PURPLAN donates dosing system for laboratory at Hochschule Osnabrück, University of Applied Sciences

Study for practice: Students who complete a technical course of study at Hochschule Osnabrück, University of Applied Sciences acquire not only theory in lectures but also practical know-how in numerous laboratory internships. This is why modern laboratory equipment is important in the training of future engineers. Purplan has made an essential contribution to this: As a long-standing cooperation partner of the Hochschule Osnabrück, University of Applied Sciences, we provide the Laboratory for Control Technology with an industrial-scale dosing system worth around 20,000 euros for laboratory internships.

In the control technology laboratory at Hochschule Osnabrück, University of Applied Sciences, the team headed by Prof. Dr. Siegmar Lampe deals with the automation of technical processes. In internships and projects, the students deepen their theoretical knowledge of modelling and simulation, control engineering and instrumentation by working independently on practical problems. Prof. Lampe and the scientific assistant Bernhard Neugebauer, as well as their colleagues from the Laboratory of Process Engineering, have been working with Purplan for many years - examples of the cooperation are internships, theses and transfer projects, but also scholarships for excellent students.

An industrial conveyor system is now to be built in the control technology laboratory. "We want to set up an interdisciplinary experiment covering the areas of control, regulation, process engineering and information technology. We want to focus in particular on industry 4.0 topics," reports Prof. Lampe. "This will enable students from different courses of study to experience live and in colour the interplay of different technical disciplines that awaits them later in their professional lives," says Lampe. Purplan's donation is a "gigantic help".
