PREFACE

The wave of liberalization and globalization has created an environment for free flow

of information and technology through fast and efficient means the world over. This has lead

to shrinking of world, bringing people from different cultures and environment together,

giving rise to a global village. A shift has been taking place in India from closed economy to

knowledge based and open economy. In order to cope-up with the challenges of handling

new technologies, materials and methods, we have to develop human resources having

appropriate knowledge, professional skills and attitudes. Technical education system is one of

the significant components for human resource development. Polytechnics play an important

role in meeting the requirements of trained technical manpower for industries and field

organizations. The initiatives being taken by the Directorate of Technical Education to revise

the curriculum of existing Diploma programmes as per the needs of the industry are laudable.

In order to meet the requirements of future technical manpower, constant efforts have

to be made to identify new employment opportunities, carry out activity analysis and design

need based curriculum to Diploma programmes. This curriculum document has been

designed by identifying job potential and competency profile of Diploma holders leading to

identification of curriculum areas for the course. It is needless to emphasize that the real

success of the Diploma programme depends upon its effective implementation. This will

require harnessing and effective utilization of resources. In addition to acquisition of

appropriate physical resources, the availability of competent and qualified faculty is essential.

It is time for the managers of technical education system to reorganize the system to accept

the challenges of both quantitative and qualitative expansion of technical education.

There are various online training facilities created by the Government of India

through MHRD for the benefit of both the Teaching and Student community. Facilities like

Spoken-Tutorial, NPTEL, e-Yantra must be exploited to its fullest extent to reap the benefits

of interactive electronic media for teaching-learning process. It is hoped that polytechnics

will carry out job market research on a continuous basis to identify the new skill requirements

and develop innovative methods of course offering and thereby infuse dynamism in the

system.

3E 3210 FOUNDRY, SMITHY & WELDING PRACTICE

RATIONALE:

A Diploma holder technician should get more opportunity to know about machines,

equipment and its operations which will help to be more confident and practical oriented.

Workshop SKILL is also a kind of ESSENTAL PRACTICAL KNOWEDGE required

for the Engineering students in general and Diploma Students in particular. A Diploma

holder must know how to behave and work on shop floor. This helps to develop psychomotor

skill and attitude. Workshop practice is the backbones of the real industrial work situation,

which helps in development and enhancement of relevant skill required by the technical

working in engineering industries and workshops.

In order to have a balanced overall development of diploma engineers, it is necessary

to integrate theory with practice. Workshop practices are included in the curriculum in order

to provide hands on experience about use of different tools and basic manufacturing

practices. Knowledge about casting processes and allied areas will be of great use to the

personnel involved in production.

Diploma holders are responsible for supervising production processes to achieve

production targets and for optimal utilization of resources. For this purpose, knowledge about

various machining processes is required to be imparted.

Handling Mechanical Engineering Materials is a core technology subject in

Mechanical Engineering Discipline. A Mechanical Engineering diploma holder deals with

various materials required for cutting tools, Dies, Gears, Bearings and many other

applications. Knowledge of selection of proper tool materials, heat treatments for specific

materials, ferrous and non- ferrous materials and their alloys for various engineering

application, as well as insulating, refractory and plastic materials as per the requirements is

essential.

This subject will help the student to be familiarized with working principles and

operations like forging, rolling, extrusion, press working, lathe, drilling, milling, casting,

welding, brazing and soldering etc., which are the basic production processes.

The basic knowledge of these material processing will be helpful to select the most

appropriate process for getting the desired results in terms of getting the raw material

converted to finished product as per the requirements.

They will be using different types of tools/equipment in different shops for fabrication

purposes. Besides above, the development of dignity of labour, precision, safety at work

places, team working and development of right attitude, are other objectives.

The workshop experiences would also help them to understand the complexity of

industrial working in relative shorter duration of time. The students are advised to undergo

each skill experience with an understanding of know-how with special emphasis on know-

why for the various instructions/practices imparted to them in each shop.

Mechanical diploma technician is expected to know basic workshop practice like, Gas

Welding, gas Cutting, casting and hot working processes. The students are required to

identify, operate and control various machines. The students are required to select and use

various tools and equipment for welding, casting and forging operations.

globalization, the government of India has announced liberalization policy of starting an

enterprise which is resulted in the mushroom growth of industries. The present day students

should be trained not only in manufacturing processes but also in managing activities of

industries. Training must be imparted to students not only to shape them as technicians but

also as good managers.

The knowledge about plant, safety, work study techniques, personnel management

and financial management will definitely mould the students as managers to suit the

industries. Due to the presence of such personalities the industries will leap for better

prosperity and development.

OBJECTIVES

Explain the different types of layout and compare them.

Appreciate the safety aspects and its impacts on an organization.

Compare different productivity improvement technique.

Explain different work measurement techniques.

Estimate standard time for a job.

Explain production planning and control and its functions.
