Products & Solutions
Furmtech provides flexible engineering education platforms, laboratory systems, and software tools designed to support modern teaching environments.
Our solutions combine practical equipment, industrial control technology, and integrated software to create hands-on learning systems that reflect real-world engineering practice.
By bringing together physical processes, instrumentation, and control, Furmtech enables students to move beyond theory and develop practical skills in experimentation, system behaviour, and data-driven decision making.
Example Learning Applications
Furmtech platforms support a wide range of engineering subjects and teaching areas, including:
- Fluid mechanics and pump systems
- Process unit operations
- Process control and PID tuning
- Instrumentation and measurements
- Data analysis and engineering experimentation
These applications can be adapted to suit different course structures, learning objectives, and levels of complexity.
Furmtech’s flexible approach allows institutions to tailor systems to their curriculum requirements while maintaining a consistent and scalable platform.
FlexBench — Modular Engineering Learning Platform
The Furmtech FlexBench is a modular engineering platform designed to support multiple experiments and learning outcomes using a single integrated system.
By combining physical equipment with industrial control systems and modern software, FlexBench enables students to interact with real processes in a controlled and educational environment.
Students can observe system behaviour, apply control strategies, and analyse process data, developing practical skills that directly relate to industry applications.
Example Experiments and Capabilities
FlexBench supports a range of practical experiments and learning activities, including:
- Pump performance testing and system curve analysis
- Pumps operating in series and parallel configurations
- Flow and pressure measurement and system behaviour
- Valve behaviour and system response
- PID control and controller tuning
- Dynamic system response and transient behaviour
These experiments allow students to explore both steady-state and dynamic systems, reinforcing theoretical concepts through hands-on experience.
Key features include:
- Modular hardware configurations supporting multiple experiments
- Industrial control systems using PLC-based architecture
- Integrated data acquisition, visualisation, and control software
- Expandable platform for future experiments and teaching modules
- Designed for durability, safety, and long-term institutional use
FlexBench supports teaching across areas such as fluid mechanics, process control, system dynamics, and unit operations, allowing institutions to maximise learning outcomes while optimising laboratory resources.
Master Software — Control, Data & Simulation Environment
The Furmtech Master Software provides an integrated environment for equipment control, data monitoring, and simulation-based learning.
The software can operate with physical laboratory equipment or as a standalone simulation platform, enabling flexible delivery of practical learning experiences.
Capabilities include:
- Real-time process monitoring and control
- Interactive graphical interfaces and system visualisation
- Data logging and trend analysis for teaching and experimentation
- Simulation mode for remote or preparatory learning
- Configurable experiments and teaching scenarios
This approach allows students to explore engineering concepts both with real equipment and in simulated environments, supporting blended and modern learning approaches.
