industry focuses on field trips to increase interest in engineering. New Technology has complied with children and parents in the Scania factory in Södertälje.
– Seeing the robots I’ve been looking forward all the time, says Benjamin Roxberger, 10 years.
Along with classmate Joel Ekeberg visiting Benjamin Roxberger Scania in Södertälje a Friday in May, instead of sitting in the school bench in Edboskolan in Huddinge.
Through the initiative” The industry takes the game “involved some 15 children and their parents. The goal is to showcase Swedish industrial target urbanites aged 30-45 years with children of their own.
Scania transmission plant, participants follow production line from casting to finished shaft in the gearbox. Industrial robots lathes and mills alternately. The orange robots looks much like the two boys had imagined. They also think it’s pretty clean, and that there are enough people in the factory.
– Robots work faster, but can not teach themselves, says Benjamin Roxberger.
He also has a clear idea of why Scania uses robots.
– They work without pay and will never retire. People do not work as much.
Benjamin and Joel is interested in technology and likes math. But Joel’s favorite subject in school is handicraft. He wants to be an inventor when he grows up.
– You can come up with new things and make lots of money. But I have enough invent in my spare time and have a regular job first.
– The most fun is to conceive and build a solution. The drawing is saved in the head.
to get yourself controlling a robotic arm with a joystick along an obstacle course was one of the highlights of Scania. Best of all was offroad skiing in the world’s strongest truck. Benjamin Roxberger think it was a learning day.
– Without reconnaissance no idea who our teacher Elisabeth Wallin usually says, he says .
