When designing innovations and optimisations, you often find yourself in uncharted territory. A proof of concept can help to avoid pitfalls and rule out risks.
A proof of concept is a virtual calculation and analysis or a physical model of the concept. As a product owner, it can help you to identify potential problems and eliminate them early on. These could be technical problems, or perhaps logistics or operating issues.
A proof of concept has other benefits. You can ask employees and other parties for feedback on design decisions. A successful proof of concept can help to convince stakeholders and investors to back the idea. It also allows you to prove that the concept satisfies the legal stipulations and regulations.
A proof of concept helps you to avoid risks such as:
Our engineers in the Engineering & Analysis department carry out complex calculations and analyses every single day. Their calculations and analyses are used to determine the strength and stiffness of materials and structures, natural frequencies and responses to vibrations, weather influences, and changes to materials. Other studies may look at flow patterns, pressure drops, and heat transfer.
VIRO’s Engineering & Analysis department often works in 3D to ensure the highest level of calculation accuracy and reliability. 3D designs can be converted to Virtual Reality, turning the product or part into an almost tangible reality and allowing you to evaluate its operation and functionalities life-like. It’s the ultimate test of whether the concept meets your expectations.
A number of VIRO’s market groups also offer a proof of concept in the form of a physical model. This might be a prototype or a Minimum Viable Product (MVP).
In certain cases, the physical proof of concept is provided by the Heavy-Duty Vehicles division in Echt or the Special Tooling division in Hengelo.
