The lecture program of the Machine Construction event is particularly extensive this year. One of the plenary presentations is provided by electric automaker Lightyear. Wim van Stratum, VP Operations at Lightyear, explains the entire process – from concept to production – to build the world's first long-distance private solar car. How is the development of this solar-powered electric family car progressing?

Van Stratum elaborates on the idea behind the Lightyear One. Then the production of the car is discussed. What showcase production lines does the company have in mind? With limited space and creative use of 'manufacturing 4.0' aspects, we work in a challenging working environment.

View an impression of the aerodynamic testing of the Lightyear One below. More videos can be found on it Youtube Channel.

The sixth edition of the Machine Construction event will take place at 1931 Congrescentrum in Den Bosch. Register for a visit to the event. This is completely free (including coffee, lunch and networking drinks) provided you belong to the target group.
