- Closed-form analysis (machine design)
- Finite Element Analysis (deflection, stress, modal, thermal)
- Detailed manufacturing drawings utilizing Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing

Performance Driven Design
CBE remains ready to serve clients in industries that require a formal design process with characteristics such as, requirements specifications, analysis-driven solutions, and compliance documentation, as well as less formal industries that may only require no-less-critical 1st order closed-form analysis to prove concept feasibility before investing in prototype manufacturing. Engineering services include:
Design to Need
- Requirements spec generation
- Conceptual design and 1st order closed-form analysis
- Detailed design and Finite Element Analysis
- Analysis reports and compliance documentation
- Manufacturing drawings
3rd party Professional Engineering review
On-location engineering support
- Inspections and engineering evaluations
- Trouble shooting
- Off-road vehicle suspension tuning
