Have you experienced unexpected delays when introducing new bottle designs with no clear solutions? AGR is equipped to accelerate the design analysis process and ensure that your new product development is back on the fast track. If design related performance issues arise, AGR will work closely with your team to quickly resolve issues so all critical product milestones as well as the launching date are met.
Using the latest in solid modeling and finite element analysis (FEA) techniques, the design is refined through a collaborative effort with our customer.
 We use finite element analysis to evaluate the magnitude and location of stresses generated throughout the container caused by: static loads such as internal pressure, vertical load, and impact as well as transient loads such as thermal.
While bottle design performance can be modeled with proper software, it is the interpretation of the results that separates our analysis from the competition. Drawing from our expertise of glass surface strength, expected bottle performance and the limitations of glass manufacturing, we are uniquely positioned to certify that our interpretation of the computer-simulated results will closely replicate actual performance.
Computer design analysis is recommended for:
•New Designs: ensure there are no performance problem areas before first container is manufactured.
•Lightweight Existing Designs: determine the lightest glass weight
•Existing Designs: improve performance through small
changes in design and vertical glass distribution.
•Conceptual Designs: Achieve an acceptable container for its
intended use
