Wear Analysis

At CADDS Group, our Impact Wear Analysis and Discrete Element Modelling (DEM) help diagnose and optimise material flow, wear patterns, and impact loads across critical production infrastructure. Since 2015, we’ve completed over 3,000+ analysis projects, drawing on the expertise of our experienced engineering and 3D geospatial teams who operate both onsite and offsite to extend asset lifespan and provide recommendations for redesign and performance improvement.

We apply this capability across Port and Mining process plant material transfer points, From large scale crushing and sizing equipment, to conveyor chute systems and impact plates. By using DEM, Impact Wear, and FEA analysis, we simulate real-world behaviour, revealing the causes of wear, blockages, and stress concentrations—before they become costly issues.
