Smart solution for Nestle engineering apprentices

Brammer is once again giving encouragement to the manufacturing engineers of the future. The company joined forces with pneumatics supplier Festo to provide components for a giant working model of a Smartie tube built by engineering apprentices at Nestlé. The 4m high tube was designed for the Nestle stand at The Big Bang UK Young Scientists' and Engineers' Fair at Birmingham's National Exhibition Centre, where it was viewed by HRH the Duke of York.
