All projects

1. Airflow within a Computer >

Investigating CPU temperature in an industrial computer

2. Antenna Structure for Space exploration >

Transport strength and Eigenfrequency calculations of delicate high-tech Antenna cartridge, for studying the chemical composition of the cosmos.

3. Assessment process equipment >

Femto Engineering often performs strength and stiffness assessments for a company which is active in the process industry. In some cases the limits of process conditions are determined, in other cases a judgement of the construction is demanded. However h

4. Cold forging >

Towing brackets are manufactured by using a cold-forging process. This production process introduced residual stresses, which can lead to an early failure of the product (fatigue). One method to reduce these residual stresses is heat treatment of

5. Collapse of a tower crane >

The tower crane collapsed during the positioning of a heavy balcony of the new Parktoren.

6. Deformation of a rubber box >

In a newly developed power supply box to be used in building a stiffness problem occurred. Leaving the door open -especially in the sun-, made the box very vulnerable for permanent deformation caused by creep.

7. Examination of train interior systems >

For Driessen Aerospace Systems BV, the strength and fatigue life of a Disabled Toilet Module (DTM) and a Mini Buffet Unit (MBU) of high speed railway trains are assessed. With the use of Femap in combination with Nastran, bolt forces, stre

8. Failure analysis of production device >

Shortly after a new manufacturing machine for optical disk printing was put into use, the machine’s rotary arm failed. The cause: fatigue. The pressures placed on the arm during the printing process exceeded the fatigue strength. Femto was asked to anal

9. Gas diffusion tool for car tires >

Femto developed a tool for an easy & quick prediction of the pressure retention within car tires, the so-called IPR prediction.

10. Lemniscate crane >

Stress & buckling assessments have been performed for a new lemniscate crane engineered by a company for special cranes.
