Tyumen students won four medals in the final of the CASE-IN championship

The main season of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship has ended in Moscow. The most massive league was attended by 5,800 students from Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus. 110 teams reached the final. The participants had to develop engineering solutions to implement the principles of lean manufacturing in industry.

Tyumen Industrial University was represented by students from the Institute of Industrial Technology and Engineering and the EG Graduate School of Engineering. The guys showed excellent results and won prizes in four directions. 

The absolute winners in the Mining Machinery and Equipment category were the members of the Invertum team Vladislav Tolokov, Dmitry Belov, Andrey Bursov and Nikita Yehlakov. The students had to solve a case study on eliminating losses during routine stationary inspections of an excavator at the Yubileyny quarry, where diamonds are mined. The guys did an excellent job with the task and offered an effective technical solution.

"Our solution focused on digitalization, while taking into account the tools of lean manufacturing and Industry 4.0. We also introduced a comprehensive optimization of excavator maintenance. A special feature was the introduction of an unmanned aerial vehicle based on domestic software in combination with AR technologies., – He tells me Dmitry Belov. – I think that our past experience of participation, team spirit, as well as competent study, original presentation of task solutions and our own developed presentation design helped us to win the championship. I am sure this victory will open up many opportunities for us in our future careers." 

According to Alrosa, the Invertum team was also recognized as the winner in the following nominations: "Breakthrough Solution", "Reliable Mentor", "Best Video Visionary".

In the direction of "Petrochemistry" the second place was taken by the "Supercharged" team, consisting of: Alena Shcheveleva, Anastasia Kuzina, Maxim Omelchenko, Valeria Burdakovskaya.

In the areas of "Project Engineering" and "Oil and Gas business", the bronze medalists were the neSTORE teams (Anna Pisareva, Dmitry Pisarev, Sergey Mitrokhin, Maxim Osipov) and the "Sinners" (Maria Sivkova, Evgeny Osintsev, Nikita Kalachev).

Winners and prize-winners will be able to enroll in master's and postgraduate studies at 30 partner universities on preferential terms, as well as complete paid internships in leading companies with the possibility of further employment.
