KNOWLEDGE INCUBATION FOR TEQIP

IIT KANPUR

Glimpse of the Program

ABOUT

The economic strength of a country is usually judged by the growth of its

manufacturing industries. Therefore, manufacturing has become part of the

fabric of our country with emphasis on

"Make in India" by the government. It is

essential that technical workforce from all

disciplines have basic idea about

processes involved in making a product.

Knowledge Incubation for TEQIP

organized this 12-day course with the

motive to impart the basic knowledge

about the fundamental manufacturing techniques employed to convert a raw

material into final

product.

The course was

conducted at TA202 lab.

Almost 20 IIT Kanpur

staff were involved all

day to conduct this

course. Each day started

with one-hour lecture

about various

manufacturing processes

followed by working in

the lab.

Undergraduate students accompanied by a faculty actively participated in this

program. Participants came from various TEQIP institutes from U.P, Jharkhand,

Jammu & Kashmir and Tamil Nadu.

TOPICS DISCUSSED

1. Introduction: Introduction to manufacturing, evolution of

manufacturing, importance of design in manufacturing,

engineering materials, mechanical properties important for

manufacturing.

2. Conventional Material Removal Processes: Theory of chip

formations, generation of surfaces, force and power

relationships, cutting tool material and its geometry, tool wear,

fundamentals of machine tools, types of machining operations.

3. Unconventional Material Removal Processes: Introduction,

mechanical energy processes, thermal energy processes, electro

chemical machining.

4. Computer Numerical Control and Programming: Basics of

numerically controlled machines, programming for NC

machines, motion and coordinate system, structure of a NC

part program, examples of part programming.

5. Microfabrication Processes: Silicon processing, lithography,

microfabrication processes.

6. Layered/Generative Manufacturing Processes: Fundamentals, steps in additive manufacturing, additive

manufacturing technologies.

7. Engineering Metrology: Dimensions, tolerances, surfaces,

structure and properties, surface texture and roughness,

engineering metrology and instrumentation.

OUTCOME

This program received an overwhelming response from various TEQIP

colleges. This course has been a great success for the second year in a

row. Dr. Niraj Sinha organized this course in such a way that the students

and faculty were excited with the course plan and left very satisfied

overall learning experience.

At the end of the course, the participants were able to demonstrate a

working prototype designed, fabricated and assembled by them. The

prototypes were based on agriculture, transportation, healthcare,

educational toys to help school children, machines and mechanisms.

This program presented an opportunity to the students to get a hands

on experience that they usually lack due to absence of infrastructure

in their institute.

The faculty members were exposed to the pedagogy of IIT Kanpur

and the course helped them in planning similar courses and setting

up the lab in their parent institute in an efficient manner.

This program introduced participants to

o Mechanical properties of materials,

o Conventional and non-conventional material removal

processes

o CNC programming

o Metrology

o Microfabrication processes

o Layered manufacturing technique

By organizing more workshop & Lab Courses (26)

It can practically improve by skills and knowledge (05)

By providing workshop on different topic in different place and many other activity (03)

Greeting a platform, the student from different college come together and work as something which enhances their learning skills and commercials (04)

I didn’t know that now to start the design so if this is done by TEQIP then it can improve research (03)

It can surely help in the learning process as they have a lot of facilities available for students like us. Moreover

TEQIP help to improve our knowledge by conducting the various workshop internship and session etc. (02)

By providing modern equipment and training center, (14)

By providing fund for research and lab like IITs have (03)

By training and workshop for more days to help us visual the machining process by experts. (05)

University and we do research within those only, so when we have enough exposure through TEQIP, It will surely help in. (02)

TEQIP is provides as great opportunity to do new and great things beyond our limits. Thanks a lot TEQIP (02)
