The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE-A) Australasia and ABB Australia have launched the 2nd Annual National Robotics Innovation Competition.
The competition was developed to enhance interaction between students and automotive and industrial employers nationally.
The objective is for university students, in conjunction with industry partners, to develop a project proposal for an innovative and cost effective way to manufacture an existing component or improve a manufacturing process through the use of Robot-based automation.
Student individuals or groups should produce a complete solution for the process, complete with the consideration of safety, environmental, financial, and quality elements.
Entry into the competition also allows students to attend free industry-run seminars on important everyday business areas such as presentation skills, OH&S, finance and compliance. Prizes will also be awarded to the winning group and/or individual.
