Physical modelling

We offer the following services in physical modelling:

Modelling of almost any temperature and deformation profiles on specimens for the purpose of optimising industrial processes, such as rolling, forging, extrusion, pressing, and others
Simulations of the effects of forming process parameters on the resulting microstructure
Comprehensive modelling of forming processes by means of combined physical and numerical simulations

Physical modelling of forming processes is carried out using a unique system in our laboratory. The system enables us to simulate a wide range of temperature and deformation profiles.

Basic parameters of physical simulator

Heating rate: up to 150 °C/s
Cooling rate: up to 150 °C/s
Maximum frequency for cyclic loading: 30 Hz
Maximum deformation rate: 600 mm/s
Maximum force: 250 kN
