ANGOLA, IN - YRG Robotics, the Fort Wayne-based U.S. distributor of Yamaha robots, has donated more than $22,000 of robotics equipment to the Trine Center for Technical Training, based at Trine University's Angola campus.

The donation includes two industrial robots - a single-axis slider and the second a 350-millimeter Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm (SCARA) - plus controlling systems.

Both types of robots are designed to perform simple actions quickly.

"This generous donation by YRG Robotics allows us to provide a complete range of robotics training options to students in the Trine Center for Technical Training and in the mechatronics and robotics engineering major at Trine University," said Jason Blume, executive director at Trine innovation 1. "Not only will students have the opportunity to work with another type of robot, but this will provide exposure to and opportunities for different programming languages."
