Competition and Project Information
The team of “Valahia” University from Târgoviște, coordinated by Assoc. Dr. Eng. Otilia Elena Dragomir, teacher and vice-dean of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Information Technology, participated in the international competition “Xplore 2023 Technology Award for a sustainable world”, organized by Phoenix Contact Germany, under the patronage of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, that promote sustainability through the projects they finance.
Participation in this competition was a natural continuation of the fact that, starting from the academic year 2019-2020, within the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Information Technology – Department of Automation, Informatics and Electrical Engineering, the academic program Phoenix Contact – EduNet operates.
The International Education Network (EduNet) was established in 2007, at the initiative of the Phoenix Contact company, Blomberg, Germany, with the aim of supporting technical universities with hardware and software equipment, necessary for the development of applications for data acquisition, monitoring and management of industrial processes.
The theme of the research-development-innovation project, proposed within the “Smart Industry” section, consists in the implementation on a flexible manufacturing line of an additional disassembly station, for the recovery of parts.
The project was selected for funding, and the Valahia University Team will implement the initiative over the course of a year.
