to modify
design.
Time gap between conception phase to product release is
reduced tremendously.
In summary, it is an efficient and cost effective design
methodology.

Business Case
Business Problem
Available Resources engaged in analysis will
result in shortage for critical processes.

The Analysis projects, being fluctuating and

intermittent, more time is required to complete
the task, resulting in cost over-runs.
