Donation of over €1,000 to the Volkach Forest Kindergarten

Last Friday the engineering firm Glaser surprised us with a donation of €1,000 to the Förderverein Waldkindergarten Volkach. Managing director Johannes Glaser and his team were on site to present the symbolic check.

The company from Nordheim stands for technical progress and places great value on creative approaches and individuality. During a tour of the facility in the middle of the forest, Johannes Glaser commented, “In a toddler’s imagination everything is still possible. As an adult, what remains is what kindergarten, school, and parents have allowed. Instead of pressure to perform, children should have the freedom to develop their creativity in nature and be allowed to think without walls.”

The forest kindergarten’s concept addresses this: the children invent toys with their own imagination and natural materials. Daily life takes place in a free outdoor environment in the forest, guided by caregivers who pass on their connection to nature to the children.

“That’s why we consider the donation a matter of the heart and are confident that other companies will support the forest kindergarten,” said Johannes Glaser.

Learning begins where imagination becomes tangible.

From this conviction, Johannes Glaser of Ingenieurbüro Glaser and Adrian Siebing, lecturer for New Web Technologies at the Service-centric Networking (SNET) group of Technical University of Berlin, met in the electrical lab in Nordheim.

Amid prototypes, tools and creative ideas, Johannes Glaser handed over a professional 5th-generation MakerBot 3D printer to the department.

This device gives students direct access to additive manufacturing-beyond theoretical concepts. Complex industry projects at the department can now be not only conceptually developed within student projects but also made practically tangible. The ability to realize one's own ideas directly creates a practice-oriented bridge between teaching and research. In addition to first experiences in 3D printing, students acquire mindsets and working methods characteristic of innovative development processes.

The entire department under the direction of Prof. Dr. Axel Küpper sincerely thanks for this valuable contribution to practice-oriented education.

Pioneering spirit from student days strengthens control engineering lab

On behalf of the Technical University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS), Prof. Dr. Abid Ali warmly thanks Mr. Johannes Glaser for donating the experimental setup “ball balance” to the Control Engineering Lab.

Over ten years ago, the then electrical engineering student of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering showed extraordinary commitment. Instead of limiting himself to regulating an existing experimental setup as required, he independently developed and built a completely new control plant. Together with his fellow student Daniel Neeser, he created a sophisticated setup-the “ball balance”. This teaching model now enables our students to learn the theoretical fundamentals of control engineering in a practical way. The aim of the experiment is to design a stable control loop that uses a propeller drive to regulate a metal ball into the center of a seesaw.

We are delighted with this valuable addition to our Control Engineering Lab and appreciate Mr. Glaser's contribution to the practical training of our students. We wish him much success and all the best for the future as an independent engineer. His commitment is a shining example of the connection between theory and practice that we particularly promote at our university.
