Simulation to support design and performance validation

As an example, in our pressure vessel work we have used Abaqus for:

Failure analysis and strength
prediction

Optimization to improve weight, strength and lifetime (refuelling, temperature effects, etc)

Accurately predict behaviour of
filament wound pressure vessel by transferring the filament winding data into FEA

Leading Material Insights

Because CCP Gransden has one of the UK’s largest selections of advanced composite manufacturing processes available at our facility, we are seen as a key partner by global material suppliers. This partnership enables CCP Gransden to have access to new and prototype materials before they are available on the market. It also allows us access to additional technical support from material suppliers when working on client solutions.

CCP Gransden has the in-house capability to complete projects in any stage; from the design and manufacture of tooling for prototype component manufacture, right through to optimising TAKT times for high-volume production. Championing our dynamic capacity allows us to deliver solutions to a wide array of specialist projects. All of these projects are driven forward by our reliable and committed team who have a demonstrated history of high-quality workmanship.
