The donated robotic unit previously served at Alba’s Casthouse 2, efficiently stacking finished product bundles for over a decade before being replaced by a more advanced model. This transition of technology from industry to academia symbolises Alba's commitment to sustainability and resource optimisation.

“We are pleased to support NVTC's journey in robotics by equipping students with the opportunity to gain practical experience in robot design, programming, and operation.

“We are proud to partner with Alba, one of the largest aluminium smelters in the world. This collaboration extends beyond regular contributions and encompasses various projects. Our Center’s R&D arm plays a key role by providing Alba with innovative smart technology solutions, when in turn, Alba demonstrates its commitment to the Center's vision and mission. Their support empowers Bahraini youth by equipping them with industrial skills through practical training and curricula aligned with actual units used by Alba,” NVTC CEO Dr Abdulla Naser Al Noaimi stated. 

NVTC’s engineering students will now benefit from this sophisticated equipment, which will be integral to their robotics program. This hands-on experience is designed to equip students with the necessary skills for thriving careers in the dynamic field of robotics, fostering a new generation of technically proficient professionals.
