FESTO MOBILE MECHATRONICS LABORATORY



Recently, North Montco Technical Career Center hosted a visit by the Festo Mobile Mechatronics Laboratory. This Mobile Mechatronics Laboratory is an 80-foot self contained tractor-trailer. The purpose of the visit was to encourage students to increase their awareness of the high technologies used in today's manufacturing and encourage students to pursue careers in these vital industries. Students had the opportunity to tour this Mobile Mechatronics Laboratory and explore the various pneumatic and electromechanical displays.

Students in the Robotics & Automation (Mechatronics) program were particularly interested in touring this “laboratory.” The students had the opportunity to see various applications of the curriculum they are learning in their program.
Staffed with experts in the field of automation, the Festo Mobile Mechatronics Lab is part of a mission to educate companies and schools about energy efficient automation technology and services and the latest advancements that can improve equipment and operational performance.
