The bronze medal of the Autumn CASE-IN Cup was won by students from Tyumen

Students of Tyumen Industrial University passed the qualifying stages and took part in the final of the Autumn Cup of the X International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", which was held in Moscow.

The championship is one of the projects of the presidential platform "Russia – the land of opportunities". More than 720 teams from specialized universities of the country participated in the Student League. Only 24 teams reached the finals, including Polymers (Institute of Industrial Technology and Engineering) and OilStream (TIU branch in Surgut).

This year, the jubilee cup was held under the banner of Industry 4.0. Participants worked on cases compiled by CASE–IN partner companies related to the development of digitalization and the introduction of information technologies on production sites.

The students were assigned by ALROSA to develop solutions to optimize the operation of the Almazny mine based on Industry 4.0 technologies, which would increase the profitability of the organization.

According to the results of the competition, the 3rd place was taken by the team of TIU "Polymers" consisting of Victoria Velizhanina, Georgy Pronichev, Andrey Shabarchin and Anastasia Kuznetsova.

"We presented a case study to the expert jury of the championship, which involves the use of NFT technology, intelligent video surveillance and neural network processing algorithms. Thanks to modern technology, diamonds can be divided into categories: potential diamonds and technical diamonds. Each of the potential minerals is assigned an nft token, which records all stages of the life cycle: from extraction to sale, this is very important when considering the durability of the product for a future buyer. We also suggested using unmanned dump trucks and a gyroscopic tunneling combine. This machine allows you to extract diamonds without disturbing the crystal structure... Each of us has our own role in the team, so working together, we manage to achieve good results.", – says the captain of "Polymers" Georgy Pronichev.

The IPTI team has won the championship more than once. This is the first experience of participating in such a competition for students of the Surgut branch of TIU. However, the guys demonstrated good knowledge and received a laureate's diploma in the special nomination "For striving for victory."

"Industry 4.0 is one of the most relevant and promising areas of development. In the process of analyzing problems and finding possible solutions, we learned a lot about the technologies used today, got acquainted with the specifics of the work of the country's leading companies. We are very glad that we have managed to reach the international level." Kirill Sidorov, captain of OilStream, noted.

The winners and prize-winners of the championship will receive internships in companies with the possibility of further employment, privileges for admission to postgraduate and master's degrees in leading specialized universities. The laureates also received a unique opportunity to travel around Russia as part of the "More than a Journey" program.
