Summer schools at TU Delft

At TU Delft, the Summer School was designed for technical university students with a focused emphasis on motor control and electrical drives. Held in July 2025, the program brought together a mixed cohort of BSc, MSc, and PhD students, reflecting strong academic engagement across degree levels.

The GEMS Project enabled a structured progression from theory to practical implementation. Through three lectures and two hands-on workshops, students used GEMS educational equipment to study the GEMS servomotor drivetrain, integrating core concepts from the Electrical Drives MOOC. By working with real hardware and 3D-printed mechanical components, participants translated analytical motor control principles into a functioning electro-mechanical system.

Laboratory activities focused on system assembly, motor control implementation, and feedback integration within a complete drivetrain. While certain tasks required careful setup and precision, overall student feedback highlighted high levels of engagement and clear relevance to their academic programs.

The TU Delft Summer School demonstrated the value of the GEMS Project in delivering advanced, application-oriented education in motor control, effectively bridging theoretical knowledge and practical engineering practice.
