Mechatronics | Mechanical Engineering internship: modal …, Veldhoven

Introduction The mechatronics department for the Projection Optics Box (POB) in ASML’s EUV systems develops ultra-stable structures and actuation solutions for mirror alignment. You will contribute to improving system stability by detecting unintended mechanical shortcuts between structural frames. These shortcuts can reduce performance and are difficult to localize with visual inspection alone. In this internship: you will help turn measurement data into actionable insight. Your work supports high-precision performance in EUV manufacturing.

Your assignment In complex mechanical systems, hidden connections between frames can disturb dynamic behavior and reduce positioning accuracy. In this internship you will investigate how changes in dynamic behavior reveal the presence and location of these shortcuts. Your main responsibilities will be:

Analyze measurement data to detect changes in system dynamics

Perform modal fitting on frequency response data

Compare results with reference data from nominal conditions

Identify patterns in mode shape variations linked to structural shortcuts

Develop software tooling for data analysis and visualization

Validate findings with engineering insights and simulations

Present results and recommendations to the team

This is a master non-thesis internship for minimum 4 months and maximum 6 months, for 5 days per week (2 days on-site). The start date of this internship is as of September 2026.

Your profile To be suitable for the internship, you:

Are pursuing a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, mechatronics or a related field

Have experience with system identification and dynamic modeling

Have practical experience using MATLAB or similar tools

Show analytical thinking and a structured working approach

Are collaborative and can also work independently
