April 23, 2025 - EXAIR has a long history of community engagement, particularly with the University of Cincinnati. Recently, an opportunity arose to help bring engineering dreams to life through the University of Cincinnati’s Combat Robotics Team. By contributing time, product and financial backing, EXAIR is proud to support and encourage the growth of a younger generation of engineers and continue increasing the visibility of STEAM learning. UCCR (University of Cincinnati Combat Robotics) is a private club on the college's campus that designs, engineers and battles robotic creations. The club features a team of about 10 aspiring engineers who, in between their heavy courseloads, create highly technical and impressive robots that compete in different tournaments around the United States.
The club itself is highly focused on building sound engineering principles and the ability to marry those principles with creativity to create a formidable machine. The fostering of this creativity and the furthering of engineering as a whole is perfectly aligned with the values of EXAIR. With traveling to events, finding materials for the robots, providing funding for fabrication costs, and other expenses, EXAIR supports these students academically while encouraging them to become the best version of themselves. Giving back to the community is a core value of EXAIR , and this is just one of many ways EXAIR will continue to honor that tradition.
