At Fox Core, we see nature as a lightweight construction virtuoso. In nature, material is only used where it is absolutely necessary to absorb the loads acting on it.

However, the challenge in imitating natural structures is that complex and expensive manufacturing processes are often required to comply with lightweight construction principles.

To overcome this challenge, we at Fox Core have developed our own development process for production- and load-compliant design.

Our Lightweight Construction Development Steps

1. FE Structural Analysis

based on load scenario/ operating loads

2. Main Load Paths & Partial Elements

Deriving main load paths and defining functional sub-elements

3. Dimensioning & Arrangement

Dimensioning and production- and load-appropriate arrangement of the sub-elements

4. Automated Prototype Production

1.

FE structural analysis based on load scenario/operating loads
Initial situation: Welded heavy-duty bracket; aluminum
Deriving operating scenarios

2.

Derive main load paths and define functional sub-elements
FE-based load analysis
Drainage of particularly stressed component zones

3.

Dimensioning and production- and load-appropriate arrangement of the sub-elements
Arrangement of the sub-elements in line with production and load requirements

4.

Automated prototype production
Fully laser-welded lightweight element
