We started off the visit by hopping on our bikes and heading to Hittech Multin in Ypenburg. It was challenging keeping up with the guys on my 40 euro Marktplaats bike, but we made it there!
We were warmly welcomed with a hot cup of coffee before diving into an introduction about Hittech Multin. Following the talk, we split into two groups for a tour of the facility. It was great to see their products up close and learn about the many roles engineers play. Not just in design but also in prototyping, testing, and even planning the test setups.
After the tour, we tackled a challenging case study presented by the team. It was fascinating to see their approach and the emphasis they placed on material science and manufacturing techniques. These factors were highlighted as crucial for achieving the best possible designs.
We wrapped up the visit with some drinks and casual conversations with Hittech employees, which gave us a deeper insight into their work and culture.
A big thank-you to Hittech Multin for hosting such an engaging and informative event!
