June 26, 2024, Cluj-Napoca – Emerson Romania
In Cluj-Napoca, Emerson operates one of the largest production facilities in Eastern Europe, producing pressure and temperature measurement and control systems for any type of industrial installation that works with liquid and gaseous fluids (methane gas, oil, etc.) and solid materials with flow properties (grains, various powders, etc.). The activities on June 26 were divided into: a visit to the production units and participation in an industrial measurement course and a workshop where the entire UPBAIR team conducted five laboratory works using the most modern equipment for measuring levels in industrial installations.
The members of the UPBAIR team who participated in the Emerson Travel and Learn tour are Niculescu I Alex-Cosmin, Rosca D Bogdan (second year, Robotics), Ifrim V. Robert-Matei, Ivan I.M. Codrin-Ștefan, and Barbosu C Dan-Alexandru (first year Robotics). The scientific research activities of these students are presented on the laboratory’s website www.smartpneumaticslab.eu.
It is noteworthy that the initiative to organize this tour started from a meeting between Mr. Mihai Ghinea, director of Smart Pneumatics Lab, and Mr. Sebastian Ferecuș, General Director of Emerson Romania, last year, during the organization of the Emerson Roadshow Truck event at UPB, when a truck specialized in presenting industrial equipment launched by Emerson in 2023 was hosted on the university premises on July 6-7, 2023.
