NEW SCIENCE AND TECHNICAL CONFERENCE WORKSHOP

NEWS

In 2009 at our Works according to the assignment of the Technical Director Aleksander Yuliusovich Putnoki a question regarding further development of the subdivisions of the Works in the field of introducing newest technologies has been considered. Taking into account the ever-increasing interest of young specialists both from the design and technological subdivisions in the computer-aided design systems (CAD), the decision about the creation of a new CAD workshop was made. It will function within the framework of the annual youth scientific and technical conference.

The purpose of the new workshop will be aimed not only at determining the winners, but also at developing and solving general problems, at exchanging experience between the specialists of different subdivisions, as well as at the organization of mutual work, more effective use of technologies and software. On the whole it will be real scientific work.

There are all reasons to hope that the workshop will be especially popular among the young employees of the works.

Selection of the most interesting works has already started, including the selection of 3-D models and computing tasks both for the Works’ conference and for the reports at the international scientific conference at the National mining university and at the NKMZ conference.

Going beyond the framework of the Works, plans are being made to invite specialists from other companies to participate in our youth scientific and technical conference.

It should be mentioned that starting from the beginning of 2002, our specialists have repeatedly become laureates of the international competition SolidWorks AWARD in Moscow; they have also participated in scientific conferences, firstly as observers, and later as speakers. Their reports have been repeatedly marked by diplomas. The last of them was bestowed to the workers of Zaporizhstal JSC by the representatives of the SolidWorks Corporation’s (USA) Board of Directors in 2008 at the international scientific conference at the National mining university in Dnepropetrovsk for progress in the development of information technologies in the CAD system and for the presented complex of projects.

The gained experience of participation in such events shows that the main advantage of such competitions and conferences is interactive communication of the specialists from different enterprises and priceless exchange of experience. This communication was the source for the development of information technologies in general and acceleration of CAD introduction at enterprises in particular.

The main requirement for participation of papers in the competition is the obligatory fulfilment of the projects and calculations in CAD programs, licensed for usage at the works.

We await interesting solutions, projects and whatever can be done by means of different CAD application packages.

Andrey ZVEGINTSEV, Chief Mechanic, Chairman of CAD workshop.
