This lab is divided into following sub classification:

  • Carpentry
  • Plumbing
  • Sheet Metal
  • Welding
  • Foundry and Smithy

CAD lab

The CAD laboratory in Park College of Engineering and Technology is a cutting edge lab facility available with the Mechanical Engineering, wherein all the students Department (UG & PG), research scholars and faculty can work with 2-D and 3-D design and analysis packages. The users are encouraged to learn, practice and apply the knowledge gained into their research areas. Initially this facility is introduced mainly for students to evolve concepts and convert it into a complete product.

The CAD lab provides digitally integrated environment where the users can design, analyze, simulate and build components. The Laboratory has the following section:

  • Engineering graphics
  • Geometric Modeling
  • Finite Element Analysis
  • Product Development
  • Rapid Prototyping

Lathe and special Machines

The lathe and special Machines shop supports to conduct practical classes of Manufacturing Technology I and Manufacturing Technology II for the students of Mechanical Engineering. The students are trained to operate all the above machines and learn various machining processes. At the end of the course, the students are asked to do a project work applying the knowledge gained during the course by the name Design and Fabrication Project.

Metrology Lab

Metrology is the science of measurement. Metrology Lab in our department is equipped with various measuring instruments, gauges and measuring machines. It makes the students to understand the basic principle involved in measuring process that suits for the respective product and its importance in the quality control (Control charts & process capability). The experiments are based on geometrical measurements, form measurements using various basic measuring instruments like all types of vernier, micrometer and dial gauges etc (Profile Projector ). The students are exposed to learn about the error involved in the measurements, calibration of measuring instruments.

Fluid Mechanics lab

The Fluid Mechanics Laboratory consists of flow measurement devices, head loss measurement in pipe flow, impact of water jet on vanes, flow visualization apparatus, hydraulic pumps and turbines. The students will experimentally demonstrate the knowledge gained from fluid mechanics. The students are encouraged to operate the experimental test rig to know the operational procedures and to familiarize the working principle with performance calculations.

Strength of Materials lab

Strength of materials laboratory is well equipped with destructive testing machineries. This lab course is offered in the second year for the students from various departments in the school of mechanical engineering. Students will be able to understand the theoretical concepts of solid mechanics course and enable them to apply it practically in this laboratory. Different types of tests are conducted in this laboratory as per standards (ASTM and IS) to know the various mechanical properties of a material such as young’s modulus, shear modulus, hardness, toughness, deflection, fatigue strength etc.

Dynamics Lab

The objective of this lab is to impart practical knowledge on design and analysis of mechanisms in the machine tools and automobiles. In Machine Dynamics Lab, the students are doing the experiments related to their theory subjects like Engineering Mechanics, Machines and Mechanisms and Fundamentals of Vibration and Noise.Various equipment like governors, gyroscopes, balancing machines and universal vibration testing facilities are available to understand machine dynamics. The working models of simple mechanisms like gears, cams and followers are very much useful to understand Basic Mechanical Engineering subject

CAM lab
