Lunch lecture Mieloo & Alexander
On Thursday March 29th Mieloo & Alexander held a lunch lecture in association with Dispuut Transportkunde Pandora. The guest speaker was no other than Joseph Owusu, one of the founders of Mieloo & Alexander. Mieloo & Alexander is specialized in designing, planning and implementing technology solutions and aiming to transform companies to achieve operational excellence. During this very informative session, Mister Owusu showed the wide range of projects his company is involved in around Europe. He also showed the wide range of impressive companies Mieloo & Alexander is doing business with. Many of the projects involved AutoID, such as RFID technology, which could be used by clients to gain useful insights about their products. Using passive RFID chips Mieloo & Alexander were able to help Sony set up a system in warehouses in Germany with which prove of shipment for their products could be given, thus eliminating false claims of non-delivery. Another project involved active RFID technology with which the position of cars could be monitored at all times in a car storage area for import. So when a specific car needed to be moved to a customer, the position of this vehicle could be narrowly pinpointed from a huge car parking area. All in all it was a very informative and inspiring lunch lecture, which also functioned as an introduction to the company for the upcoming excursion with Mieloo & Alexander. For this excursion there was a maximum appliance of 15 persons. This limit was reached within 2 hours.
Lunchlecture TBA
Lunchlezing TBA On Monday 5th of march 2018 Zack and Kaj from TBA visited the Faculty of 3me at TU Delft. To give a presentation on TBA and what projects they both work on during their time at the company. At first, they started talking about TBA in general and giving examples on what type of project they work on. TBA is mostly working on simulations to solve problems and find them before a Container terminal is build. It was very impressive to see how they find problems and the way it was solved. Also, the structure of the project was interested to see. From the start of a simple simulation to a full working terminal was a good example of TBA. After the lecture it was mentioned that if you are looking for a graduation project with an interest on simulations? Send an email to TBA because there are still looking for students
ESI eurosilo lunchlezing
It was the first presentation of the year organised by the new board of Dispuut Transportkunde Pandora. Richard (one of the owners) came over from Purmerend to give a presentation about one of their installed storage systems in Lünen, Germany, which we will visit in about a week for the Germany trip!
Lunch lecture Royal Haskoning DHV
Tuesday the 23rd of May Sander van den Brand will give a lunch lecture on behalf of Royal Haskoning. Royal HaskoningDHV is an independent engineering and project management consultancy with over 130 years of experience. Backed by expertise of nearly 7,000 employees across the world, we work for public and private clients in more than 130 countries. Our expertise centre “Resources Logistics” in Rotterdam has a long heritage in the handling and storage of dry bulk materials. Sander is a TU Delft and more specifically TEL alumnus and he will tell us about one of his first projects at Royal Haskoning in which he set up a coal export logistics chain in Indonesia. This project is complex due to its aim to accomplish a throughput of 12 million tons per year, from 9 different mines using different modalities and in a harsh environment. During this presentation, he will show us the challenges they have faced and the results they achieved! We are looking forward it to and hope to see you there, as per usual the lunch is free. Also the lecture will be given in english. Location: Lecture hall E
Lunch lecture TBA
On the 16 of February TBA will visit the TU Delft for a lunch lecture. The goal of TBA is to improve the productivity and efficiency of container terminals using tools like simulation. They are very successful in doing so, since their clients include all the major terminal operators in the world as well as many local ports! Since their expertise fits so well with our field of study, it should be a very exciting lecture for all TEL students. Lunch will be provided, but supply is of course limited.
