Sümer Fen Lisesi students win second place at TEKNOFEST

A four-member student team named ‘SRK-TECH’ from Sümer Fen Lisesi in Kayseri, Turkey, secured second place in the ‘Robolig’ category at the TEKNOFEST Aviation, Space and Technology Festival held in Şanlıurfa.

Under the guidance of teacher Fatih Kültuktürkan, the 12th-grade students designed a six-jointed industrial robot using 3D printing technology along with domestic sensors and circuit boards. The robot demonstrated the ability to pick up materials, transport them to specific targets, and stack them in towers. During the competition, the team completed tasks including stacking four boxes and transferring rings to a communication tower.

Team captain Ecrin Mina Çavuşoğlu noted that the team had previously won first place in the same category last year. Following their success, the students were honored with a welcoming ceremony at their school.
