On June 1 of this year, members of the Erasmus+ project consortium “MechaUz – modernization of mechatronics and robotics for higher education institutions in Uzbekistan through innovative ideas and digital technologies” visited the Vilnius Baldai furniture production plant.

The purpose of the visit was to get acquainted with the production processes of the university. The consortium members were presented with a full production cycle, starting from the process of feeding raw materials to the packaging of final products. The guests of the plant noted the high level of automation of production. It was also found that the plant has very close scientific and practical ties with the Vilnius Gediminas Technical University.

At the end of the meeting, the guests had a very informative conversation with the plant’s employees about the importance and necessity of introducing new technologies for teaching mechatronics and robotics in higher educational institutions.
