STÁŽE:

V rámci programu INSTITUT, který je určen vysokoškolským studentům se zájmem o přírodní vědy, nabízíme talentovaným studentům účastnit se vědeckých výzkumných stáží v našich laboratořích v Contipro v Dolní Dobrouči pod vedením zkušených výzkumníků. Na stáže je možné přihlašovat se kdykoli během roku zasláním životopisu a motivační dopisu. Dle odborného zájmu je studentovi vybrán vhodný výzkumný tým, kterého se stane součástí. Stáže jsou v délce minimálně 4 týdny. Termín domlouváme vždy individuálně. Nejvíce stážistů u nás najdete během léta, ale stáž je možné absolvovat kdykoli během celého roku, záleží, jak se domluvíme.

In Print4D, we are developing 6-axis robotic arm printers for 3D Concrete Printing and the whole technology system that comes with it and software. It involves many disciplines such as electrical and mechanical engineering, software development, robotics, material science, design and many others.

For the internship in Print 4D, we are looking for interns to help us during the printing process as we are testing new equipment (hardware) and new materials so the internship will be more focused on support during the printing process. The support will be preparing the printer, testing the prints, running the printer and producing the printed products. In addition to those basic tasks, depending on the major of the interns we can assign more specialized tasks to them for example if a mechanical engineering student is here, he/she can help us develop the printhead & nozzle. If there is an electrical engineering student is here, he/she can help us integrate some sensors into our printhead and printing process. For a material engineering student, we can let him/her help with concrete material development, same applies for software, robotics and other students. We have many exciting and practical tasks that could be interesting for the students. Do not hesitate to contact us by our website (https://www.print4d.xyz/contact) or by mail (lkurdi@print4d.xyz)
