The wind tunnel
Fondmetal Technologies ‘ wind tunnel is the heart of the aerodynamic business: multiple tunnels designed for scale-model testing help teams and manufacturers understand and optimize airflow, improve stability, speed, and performance under simulated racing conditions. Born in the early 1990s out of a collaboration with aerodynamic engineer Jean-Claude Migeot, today the facilities include multiple test facilities covering different sizes and applications, from 50-60% models to dedicated non-motorsport testing.
The role in research and development
FondTech is not just a wind tunnel: it is a strategic partner for those seeking comprehensive aerodynamic development. In addition to tunnel testing, it offers model design, CFD simulations, component development, rapid prototyping, and technical support for complex programs. Its clients include world series racing teams and manufacturers, with services ranging from rental of tunnel time to full management of aerodynamic development programs.
