The Young Precision Network (YPN) - part of the DSPE community -organises events for young professionals and students. On Thursday 7 December 2023, just three weeks after the Precision Fair, YPN organised yet another activity, this time a visit to Demcon high-tech systems in Best (NL), in the Brainport Eindhoven region. As a full-service design house, Demcon has an extensive mechatronic engineering track record in a wide range of markets and applications, from which their Best office focuses mainly on high-tech systems, life sciences & health, and data-driven solutions.

In the Netherlands alone, some 150 million tons of CO2 disappear into the air every year. Anyone who realizes that we have been emitting this unlimited amount for a century and a half knows it will take a lot to halt this process. By 2050 we should be there: no more CO2 in the air worldwide. Whether we will succeed is far from certain, but even if we do, we still have to get rid of all those carbon dioxides already in the air. An impossible task? Not according to Carbyon, the Eindhoven start-up that has taken it upon itself to suck all the CO2 out of the air.

During the High Tech Next at the High Tech Campus Eindhoven, 25 high-tech demos were presented. So cool Demcon could be one of these demos!
