Exciting Collaboration

Posted On: 07/12/15

CRGS Technology students have begun a 6 month product development project with Fläkt Woods here in Colchester. Our students were treated to an in-depth industrial visit around the high tech works on Axial Way by our hosts and mentor Head of Engineering Doug Gower and Andrew Legerton. The project will take the students through a steep learning curve from a technical point of view; students needing to be conversant in 3D computer modelling, CFD and FEA analysis. Hands-on and ‘live’ product development of this kind is essential in enabling the UK’s future leaders of industry the chance to cut their teeth at an early stage. “I was very impressed with the level and detail of the questioning from our students during the project briefing. It should prove to be an exciting project for all involved”.
