Much of our FEA work has involved first and second tier suppliers, such as the analysis of chassis, suspension, engine, gearboxes and other power transmission components, while we also have extensive experience supporting the design of exhaust systems.

Typical objectives include both static and dynamic validation, including fatigue and weld assessment, and light weighting.


Injection Molding
Large production volumes and stringent quality requirements mean that plastic simulation prior to manufacturing can lead to significant benefits for both product and tooling design. Our injection moulding software, Moldex3D and consulting services are widely used within the automotive industry. Moldex3D is designed for auto manufacturers and design engineers to simulate and verify complex auto parts/moulds based on true 3D technology.
With Moldex3D, auto designers or makers are able to manage the life cycle of a product from its conception, through design and manufacturing. This also helps component designers or suppliers to get rid of most potential problems in the early stage. Also, visualisation of the entire injection moulding processes of auto parts allows users to obtain solutions more efficiently. In addition, through Moldex3D FEA Interface, products with potential process-induced variation such as fibre orientation and residual stress can be analysed with various structure analysis packages.
Multiphysics
More recently, the simulation of electro-mechanical and electronic systems has become widespread, enabled through ANSYS mutiphysics solutions that include electromagnetics, fluid dynamics and thermal management capabilities to complement structural FEA. For example, Warwick Manufacturing Group has chosen our ANSYS software and technical support services to support a variety of significant research projects into advanced, low carbon propulsion technologies.

Metal Forming
We sell and use DEFORM for optimising the manufacture of high integrity metal parts in addition to fastener design. We can also call upon extensive experience in deep drawing, stretch forming and other sheet metal processes.


Design for Reliability
FMECA and associated Design for Reliability services are provided to support a wide range of reliability and quality planning initiatives for next-generation vehicles, including DFMEA, PFEMA and PPAP, APQP. Among other benefits, our reliability software and services help our clients:
- Use data-driven analysis to address today’s demanding performance specifications, while capturing enterprise-wide knowledge within a self-improving, closed-loop system.
- Accurately predict reliability performance during the warranty period to improve customer satisfaction and realize significant savings.
ReliaSoft Synthesis tools are used widely by companies such as Caterpillar, Komatsu, Volvo Trucks, Delphi and Ford to reduce life cycle costs. We have undertaken a range of reliability-related consulting projects such as fault tree analysis of an active roll control system, life data analysis on an articulated dump truck and risk population studies on casting components. We have also implemented ReliaSoft-based XFRACAS systems to help 1st tier automotive suppliers manage and efficiently utilise their failure data from both tests and in-service products.
Ours has been a partnership that has grown in strength and maturity and promises to follow that trend moving forward.
Eminox
In addition to providing engineering services to Eminox, Wilde also are also our software providers (ANSYS), and have actively led discussions around developments within the software to show how some of these could enhance our day-to-day FE requirements. These sessions have been extremely productive in helping shape the strategy for the development of FEA within Eminox – it has helped me immensely to review the direction for virtual analysis led design within Eminox.

The Consulting Analysis that Wilde supplies to our business from their expert engineering team is fantastic and gives us confidence in the services we provide, safe in the knowledge that we can deliver on time and within budget.
Applied Component Technology Ltd
…information gained from Wilde FEA training has improved my productivity no ends – Thank you.
PMC Harvesters
Wilde Analysis Ltd are a very professional and competent organisation and employees.
JCB Landpower
The content of the course was perfectly tailored to our applications & level of detail required. I like the teaching style of introducing the broad topics in their basics & then going through each again in the next level of detail & then again at a higher level. Each time you feel like you know about the topic & can build on it which is very confidence inspiring... great technique.
Red Bull Technology
One on one focus day was an excellent introduction. The level of focused preparation is much appreciated. Your tutors managed to pack a remarkable amount in two days whilst answering all my questions – very useful course.
Henrob
I was very impressed with the knowledge and tools available to us through Wilde and the accuracy of their first model predictions compared to my test results. This has already become a seminal piece of work that will underpin a significant future product development.
Edbro
Overall good experience, tutor very kind and open for all our questions... Really useful course... Perfect examples that well explained the use and functions of ANSYS DesignModeler... The tutor was very knowledgeable and helpful!
JCB Excavators
Outstanding software. I’ve been trying to force reliability methods into other software. It’s a relief to use a system specifically designed for reliability.
Cummins Turbo Technology
We always appreciate Wilde’s approach as working with them is very beneficial for us, both in terms of project costs & knowledge transfer. They are very open about the results, barriers & difficulties involved, & do their utmost to make sure the models are validated, which not many other companies would do. Wilde go to great lengths to produce the accurate results we need, that’s why we have developed a successful working relationship.
Eminox
... Our improved in-house capability has speeded up our development schedules & helps us to progress our designs & testing much faster, with lead time reductions of around 80%...We see Wilde as a key partner in the development of our skills & software capability.
Nifco
The particular assembly that was evaluated is fitted into what we would consider to be a severe application. The study based on the FE analysis results demonstrated that there were no areas that are significantly highly stressed which in turn gives confidence with similar designs fitted to less demanding applications. The study that Wilde performed for us gives us confidence to look for similar type of assistance in the future.
Helical Technology
I was very satisfied with the end result and manner of analysis Wilde carried out for us, their input was invaluable to the project design review, they played a major part in obtaining our goal.
Global Gas Company
The guys at Wilde Analysis are very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. I advise anyone needing analysis/training to make contact with Wilde. I thoroughly enjoyed my 3 days training and will be completing another course in the near future.
SET Europe
Wilde Analysis achieved everything that we asked of them, within the required timescale. The results were presented exactly as requested and we’re very pleased with the outcome.
