Modugno, Puglia, Italia

During my internship and experimental thesis at Anty SRL, a metalworking company, I had the opportunity to conduct a finite element analysis of a prototype machine developed by the company. Using Solidworks by Dassault Systèmes, I performed a detailed analysis of the machine's structural integrity and identified potential areas for improvement. Throughout the project, I worked closely with company figures and a university tutor, gaining valuable insights into the metalworking industry and the engineering design process. The project required strong time management skills and the ability to balance multiple priorities, as I managed work schedules and ensured that the study was consistent with the requests received. Through this experience, I gained hands-on experience in FEM analysis and prototype development, and developed a strong foundation in project management and technical communication.
