CLIOwin 7.03 QC,
LOUDSOFT's FINEBox, FINEMotor 2.1.2, especially FINECone 2.0 (Finite Element) & FINEX
FEMM 4.0

Successful projects

Ultra low distortion study - but I can't tell you details
New driver - magnet reduce 50% but sensitivity increased 1dB - but I can't tell you details
Klippel Expansion Box - but I can't tell you details
CLIOwin QC on production end of line 100% checking, storing, auto post process statistics

Earn the value to attend (Christmas 2007) ~~Received~~ (May 2007) two days intensive official training at Dresden, Germany, Klippel HQ on 8th & 9th May 2006 - by working very hard and learning from zero by myself and ultimately be the trainer and implementer of all Klippel's capability and new method as well as inner understandings.
