Farm Machinery Laboratory
The farm machinery laboratory is facilitated with basic and advance farm equipment. This lab has agricultural machines like tractors, power tillers and allied tools like ploughs, sowing/planting/ transplanting machines, power weeder, sprayer, reapers and thrashers. The smart farm machinery chamber is sponsored by Dassault software like SOLIDWORKS and CATIA.
Objectives of the Laboratory
To enable students:
- Learn basic and advanced techniques used in agricultural machinery
- Learn the operation and maintenance of basic and advanced agricultural machinery
- Compete in the field of farm machinery and power engineering.
- Develop sensor-based smart agricultural machines or equipment for the farmer community.
Outcomes
The students
- Being able to design and operate the agricultural machine.
- Being skilled in developing the 3D model and simulating the agricultural machine.
- Being able to fabricate the agricultural machine.
- Wide scope of Research and Development and awareness on the same.
Caters to
BTech, MTech, Skills for Success (SFS) and Domain Courses. The lab serves as state-of-the- art facility for research scholars: PhD and Research fellows.
The students will be able to carry on hands on experiential learning on machine tools like tractors, hoes along with fault diagnostics and condition monitoring.
