Analytical calculations,
engineered to precision
High-precision analytical assessment of machine elements — combining proven, standards-based methods with custom engineering tools, and a deep specialization in bearing design.
Proven methods. Advanced tooling. Verifiable results.
We bring extensive expertise in high-precision analytical calculations for machine elements, combining proven methods with advanced engineering tools. Our team uses MITCalc software together with custom in-house tools developed in Mathcad and MATLAB for advanced analytical assessments — with a strong focus on bearing design.
- Standards-based verification — dimensioning and verification per established design codes and proven calculation methods.
- Custom in-house tools — Mathcad and MATLAB workflows tailored to your component, load case and environment.
- Bearing design specialization — from base life to parametrized life, lubrication and tolerance studies.

Scroll — the optimization run plays as you go
Optimization-driven design, not just checks
We go beyond pass/fail verification. Using single- and multi-objective optimization with evolutionary algorithms, we map the trade-off space of your design — life vs. friction, stiffness vs. mass, cost vs. reliability — and deliver the Pareto front of best achievable compromises.
The result: defensible design decisions backed by quantified trade-offs, not single-point guesses.
