Investing in the Future of Automation: Alfa Test Summer Practice for Robotics Students

At Alfa Test, we believe that the future of automation lies in the hands of the next generation of engineers. This summer, we had the privilege of hosting talented students from Politehnica University Timisoara as part of the Robostep – Robotics Internships at UPT.

Hands-On Experience with Cutting-Edge Automation Technologies

During their internship, students had the opportunity to work directly with advanced automation solutions at our new Alfa Test facility. They explored the full potential of:

  • Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR AMRs) – autonomous mobile robots that enable smart intralogistics and optimize material flow.
  • Universal Robots (UR cobots) – collaborative robots designed to improve flexibility, efficiency, and precision in industrial environments.
  • Teradyne Robotics solutions – technologies that bring together innovation and scalability for modern manufacturing.

Through hands-on projects, they gained practical experience in robotics, automation, and testing systems, helping them bridge the gap between theory and real-world applications.

Building Skills for Tomorrow’s Engineers

The Robostep program is more than just an internship – it is a structured learning journey designed to equip students with the skills required in today’s industry:

  • Practical training in automation and robotics.
  • Cross-disciplinary knowledge combining engineering, software, and industrial applications.
  • Exposure to the latest innovations in industrial automation, testing, and inspection.

By working closely with Alfa Test engineers, students developed both technical expertise and teamwork skills, essential for building a successful career in the automation field.

Alfa Test’s Commitment to Innovation and Education

At Alfa Test, our mission extends beyond delivering turnkey solutions for inspection, testing, and automation. We are also dedicated to nurturing future talent by providing a supportive learning environment where students can experiment, innovate, and grow.
