Auxiliary Stabilizing Point
Full automation of an end-to-end component design without any manual steps.
Full automation of an end-to-end component design without any manual steps.
The auxiliary stabilizing point is installed between two frames of the Airbus A320‘s lower shell at the rear side of the airplane. It is used in final assembly and during maintenance in order to keep the aircraft level. Therefore, it carries part of the airplanes weight. So far, the developers at Premium AEROTEC have manually worked long hours in order to find the best design for this highly loaded component. With the help of our software, it was developed fully automatically.
Unlike conventional serial development processes with sketch based construction and manual FE-iterations, Generative Engineering allows an automated generation of lightweight designs with real time adaption to changing boundary conditions in one software environment. We created the technical DNA of the stabilizing point inlay rather than the component itself.
Within the DNA, the topology optimization visualizes load paths, which are adapted by parametric cross section optimization considering loads and manufacturing constraints. The automated smoothening of the structure and integration of attachment points is the last step of the automated process, leading to the final part.
