“UPBAir team sets goals for future innovative projects in Industry 4.0”

  Today, February 27, 2025, part of our Pneumatics team from the Smart Pneumatics Lab (SPL) within the Department of Robotics and Production Systems held one of our first administrative meetings. The goal was to establish our objectives, define the team’s evolutionary path, and prepare ourselves for upcoming projects.

  Under the careful guidance of our mentor, Professor Mihai Ghinea, director of the SPL laboratory, and our team coordinator, Cosmin Baltag, a first-year Robotics student with a deep passion and skill for engineering, we aim to successfully complete numerous large-scale projects.

  Some of the first projects we are working on include the rehabilitation and improvement of one of our pneumatic machines. This will allow us to participate in competitions specific to this field and showcase our work at various events within the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest. Another key project involves gaining in-depth knowledge of all the pneumatic equipment available to us and using it for academic purposes.

  The meeting was attended by Cosmin Baltag, the Pneumatics team coordinator, and David Vieru, a first-year student at the Faculty of Mechatronics and Robotics. David is also an active team member, eager to learn what we call “one of the solutions of the future.”
