eCon Engineering Ltd.

With over 100 employees, Econ Engineering (offices: HUN, GER, USA) provides Engineering Simulation (CAE) and Industrial Automation solutions with extensive industry experience in Automotive, Aerospace, Space, Composites, Defense, Healthcare, Energy, and Agriculture. CAE services cover all aspects of virtual development: simulation, modeling, testing, optimization, and consulting. In addition to complex simulation solutions, it distributes various simulation software and provides training. Its Industrial Automation team designs, manufactures, and supplies customized equipment and machines.

Relevance to the space industry

Econ holds certificates in AS9100, ISO9001, ISO27001, TISAX Level 3, and GE IT-Security and is a certified partner of simulation software houses like Ansys, Moldex3D, and CFturbo. Axiom Space, a NASA supplier, has selected Econ for several finite element tasks in the development of new space station modules for the ISS: multi-objective structural topology optimization, mass minimization, lifetime maximization for a service module, and also a composite closeout panel feasibility study and a lightweight composite redesign of the metal parts of a docking adaptor tunnel were carried out.
