HD Slippers

HD Slippers - seals

Since 1982 HD Slippers S.r.l. designs and produces sealing systems, meeting a large range of industrial fields.HD Slippers - seal simulation

We have been involved in the development of a methodology to automatically calculate the oiltightness of seals.

CAD SolidWorks and the integrated finite element system COSMOSWorks were used to develop this methodology. Starting from the material's viscoelastic characteristic and the geometry of the undeformed seal, it was possible to simulate its compression when inserted in its seat. The evaluation of compression tensions caused, especially the pressures between the lip and the seat, made it possible to verify the correspondence between the seal and the use specifics.
