Lightweight construction & structural development
“The bone is 5 times stiffer than steel at a fraction of the weight. Nature has perfected lightweight construction.”
Methodical role model
WHAT WE DO
Less material, maximum performance
We develop structures that combine the best of two worlds: the efficiency principles of nature and the precision of modern engineering methods. With topology optimisation, FEM analyses and bionically inspired design principles, components and systems are created that are lighter, more rigid and more resilient. Without compromising on function.

Lightweight construction & structural development
We develop structures that combine the best of two worlds: the efficiency principles of nature and the precision of modern engineering methods. With topology optimisation, FEM analyses and bionically inspired design principles, components and systems are created that are lighter, more rigid and more resilient. Without compromising on function.
Topology optimisation
Efficient material and force flow design based on mathematical optimisation methods. We calculate the ideal material distribution for maximum stiffness with minimum weight.
Bionic load-bearing & load structures
Development of structures modelled on natural structures such as bones, shells and plants. Nature has been optimising for millions of years, we transfer these principles into technical components.
Material minimisation
Reduction of material use while maximising structural performance. Less material means less weight, less costs and a better carbon footprint.
Design optimisation
Optimisation of existing components in terms of weight, stiffness and load capacity. We analyse existing constructions and develop targeted improvements without impairing the function.
Natural Structural Principles
Derivation of biological form principles and their transfer into technical applications. From the honeycomb structure to the tree trunk, nature provides proven role models for light and resilient structures.
Lightweight integration
Integration of lightweight construction concepts into existing components, systems and overall constructions. We accompany the entire process from conception to the validated functional prototype.
WHAT MAKES US AME
Engineering precision meets natural intelligence
Demonstrably lighter
Our optimisation approaches reduce component weights systematically, without compromising on stiffness or safety.
Interdisciplinary thought
We combine bionics, simulation and design in an integrated development process from concept to prototype.
Applied-oriented developed
Each solution is tailored to your specific load and manufacturing situation for maximum practicality.
