DuroWorks is an autonomous Center of Excellence for advanced structural design and analysis, engineering and delivering superior designs ready for the final pre-production stage. We collaborate with engineering teams to develop lightweight, manufacturable, high-performance structural components by leveraging the full potential of specialized AI-assisted workflows, AI-driven Generative Design, Aerospace Technology, and advanced Structural Optimization.

THE CHALLENGE
The Problem with Traditional Structural Design

Traditional methods often produce structural parts constrained by legacy engineering and manufacturing limitations, resulting in components that are heavier and more expensive than necessary. Most material is underutilized, with only localized regions optimized to meet minimum safety margins. While this conservatism adds confidence, it also increases weight and cost. Improvements within typical workflows delay design cycles with inefficient iteration loops delivering only incremental benefits. DuroWorks offers a collaborative, external solution that applies specialized, AI-driven workflows, integrating domain expertise, simulation, and manufacturability insight to deliver superior, pre-production-ready designs.

OUR SOLUTION
AI-Centric Advanced Structural Design
Engineering Feasible Generative Designs with Real-World Impact

Innovative structures must be grounded in execution. DuroWorks delivers optimized CAD models ready for engineering validation, combining structural expertise, specialized AI workflows, and practical manufacturing constraints. We focus on delivering a single, superior design solution, not a gallery of theoretical options. Each part is engineered to exceed structural performance requirements while complying with manufacturability, cost, certification, and operational constraints.​

​We deliver optimized CAD models for parts that are:

​

  • Stronger & Lighter

    Eliminating unnecessary mass while exceeding performance targets.

​​​​​

  • Cost-Effective

    Tuning engineering effort, material use, and production complexity for optimal value.

​​​​

  • Designed for Manufacturing

    Specifically designed for CNC machining, casting, forging, injection molding, or additive methods, depending on your production needs.

​​​

  • Ready for Pre-Production

    Integrated into your engineering and manufacturing workflow and ready for validation.

OUR PROCESS
Advanced Structural Design as a Discipline
Integrating Engineering Expertise with AI Workflows

Starting with a no-risk evaluation, DuroWorks integrates AI tools within a decision-making framework built by experienced aerospace engineers with deep expertise in structures, loads, materials, and manufacturing. As a Center of Excellence for Advanced Structural Design, we provide authoritative design recommendations with quantifiable weight/cost benefits and manufacturable outputs.​

​

These are the steps we implement to get there:

​

  • Evaluation Phase 


We learn about your part design requirements, including function, load paths, design constraints, materials, manufacturing method, production volume, and cost targets.

​​​

  • Proposal 

    We deliver a brief, low-cost proposal outlining the expected opportunity and scope for improvement before the project begins.

​​​

  • AI-Assisted Design

    Upon approval, we generate the optimal design using specialized AI workflows and structural design tools, applying decades of real-world aerospace engineering experience.

​​

  • Collaborative Refinement

    We work closely with your team to validate and refine the design to meet all requirements and achieve readiness for prototyping and testing. 

​

  • Feasibility Review

    Together, we evaluate manufacturability, cost, and production challenges against performance improvements and other benefits. This step determines whether the design moves to pre-production or requires further iteration.
