Projects references

— Railway

DEVELOPING A CONFIGURATION TOOL FOR SIGNALLING SYSTEMS. We take care of the configuration tool for Railway Signalling Systems (interlocking systems) management, from track plan layout to complete hardware configuration and data application definition. Our team is entirely responsible for the software development V-cycle, from requirement analysis and data collection to the final delivery to the customer.

— Cooperative robots

REDUCING AUTOMOTIVE MANUFACTURING TIME. It is about defining the potential installation of cooperative robots in automotive production lines. In order to identify where and how cooperative robots can be placed, the development of this project involved analysing the business case as well as legislative and financial issues, identifying operations with potential for cost reduction and ergonomic enhancement.

— Aerospace

DEVELOPING ONE OF THE LIGHTEST COCKPIT WINDSHIELDS. The objective was to design a windshield, able to resist a high speed impact of an object during the flight and thus obtain the certificate of airworthiness for a helicopter. This typical aeronautics project incorporated the simulation of a bird’s collision with the helicopter windshield, in order to predict the structural responses and failure modes to the impact. The AKKA Italia team offered its expertise in simulation, structural design activities and bird strikes. Our solution is now up and running and met the client’s high expectations during the certification procedure. This new windshield is now one of the lightest in its category.
