EDware SAR is a unique knowledge based analytical software to identify critical squeak and rattle locations from any complicated mechanical or structural assembly.
EDware SAR provides a simple, accurate, real time cost-effictive solution to solve SAR issues at a very early product development phase.
EDware SAR identifies critical Squeak and Rattle Locations fully automatically for you!
Now out:
More performance, easier to use
EDware SAR V6 with material combinations database for squeak Analysis (optional).
New Features
- Cross platform 64 Bit application (Windows, Linux)
- Improved data management via new project file concept (multiple models, solver databases and result databases at the same time)
- Smaller memory footprint
- Major performance improvements (loading times, rendering speed, SAR processing time)
- Best practice process enhancements from the experience and feedback of the former EDware versions
- Optional material combinations database with ca. 25.000 material pairs
General Features
- Uses existing FEA models of any standard NVH, durability or safety simulation
- Automates virtual SAR evaluation with minimal user interaction
- Provides part pairs along with critical locations
- Accounts for material (impact and friction) properties
- Accounts for thermal influence
- Supports automatic report generation as well as interactive dynamic results visualization
- User defined customized presentation of results
