Sound theoretical design

Barre Thomas carries out system and functional analysis by evaluating and optimising products in their operating environment.

Our theoretical design capability enables us to reduce development costs and lead times.

Controlled product behaviour

Barre Thomas uses a variety of simulation tools :

• static behaviour
• dynamic behaviour
• behaviour on load / off load
• temperature resistance
• fatigue resistance
• noise

Our design tools are continuously updated and improved.

Controlled processes

Barre Thomas uses fabrication process simulation for :

• Rubber injection moulding
• Thermoplastic injection moulding
• Rubber extrusion
• Thermoplastic extrusion

Controlled materials behaviour

Barre Thomas bases its designs on a detailed knowledge of the behaviour of the materials used. The properties of all new materials are analysed and recorded in our databases.

Testing and trials

Barre Thomas has comprehensive resources for testing its products.

• Analysis
• Endurance
• On-board measurement equipment
