In reviewing competitive market data for 2021, we drew from two independent sources.
The second independent source of data that we used to augment the peer proxy analysis was the
Consultantʼs analysis of competitive market data relating to other applicable general industries.
The CEO makes his recommendations in conjunction with the marketplace
data.

Through both fully accredited testing and in-
house testing capabilities, our team uses state-of-
the-art equipment and software to generate data
for insight into material behavior, environmental
effects, and more.
Material Data Sets
• A number of material characterization data sets
are available in .udb, moldex 3D, xChange data
cards, and SIPOE format
Mold Filling Simulation (see examples below)
• Serves to validate part design (e.g., gate location,
fill/pack/warp/cool) & material solution
• Evaluates component design viability with
preferred Avient material solution
• Fiber analysis determines fiber orientation
and length
• Predicts part quality and manufacturability
(shrink, warp, weld line location)
FILLING PART QUALITYFIBER ORIENTATION
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
• Virtually simulates how an application will perform in real-world conditions with a high
level of precision
• Able to represent a variety of problems, test methods, models and outputs to evaluate the design,
process and material combination for validation or optimization
• Dynamic

Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) Support
By leveraging mold filling simulation,
multiphysics simulation, and the understanding
of the link between design, process and material,
we can help inform your decision-making
process for product development.

Working with Avient, Gordon and Jeff developed
the patent-pending FlexSpring™ insole using a tri-ply
unidirectional fiberglass laminate, combined with
neoprene foam sheet material, and die-cut to shape.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2021-04/bergamid-seat-fastener-case-study.pdf
First, sheet metal
restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs
request different attachment configurations for the part, so it
becomes extremely time-consuming to design and fabricate
multiple variations in metal.
