About Fectum Engineering
Fectum Engineering GmbH is an engineering service provider based in Graz (Austria) that supports customers in mechanical engineering and the automotive industry along the entire product creation process – from the idea through the concept and design phase to series development and series production support. The service portfolio covers concept and series development, 3D design with CAD systems such as Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD, Catia V5, SolidWorks and Siemens NX, strength and stiffness calculations, tolerance management including tolerance stack-up analysis, project management, resident engineering, FMEA, prototype and functional sample construction as well as plant planning and special machine construction. In mechanical and plant engineering, special machines, container technology, stage and conveyor technology, power plant components such as silos, and jigs and fixtures are created, among other things. In vehicle engineering, the focus is on vehicle interior and complete vehicle; customers are premium OEMs from German-speaking countries as well as international Tier1/system suppliers. Project locations are in Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom and Brazil. According to its own statements, the company has around 35 years of engineering experience.
