Hoʻohana nā haumāna i nā mea hana like ʻole i loko o ka Kremer Innovation Center e hana i nā prototypes papahana a me nā ʻāpana no nā hui hoʻokūkū.
ʻO kahi hoʻolālā ʻenekinia hou a me ka hale hoʻokolohua - ka Kremer Innovation Center - ke hāʻawi nei i nā manawa no nā haumāna Rose-Hulman e hoʻomaikaʻi i kā lākou mau ʻike hoʻonaʻauao lima lima.
ʻO nā lako hana, nā mea paʻi 3D, nā pūnana makani a me nā mea hana ana i ka nui i loaʻa i ka KIC hiki ke maʻalahi i nā haumāna e hana ana ma nā hui hoʻokūkū, nā papahana hoʻolālā capstone a me nā lumi papa hana ʻenekinia.
ʻO ka 13,800-square-foot Richard J. lāua ʻo Shirley J. Kremer Innovation Center i wehe ʻia i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka 2018-19 hoʻoilo kula haʻahaʻa a hoʻolaʻa ʻia ʻo ʻApelila 3. Ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia e hoʻohanohano i ka philanthropy o nā kāne i ka institute.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Richard Kremer, he alumnus ʻenekinia kemika i ka makahiki 1958, e hoʻomaka i ka FutureX Industries Inc., kahi hui hana ma Bloomingdale, Indiana, e loea i ka extrusion plastic maʻamau.Ua ulu ka ʻoihana i nā makahiki he 42 i hala iho nei e lilo i mea hoʻolako alakaʻi i nā lako pepa palaka no ka lawe ʻana, paʻi, a me nā ʻoihana hana.
Aia ma ka ʻaoʻao hikina o ka pā kula, e pili ana i ka Branam Innovation Center, ua hoʻonui a hoʻonui i nā manawa kūpono no ka hana hou a me ka hoʻokolohua.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Pelekikena Rose-Hulman ʻo Robert A. Coons, "Ke hāʻawi nei ka Kremer Innovation Center i kā mākou mau haumāna i nā mākau, ʻike a me ka noʻonoʻo e pāʻani i kahi kuleana nui i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā holomua e hiki mai ana e pono ai nā wahi āpau o ko mākou ola.ʻO Richard a me kāna kūleʻa ʻoihana he mau hiʻohiʻona maikaʻi loa ia o nā waiwai kumu o kēia kula ma ka hana;nā waiwai e hoʻomau mau nei i ka hāʻawi mau ʻana i kumu paʻa pōhaku no ka holomua o kēia manawa a me ka wā e hiki mai ana o Rose-Hulman a me kā mākou mau haumāna.
Hāʻawi ka KIC i nā lako a nā haumāna e hoʻohana ai no ka hana ʻana i nā prototypes no nā papahana like ʻole.ʻO ka mea hoʻokele CNC ma ka Fabrication Lab (i kapa ʻia ʻo "Fab Lab") e ʻoki i nā ʻāpana nui o ka huʻa a me ka lāʻau e hana i nā ʻāpana keʻa o nā kaʻa no nā hui heihei.He mīkini hoʻoheheʻe wai, nā mea ʻoki lāʻau a me ka papa ʻaina CNC hou i ke ʻano metala, ka plastik mānoanoa, ka lāʻau a me ke aniani i nā ʻāpana pono o nā ʻano a me nā nui.
E ʻae koke aku kekahi mau mea paʻi 3D hou i nā haumāna e lawe i kā lākou mau hoʻolālā mai ka papa kiʻi kiʻi (a i ʻole ka pale kamepiula) i ka hana ʻana a laila prototype stage - ʻo ke kaʻina mua o ka pōʻai hana o kēlā me kēia papahana ʻenekinia, wahi a Bill Kline, hoa dean o ka hana hou a me ke kaukaʻi. o ka hooponopono enekinia.
Loaʻa i ka hale kahi Thermofluids Laboratory hou, i kapa ʻia ʻo Wet Lab, me kahi kahawai wai a me nā mea hana ʻē aʻe e hiki ai i nā loea ʻenekinia mechanical ke kūkulu i nā ʻike loiloi dimensional i kā lākou mau papa wai, e aʻo ʻia ana ma nā lumi papa pili.
"He keʻena hoʻoheheʻe wai maikaʻi loa kēia," wahi a ke kaukaʻi o ka ʻenekinia mechanical Michael Moorhead, nāna i kūkākūkā i ka hoʻolālā ʻana i nā hiʻohiʻona o ka KIC.“He mea paʻakikī loa ka mea hiki iā mākou ke hana ma mua.I kēia manawa, inā (nā polopeka) e noʻonoʻo i kahi hiʻohiʻona lima e kōkua i ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i kahi manaʻo aʻo i loko o ka mīkini wai, hiki iā lākou ke hele ma hope a hoʻokō i ka manaʻo.
ʻO nā papa ʻē aʻe e hoʻohana ana i nā wahi hoʻonaʻauao e uhi ana i nā kumuhana e like me ka theoretical aerodynamics, ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ka hoʻolālā ʻana, nā ʻōnaehana propulsion, ka loiloi luhi a me ka puhi ʻana.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Rose-Hulman Provost Anne Houtman, "ʻO ka hui pū ʻana o nā lumi papa a me ka lumi papahana ke kākoʻo nei i nā kumu i ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā hana lima i kā lākou aʻo ʻana.Eia kekahi, ke kōkua nei ka KIC iā mākou e hoʻokaʻawale i nā papahana nui a messier mai nā mea liʻiliʻi, 'maʻemaʻe'.
Aia ma waenakonu o ka KIC he hale hana hana, kahi e ʻimi ai nā haumāna a hoʻomohala i nā manaʻo noʻonoʻo.Eia kekahi, hoʻohana ʻia nā keʻena hana hāmama a me kahi lumi hālāwai i ke ao a me ka pō e nā hui hoʻokūkū like ʻole e hui pū ana ma nā ʻano aʻoaʻo.Hoʻohui ʻia kahi keʻena hoʻolālā no ka makahiki kula 2019-20 e kākoʻo i nā haumāna nui i ka hoʻolālā ʻenekinia, kahi papahana hou i hoʻohui ʻia i ka papahana 2018.
"ʻO nā mea a pau a mākou e hana ai, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka lawelawe ʻana i kā mākou mau haumāna," wahi a Kline.“Hoʻokomo mākou i kahi ākea a ʻaʻole maopopo mākou inā hoʻohana nā haumāna.ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua makemake nā haumāna a ua lilo ia i wahi kaulana loa o ka hale."
