The IVI Tinkerers Club : Where Learning and Fun Come Together!

Have you heard of our IVI Tinkerers Club?

It is a unique social club at IVI that brings together the passionate minds of our company, who are enthusiasts of technology, fabrication, and DIY, allowing members to collaborate and make progress on personal projects.

The club has access to IVI-owned equipment for personal projects and regularly organizes internal events and workshops throughout the year.

Much like the professionals at IVI, the members of this club are curious, versatile, and experts in various fields such as programming, digital fabrication, mechanics, electronics, robotics, and many more.

Their passion for innovation drives them to get involved and create cutting-edge solutions while generously sharing their expertise to help their colleagues bring their personal projects to life.

Once a month, members gather during a dedicated evening to unleash their creativity and ingenuity, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment provided by our research institute.

 

 

Inspiring projects emerge

From repairing miniature electric motors for aquariums to crafting custom parts through 3D printing, our members undertake projects ranging from the simplest to the most ambitious.

Recently, a workshop on brake replacement was organized in our new facility. This event took the form of a mini-training session where valuable practices and tips were exchanged.

A flight simulator competition was also held in our dynamometer control room, bringing together several employees! The goal was to achieve the most energy-efficient flight between Montreal International Airport (YUL) and Mirabel Airport (YMX).

The experience highlighted the environmental impact of transportation activities, especially in aviation, underscoring the crucial importance of energy efficiency. In addition to this, the competition provided participants with an opportunity to apply their piloting skills and fuel-saving strategies. This experience was both entertaining and informative for all participants.
