Details of the equipment:

Rotary Ultrasonic
Machining Set Up

Rotary USM Set Up was procured under TEQIP-II. It is based on non-traditional machining concept, and utilizes both the rotary action of the spindle as well as high frequency ultrasonic vibration to machine very delicate, brittle and non-metallic substances with application of very less cutting force. Four PhD scholars are doing their experimental research work currently on this equipment, while one PhD thesis has been completed already.

CNC Wire Cut EDM

This equipment was procured under TEQIP-I. CNC wire cut EDM is used for machining of electrically conductive metals with the help of a thin wire electrode. It utilizes the high frequency sparking action for machining purpose. About ten PhD scholars have already completed their research work on this equipment. Many M. Tech. Thesis have also been undertaken on this equipment. A large number of research papers have also been published, including SCI and Scopus indexed Journals. B. Tech. students are also given exposure on this equipment in their lab (APT Lab Pr.)

Pneumatic Comparators (2 Nos)

It compares the unknown dimensions of a part with some standard or master setting which represents the basic size and dimensional variations from the master setting. Air is supplied at constant pressure through the orifice and the air escapes in the form of jets through a restricted space which exerts a back pressure. The variation in the back pressure is then used to compare the size of a component.

Roundness Tester

High accuracy Roundness / Cylindricity measuring instrument with achieving easy operation.

Monochromatic Light Source Unit with Optical Flats

It is used to measure the flatness of a component by interference. A flat surface is indicated by a pattern of straight, parallel fringes with equal spacing, while other patterns indicate uneven surfaces.

Universal Gear Roll Tester

Useful for checking total composite error, tooth to tooth error of Helical and Spur Gears.

Double Disc Polishing Machine

It is used for polishing of metallic samples. Polished samples are further analyzed under microscope for metallurgical studies.

Digital Toolmakers Microscope

It is used for all precision 2D and 3D measurements.

Semi-Micro Weighing Balance

It is used to measure the weight of the small specimens with an accuracy of 0.01 mg

Optical Profile Projector

The profile projector is a very useful optical instrument that is used in industries for the purpose of analysis of the shapes of the components used in different products. The profile makes it easy to measure the dimensions of the specimen with great accuracy.

Slip Gauges, Vernier Caliper, Screw Gauge, Gear Tooth Vernier Caliper

These are used for precise measurement of linear dimensions.
