The Rubberatkins Research and Development team has a fully integrated conceptual design programme that includes internal material development, industry leading non-linear finite element analysis (FEA) and extreme physical part testing capability.
Rubberatkins prides itself in its ability to create elastomeric solutions in the oilfield’s most difficult environments. When you challenge the boundaries of what is possible you require innovative solutions. Our combination of youth and experience allows us to create and explore new ideas designed to suit your individual needs.
Rubberatkins uses FEA software to optimise the initial design stage and to troubleshoot any problems which arise. This helps to reduce development cycle times and prevents long drawn out projects.
We ensure maximum accuracy by performing in-house testing of the specific materials
With FEA we are able to:
Rubberatkins uses CAD software to create part and assembly models along with engineering drawings, enabling quick response and reduced lead times.
Testing a new product can be an expensive and time-consuming process. Having a failure while the product is in use is even worse. Rubberatkins tests products in-house in to prove their performance, to negate the need for further testing or to reduce the expense and risk of complete product testing.
Our testing includes:
