Profile: Optima Design Associates Ltd. provides design and engineering services. Our engineering services include FEA analysis, mechanical engineering, prototyping, testing and drafting, and 2D to 3D conversion services. Finite element analysis can be an effective way to digitally prototype the designs, providing significant reduction in development time and cost. This type of analysis can be used in the design process to ensure that the product is fit for purpose, and to reduce the expense of costly prototypes. It can also be used to correlate physical data or improve failing designs.
