Hydraulic quick-release coupling

Task / Calculation
- Development of a quick-release coupling for a loading arm
- Extremly short time line (no time for prototypes and tests)
- Complete new develeopment, no forerunner variants
- Completely virtual product development
- High pressure and large diameter
- Breakaway charcteristics
- Compliance with regulations and standards (OCIMF) and acceptance by BV (Bureau Veritas)
Target / Profit
- General dimensioning
- Optimization in different simulation
- Design of the finished coupling
Results
- Successful test runs at first go
