 ABSTRACT

Every student of Bachelor of Technology in Mechanical Engineering has an essential

requirement to do 15 days of internship in any of the well reputed organization. The purpose of
this program is to acquaint the students with practical applications of theoretical concepts taught
to them during conduct of their course.

Really, it was a nice opportunity to have a close comparison of theoretical concept in practical
field. This report may depict deficiencies on my part but still it is an output of a student’s efforts,
for which I beg pardon.

The output of my analysis is summarized in a shape of Internship the contents of the report

4. Construction of weigh Bridge:

 The typical electronic weigh – bridges consists of a fabricated platform 4,6 or 8 load
cells junction box, load cell cable and weight indicator. The weight of any truck on the
weigh – bridge is sensed by the load cell which is converted into electronic signal. These
signals are transmitted to common junction box. The total output is the directly fed to the
indicator in control room.

10.Conclusion:

The practical training has proved to be quite fruitful. It provided me to encounter with such huge
machines and mechanism. It has allowed me an opportunity to get an exposure of practical
aspects and their implementation to theoretical fundamentals. This will help me improving my
performance in theory classes by introducing to the practical work. It will helped me to know my
strength and weakness so that I can improve my skills and overcome my limitations of taking
appropriate measures. I was exposed to real work situations and I learned how to equip them
with the necessary skills so that I would be ready for the job when I will be graduated.

The architecture of the plant, the way two units are linked, the way of working in plant and how
everything is controlled make me realized that engineering is not just learning the structural
description and working of various machines but the greater part of planning management.
