Central Workshop is a place where students acquire knowledge on the operation of various processes involved in realizing any product. The workshop supports our undergraduate teaching and research activities. It is also used to manufacture complex precision components and prototypes for undergraduate and research projects. At the workshop, students acquire knowledge on the operation of various processes involved in manufacturing and production. The workshop is intended for training as well as prototyping for students and research labs. The workshop makes students competent in handling practical work in engineering environment through learning by doing. The workshop has various shops with state-of-the art equipment such as machine shop, foundry shop, CNC shop, welding shop and 3D printing to name a few. The workshop is supported by well-trained technical staff in their respective trades. The engineering performed in the mechanical workshop focuses on producing specialized, high-precision low-volume parts for laboratory and research work.
Situated in the south campus, this 700 m2 facility is equipped with state-of-the-art rapid prototyping equipment (3D printers), CNC machine tools, conventional lathes and milling machines and welding and fabrication equipment. We are further equipped with a CAD/CAM package to enhance our design and manufacturing capabilities.
Highly experienced technical staff are available to assist and guide the students. This includes the design assessment and feasibility, the material selection and the sourcing of associated components and manufacturing.
