Cutting‑Edge Research & Testing
While our in‑house engineers excel at carbon fiber analysis, we also partner with leading experts across the country to enhance our capabilities. A notable example is our NYSTAR grant, which facilitated collaborative testing with Cornell University. Their research lab provided critical data for improving our internal design databases and validating real‑world performance.
Collaborative R&D with Cornell
Through the NYSTAR-supported initiative, our team worked closely with Cornell’s advanced composites researchers to conduct mechanical testing, environmental exposure trials, and microstructural evaluations. These studies gave us deeper insight into material behavior under demanding conditions, helping us accelerate innovation for aerospace, robotics, and instrumentation applications.
Model Refinements and Data Validation
By integrating Cornell’s independent test results into our internal simulations, we were able to refine predictive models of stiffness, strength, and fatigue life. This validation not only improved the accuracy of our design tools but also ensured that our customers receive components engineered with proven, real-world reliability.
Continual Improvement in Composite Engineering
Our partnership exemplifies the cycle of continual improvement that defines Element 6 Composites. Each collaborative project adds to our knowledge base, strengthens our design methodology, and allows us to push the boundaries of what carbon fiber composites can achieve in high-performance engineering.
Tailored Analysis for Diverse Projects
Our carbon fiber analysis services benefit a broad range of industries and applications. Whether you’re designing lightweight prosthetics, aerospace components, or renewable energy structures, we tailor each simulation to your specific load conditions and performance targets.
