The Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Valery Falkov, visited the Obukhovsky Plant Scientific Production Association (part of the Almaz-Antey Air Defense Concern), which has SPbPU as part of its structure. basic department "Robotic complexes for industrial and special purposes".
During the minister's visit, Dmitry Kotolevsky, a fourth-year undergraduate student at the Higher School of Automation and Robotics at the Institute of Metallurgical and Metallurgical Engineering at St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, presented a robotic system he developed for automating the magnetization process. The system is a Cartesian robot that uses machine vision systems and laser rangefinders to identify palletized magnets and determine their spatial orientation.
Implementing this automated solution in production will optimize the technological process and free up labor resources for other tasks, explained Dmitry Kotolevsky.
Valery Falkov emphasized the importance of university-industrial cooperation: "The most important thing is to bring manufacturers and businesses as close as possible to our universities. The Obukhov Plant is a unique team and a unique enterprise that does a great deal in education to achieve its goals."
The "Robotic Systems for Industrial and Special Purposes" department trains IMMiT students in the field of mechatronics and robotics. Some courses are taught on-site, allowing the students to gain insight into the company's scientific, research, and production activities.
