Innovation That Improves the Urban Infrastructure
Overview Fundicion Ductil Fabregas, S.A. has been involved in the manufacture of cast sewage covers and grates since 1917. The company's challenge was to modernize design and manufacturing processes to better compete against large multinational operations that meet challenges of reducing product weight while adhering to strict governmental standards and move from known practices of sand casting to plastic injection molding. Femap is helping Fabregas meet the strict requirements for sewer covers. The company must periodically run tests on the covers to be able to certify their performance. Now, using Femap to perform resistance calculations, the company can optimize designs for greater resistance and lower costs, ensuring that the covers comply with all standards, while achieving product launch times that would have been inconceivable in the past.
