On Friday, May 13th, the students of ITS Maker attended one of the lessons of their study plan in Mechatronics at Walvoil Test Department in Reggio Emilia – Italy. An activity finally in presence again.
After a first joint moment dedicated to the product validation tests and related measurements (in hydraulics, but not only), including a "guided tour" of the Laboratory, the first year students were subsequently divided into 8 small groups for some of the experimental activities in rotation, suitably set up for educational purposes, with the technicians of both Walvoil Test Department and the Metrology Office.
Interesting that 4 of the 8 stations were introduced by former students of ITS, graduated in the past years, in an ideal continuity of the educational growth path between institutions and companies.
Activity tutor in Walvoil: Cesare Dolcin, Test Department Manager
Walvoil is one of the founder companies of the ITS Maker foundation.
