Shops in the Central Workshop

1. Machine Shop

The Machine Shop introduces students to traditional machining techniques using lathes, drilling machines, and milling machines. This shop is essential for engineering students, helping them develop skills in shaping and finishing materials with high precision.

 

2. Carpentry Shop

In the Carpentry Shop, students gain experience in woodworking, using hand tools and power tools to create wooden patterns, supports, and other components. This shop is especially useful for students working on prototypes and projects in Engineering.

 

3. Pattern Shop

The Pattern Shop teaches students to make patterns for metal casting. Students use materials like wood and metal to create accurate patterns that are later used to form molds for casting. This shop is critical for students focusing on manufacturing and materials science.

 

4. Fitting Shop

The Fitting Shop provides practical training in manual fitting and assembly. Students use hand tools like files, hammers, and taps to assemble parts with precision. This is an important skill for Mechanical Engineering students, as it teaches them how to assemble and align components accurately.

 

5. Moulding Shop

In the Moulding Shop, students learn how to prepare sand molds for metal casting. This shop is crucial for students interested in the casting process, providing them with hands-on experience in shaping molds for manufacturing metal parts.

 

6. Welding Shop

The Welding Shop allows students to practice various welding techniques, such as arc welding and gas welding. This training is essential for students to learn how to join metals effectively, a skill important in fabrication and manufacturing industries.

 

7. Smithy Shop

In the Smithy Shop, students learn metal forging techniques using hammers and anvils to shape hot metal. This shop provides a foundation in metalworking, helping students understand metallurgy and heat treatment, essential for Mechanical Engineering students.
