On 23-24 May, the "ITTS Volterra" Institute hosted the National Industrial Automation Competition. An event that brings together the excellence of Italian technical institutes that train young students in the industrial automation sector. We at Lafert supported the event and organized a visit to our production plant and the brand new showroom for students and teachers.

Every year, the competition is a significant opportunity to encourage discussion and comparison on the technical preparation of the boys. It is also an opportunity for dialogue between teachers to develop and innovate the educational offer and path of these institutes aimed at training students for the world of work. At Lafert we always open the doors of our company to welcome students and facilitate the integration of young people into the world of work.

After the 2023 edition, won by a student of the Volterra Institute, the Ministry of Education has designated the "Vito Volterra" State Technical Technological Institute as the organizer of the National Competition for students of Industrial Technical Institutes throughout Italy with focus on Electronics and Electrotechnics, Automation, 2024 edition.

Company visit to Lafert
The aim of the competition is to improve the school's ability to train young people for the new needs of the world of work. We at Lafert want to be an active part of the professional growth of young people, which is why we have built a collaboration with local institutes over the years.

On this occasion, in addition to providing a gearmotor produced in our plants useful to the students for the realization of the candidate project in the competition, we had the pleasure of hosting in our headquarters in San Donà di Piave, the 9 students participating in the competition and the 18 teachers from various technical institutes on the national territory.

Thanks to the teamwork of the various Lafert departments, students and teachers participated in the factory tour that showed them how and where the quality of Lafert motors is born, and then they went deeply into the core business of the company and the brand: latest generation electric motors and integrated packages with very high efficiency and ultra-performance. Finally, by visiting the brand new virtual showroom, they saw how important it is for a company oriented towards the future, technological development and environmental, social and business sustainability, to invest in innovative tools capable of representing with modernity the brand's values, corporate themes and reference markets.
