ANÁLISE DA CONFIABILIDADE DE DESENVOLVIMENTO DE PRODUTO ATRAVÉS DE CAD/CAE

Abstract

CAD and CAE tools such as new product development and proposition of reliability indices were evaluated in implementing a system component conformation mechanical injection in an industry of electric showers. The application of qualitative tools detects critical flaws of such a system and identified a design specification for design problem solving. The finite element analysis (FEA) allowed the construction of a new type of needle for the injection mold and after the period of deployment and tuning was collected new samples of practical application, aimed to compare the results of the conventional system. The consolidated results confirm a significant increase of performance criteria observed, especially with regard to the functions failure rate, MTTF and reliability, allowing infer that the computing resources, constitute itself as an alternative to solving the unmistakable design problems this nature.
