The award ceremony named after the founders of the Electro Adda company took place at the Badoni Institute
“I chose this project because of the versatility and usefulness that a system of this type can have”
LECCO – AtBadoni Institute The award ceremony named after the company’s founders took place last Saturday Electro AddaTwins Anthony And Louis shore, who in 1948 started their entrepreneurial adventure which has continued to this day. The initiative, aimed at students in the last classes of Badoni di Lecco, aims to reward projects in the various fields of study: Computer Science, Mechanics, Electrical Engineering evaluated according to objective criteria by a heterogeneous commission.
The award also intends to valorise the students of the institute who have demonstrated particular skills knowledgecompetence and innovative spirit in the implementation of a particular project area, developed and implemented during the year. Electro Adda promotes innovation, seeks to support young people and makes its contribution to future resources whose talent and passion will guide our tomorrow. The competition celebrates the founders of Electro Adda who put themselves to the test and whose example inspires current generations.
The occasion is also a reason for discussion between students and company representatives who offer an industrial reflection to what is studied at school. The project areas that competed for first prize this year were:
- Cableway project area, created by the students Gianluca Brini – Luca Galbiati – Enrico Viglienghi;
- Wind tunnel project area, built by students Mattia Mandelli – Mattia Zuccolo – Alex Castelli – Vincenzo Pagliuso – Jamil Takieddine – Alessandro Perucchini;
- 3D Scanner project area, created by the students Alessandro Bianchi – Nicolò Codara – Marco Sabadini.
The commission awarded the first prize toCable car project areacreated during the school year by the students of the 5th A Automation: Gianluca Brini, Luca Galbiati and Enrico Viglienghi.
Gianluca Brini, creator of the project and leader of the working group, talks about the choice of their project area: “The chosen project consists of the construction of a miniature cableway that allows the connection between three locations located on a mountain side, one in the valley , one upstream and one along the line, between the other two. This project was chosen because of the versatility and usefulness that a system of this type can have in an area such as that of Lecco, especially for solving the problems caused by inefficient public service lines in the most isolated towns. For the construction of the system, the construction of a to-and-fro type cableway was chosen. The choice to create a type of system in this category comes from the low hourly flow rate required to connect mountain villages and the high reliability of this type of system. Given the changeable nature of the mountain climate, it was preferred to choose a system that also offered excellent wind resistance; for this reason, the construction of a funifor-type system was considered which, thanks to the configuration of the ropes, arranged on the “sides of the cabin”, can resist gusts of wind up to 100 km/h”.
