At ATB Automation we have a great passion for engineering, teamwork and sustainable initiatives. That is why we like to contribute to projects with a sustainable or educational character. We call that engineering for the future.
These disciplines come together in the Formula Student Team Delft project. They participate in The Formula Student competition. This is the largest engineering competition in the world. The Dutch team designs, develops and builds an electric racing car in 8 months to participate in the race.
This is not just about racing, but also about cooperation and sustainability. It encourages the most talented students of Delft University of Technology to further develop in the field of engineering and offers the opportunity to put technical theory into practice. The team consists of 92 members and 26 nationalities.
ATB Automation sponsors the TU Delft team by supplying Rotar and Jakob couplings, which are used in the steering column and the car's autonomous steering system. These components have been carefully selected by the engineering team at TU Delft and the specialists at ATB Automation.
