Thermal analysis of electronics devices, an introduction
Thermal analysis can be a great way to help understand the thermal performance of your design before paying for costly costly prototypes or production models of your products design. Through Thermal Analysis, we can simulate the heat output from the components inside your product, as well as how well these components will dissipate heat throughout your enclosure.
Mechanical engineering support (#FEA, #CFD) of medical device for Kinneir Dufort
Consumer Medical Electronics Device to promote Smoking Cessation
Neutronium - Paradrop VR
In 2018, Form Lab carried out a number of FEA studies for Neutronium, supplying Simworx & FrontGrid to help in bringing an exciting new immersive VR attraction into reality. Paradrop VR is a premium VR attraction that puts the user in the seat of a paraglider as they fly over the local city landscape.
CFD Analysis of Portable Rugedised Electronics Equipment for Kinneir Dufort
Form Lab provided Kinneir Dufort with our thermal analysis service to support the redesign of the Winklemann Raptor RXi device. We offered support by carrying out Computational Fluid Dynamics (#CFD) for the enclosure design, as there were concerns with the cooling for the high power electronics required for the device.
Design & Prototype of 60mhz LE Filter Finishing & Testing Equipment
In 2016, Form Lab worked with Saras Technology to aid in the design & prototype manufacture of low-cost 60mhz lumped element (LE) filter finishing & testing equipment. Our project brief was to develop & test two key mechanisms, a finishing tool for finishing the I/O pins of the Saras 60MHz filter, and a second tool that would allow for testing & tuning of the finished filter. The tools needed to be modular to allow the user to interchange modules depending on the current task, as well as allow scope for future design changes.
Burghley House Digital Restoration Project
Burghley House is a Historical Tudor Mansion built during the sixteenth century in Stamford, Lancashire.
Designing A Custom Electronics Enclosure For EECL
Form Lab worked with EECL (European Engineering & Consultancy) in the development of a new Oscilloscope Diagnostic Tool, with our role in the project being to develop the housing for the internal electronic components. Our brief was to create a sheet metal steel enclosure which was lightweight and looked sleek, while also being simple to manufacture.
