INTERNSHIPS (3)



National Engineering Industries Limited

  • Designation: R&D Intern
    Division: Advanced Product Technology (Technology Functions)
    Department: Research and Development
    Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
    Duration: 6 months
    Description: Took the Sensor Integrated Bearing (SIB) project to the next stage by making a second version of the prototype, which was more robust and compact as compared to the previous one (made in the 2-month internship). The aim of this version of the prototype was to make a prototype which can successfully be pitched to a customer thereby having a more product-centric approach.
    Comments: I started building an understanding of the corporate culture in detail and got comfortable with terms like 5S, BOM (Bill of Materials), SOP (Standard Operating Procedure), CFT (Cross-Functional Team), Brainstorming Session, SME (Subject Matter Expert).

  • Designation: R&D Intern
    Division: Advanced Product Technology (Technology Functions)
    Department: Research and Development
    Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
    Duration: 2 months
    Description: Pitched the concept of Sensor Integrated Bearings (SIB) and made a rough working prototype for concept proving, it consisted a simple 6305 DGBB (Deep Groove Ball Bearing) with a sensor unit embedded to it, so as to provide real-time RPM and temperature signals to the controller.
    Comments: This is the first time I actually used a 3D printed model for prototyping.

Tinkerly (previously SRJNA)
Designation: Research Intern
Department: Research and Development
Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
Duration: 2 months
Description: Made a plethora of projects with proper documentation of requirements and concepts covered in the project. These projects showed the integration of electronics with common daily use products which can be found easily, like bucket, thread, popsicle sticks, rubber bands etc. Further, these DIY (Do it yourself) projects were used to train school faculties and teach students regarding the uprising world of electronics and technology.

TRAININGS (3)


TechieNest Pvt. Ltd.

  • Designation: Trainee
    Technology: Internet of Things (IoT) and Raspberry Pi
    Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
    Duration: 1 month
    Description: Learnt about python and how it is widely used in the technology industry. Then using python, programmed Raspberry-Pi board (Model 3) and had hands-on experience in IoT (Internet of Things) by interfacing various sensors with the Raspberry-Pi board. Made around 5+ projects and implemented SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), accessed MATLAB's ThinkSpeak cloud service, used Python's XLWT and XLRD libraries for data storing and accessing.
    Comments: This training acted as a level-up to my knowledge of Embedded Systems and Robotics (which I learnt in the previous training). At this moment, I started connecting the dots and wondered what projects can be made using all that I learnt till now!

  • Designation: Trainee
    Technology: Embedded Systems and Robotics
    Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India
    Duration: 1 month
    Description: Learnt embedded systems and robotics and made around 20+ projects (like bots) using WiFi modules, GPS modules, GPRS modules, Bluetooth modules, RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) modules, Radio Communication modules, DTMF (Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency) modules, 16X2 LCD display, LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensors, IR (Infrared) sensors, Temperature and Humidity sensors. The controllers used for interfacing were Atmel's ATMega16 and ATmega8 micro-controllers (via Embedded C programming). And finally, learnt about PCB designing and all the processes involved in printing one.
    Comments: At this time I just cleared my first year and was having no knowledge of digital electronics and bit-level programming, so this first training of mine taught me a lot and got my interest into core electronics.

Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL)
Designation: Vocational Trainee
Technology: CNC and PLC Machines
Location: Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, India
Duration: 2 weeks
Description: Learnt the functioning of India's one of the most reputed engineering and manufacturing company, BHEL. BHEL Jhansi deals with 2 major products i.e. high-powered industrial transformers and locomotives (train engines). The transformers were then supplied for use in national power grids and internally by BHEL Jhansi for making the locomotives. The learning project completed during the traineeship was on PLC and CNC machines.
Comments: It was the first time that I saw such an enormous facility for the production of transformers. Here, I introduced with the concept of "WAYS" on the shop floor and how all the processes are parallelly managed in the plant.
