ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

The Department consists of one Associate Professor and Three Assistant Professors to support the needs of core engineering branches. Three lab- assistants support the maintenance of Engineering Practice Laboratories. The Engineering Practices Lab aims to impart the basic practical knowledge in Mechanical and Civil engineering. Engineering Graphics is taught by using prototype models are available to make the students for better understandability about Engineering Graphics. The department of Mechanical Engineering supports the core engineering branches by handling the theory and practical courses relevant to Mechanical Engineering. The admin of the Mechanical Engineering department cum under the Civil Engineering Department.

VISION

To identify and to use the particular blend of Technologies and this will provide the most economic, elegant and appropriate solution to the problem in hand.

MISSION

• To Achieve 90 % of result in Theory subjects and 100% result in Practical subjects.
• To enhance the faculty skills by promoting the participation of each staff member for one faculty development programme or to present papers in one conference per year.
• To procure at least 25 Volume of books newly for department library for the year 2017-2018.
• To initiate the first year students to carry out 5 projects to exhibit in the open house exhibition of the year 2017-2018 by exploring their knowledge in mechanical fields.

Engineering Practices Lab

The Engineering Practices Lab provides exposure to the students with hands on basic engineering practices and demonstrations in Civil & Mechanical Engineering as listed below In Civil Section Hands-on-Exercise Plumbing Works : Basic pipe connections - Mixed pipe material connection - Pipe connections with different joining components. Carpentry work : Wood work, joints by sawing, planing and cutting. Study Exercise : Door Panel, Industrial trusses.

In Mechanical Section Hands-on-Exercise

Welding Works: Preparation of Arc Welding of Butt Joints, Lap Joints and Tee Joints.

Machining Work : Simple Turning, Taper Turning and Drilling Practice.

Sheet Metal Work: Model Making - Trays, Funnels.

Study Exercise

Study of Centrifugal Pump

Study of Air Conditioner

Demonstration on : Gas Welding, Smithy Operation, Foundary Operation and Fitting Models
Drawing Practices Hall for Engineering Graphics Subject            Aim : To develop the student's graphic skills for communication of concepts, ideas and design of engineering products and expose them to existing national standards related to technical drawings.

Two drawing halls are available with 60 drawing tables in each hall to conduct the engineering drawing classes.

To achieve the above said goal the engineering graphics classes are handled by efficient staff members and very good results are achieved so for.

The classes are taken with two sets of solid models for the solids like prism, pyramid, cylinder and cone to draw the projections, cut sections and development of the surfaces of solids.

SOLID MODELS Drawing Hall Details            The details of the Drawing Hall area is given below 32.64 X 8.54X 3.66m.
