ALUNATEC APEX
Engineering apps for plastic components, lighting systems and interior
ALUNATEC APEX is a suite of engineering apps for developing plastic components and assemblies: from lighting systems through interior and operating elements to housings and functional parts. Tolerance chains, wall thicknesses, snap-fit joints and optics are calculated and documented in a traceable way. The apps run in the browser, without installation.
Sales, licensing and billing through ANKORATEC GmbH. Developed and operated by ALUNATEC Ingenieurbüro.

Optics Tolerance Calculator
Create variation plans for optical tolerance simulations, evaluate simulation results and assess them against inspection-point limits.

Reflex
Is the design surface sufficient for the photometric requirement? Calculate and assess retroreflectors to the company standard in seconds and hand the triple axes over to CAD as STEP.

IN DEVELOPMENT
Adjustment System
Adjustment travel, light angles and travel paths of a headlamp adjustment system in seconds – spatially exact, including crosstalk, centre-of-gravity and USA/Canada checks.

Housing Configurator
Minimum width of the adhesive bed in seconds – by fixed rules from the lens size, with checks of depth, clearance, wall thickness, slope, joining angles and radii.
Register interest →IN DEVELOPMENT
Lens Configurator
Lens foot and adhesive bed checked in seconds – eleven parameters, tool directions and affinity against proven limits, plus a standards comparison.
Register interest →IN DEVELOPMENT
GlueChannel
Housing adhesive bed and lens foot along the guide curve from the project – calculated station by station, automatically re-checked when the design changes.

IN DEVELOPMENT
SnapFit
Snap-fit joints made of thermoplastics to the company standard – checked in one step: strain, forces, undercut by tolerance, self-locking.
Register interest →IN DEVELOPMENT
WallThickness
Wall thickness from flow length, injection time, holding pressure and cooling time – for 28 materials from a table, as a specification for design and filling simulation.
