The newly constructed Automation, Innovation, and Robotics (AIR) Center at Moraine Park Technical College’s Fond du Lac Campus was constructed to address local workforce shortages by providing advanced training in software, programming, product design, manufacturing, and robotics.
C.D. Smith Construction served as the general contractor for the project, completed in 2024. The AIR Center, part of Moraine Park’s $55 million district-wide referendum, features 18,000 SF of state-of-the-art labs, including Robotics, Mechatronics, 3D Printing, and CNC. The renovation of the existing 30,000 SF B-Wing manufacturing facility enhances labs for Industrial Maintenance, Welding, Metal Fabrication, and more.
