PREFACE
During the preparation of any shell of boiler or any other required accessories, the metal sheet has to be loaded under the CNC machine where it undergoes cutting operation as per the requirement, then that cut required part and remaining scrap has to be unloaded from that CNC bed. In above mentioned cycle, the main problem is that the unloading time is very high as compared to loading time (near about 10-15 times). This excessive extra time causes the reduction in productivity of company, and hence causes the economic loss as well.

This project is to find solution to decrease that excessive extra unloading time of the cut metal parts and remaining sheet scrap.

HISTORY
Mahindra & Mahindra Limited is the flagship company of the Mahindra Group, a multinational conglomerate based in Mumbai, India. The company was set up in 1945 in Ludhiana as Mahindra & Mohammed by brothers K.C. Mahindra and J.C. Mahindra and Malik Ghulam Mohammed. After India gained independence and
Pakistan was formed, Mohammed immigrated to Pakistan where he became the

nation's first finance minister. The company changed its name to Mahindra & Mahindra in 1948. Mahindra & Mahindra was set up as a steel trading company in 1945. It soon expanded into manufacturing general-purpose utility vehicles, starting with assembly under license of the iconic Willys Jeep in India.

ENGINE
Diesel Engine

INDUSTRIAL REPORT

Thermax Limted, Pune

In 1892 Rudolf Diesel developed and obtained the German patent for the diesel engine. His goal was to create an engine that was highly efficient. Much more efficient than the gasoline engine that was invented in 1876 and was not very efficient at all. Especially at that point in time. There are two main differences between a diesel engine and a gasoline engine. A gasoline engine intakes a mixture of gas and air, compresses it and ignites the mixture with a spark. A diesel engine takes in just air, compresses it and then injects fuel into the compressed air. The heat of the compressed air lights the fuel spontaneously. A gasoline engine compresses at a ratio of 8:1 to 12:1, while a diesel engine compresses at a ratio of 14:1 to as high as 25:1. The higher compression ratio of the diesel engine leads to better efficiency. Gasoline engines use either a carburetor or a fuel injection system to deliver the fuel to the cylinder. With a carburetor the fuel is mixed as it enters the intake manifold, long before it gets to the cylinders. In a fuel injection system the fuel is injected just before the intake stroke at the intake valve Diesel engines use direct fuel injection (DI), that is to say the diesel fuel is injected directly into the cylinder. The diesel engine has no spark plugs. The air it takes in is compressed and the fuel is injected directly into the cylinder where the heat caused by the air compression ignites the fuel. In the old days this meant that it exploded and expanded very quickly, making a noisy engine. This is why most diesel cars were IDI (indirect injection); the rough behavior was fixed by injecting the fuel into a small pre-combustion chamber that is connected to the cylinder by a narrow passage.
INDUSTRIAL REPORT

Thermax Limted, Pune

This slows down the explosion, as the gasses have to escape from through the narrow passage into the cylinder. This gives a softer bang and a smoother engine, but the gasses have to work harder, which lowers the efficiency a little. However the newer breed of DI engines use other techniques to tame the behavior of the engine, such as two stage injection, electronic control, and acoustic shrouds and shock absorbing engine mounts to mask the rattle. The injector on a diesel engine is its most complex component and has been the subject of a great deal of development and innovation. On any specific engine it may be located in a variety of places. The injector has to be able to withstand the temperature and pressure inside the cylinder and still deliver the fuel in a fine mist. Getting the mist circulated in the cylinder so that it is evenly distributed is also a problem, so some diesel engines employ special induction valves, pre-combustion chambers or other devices to swirl the air in the combustion chamber or otherwise improve the ignition and combustion process. One major difference between a gas engine and a diesel engine is in the injection process. Most car engines use port injection or a carburetor rather than direct injection. In a car engine all of the fuel is loaded into the cylinder during the intake stroke and then compressed. The fuel/air mixture limits the compression ratio of the engine. If it compresses the air too much, the fuel/air mixture spontaneously ignites and causes knocking. A diesel compresses only air, so the compression ratio can be much higher. The higher the compression ratio, the more power is generated. Compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, diesels are more fuel efficient, and they can travel significantly farther on a tank of fuel than their gasoline counterparts.

Diesel engines produce more torque, and they tend to be more durable. They don't need an electric ignition system, which reduces their complexity. However, they also create more noise, they can be difficult to start in extremely cold weather and they sometimes require more frequent routine maintenance than gasoline engines.

ENGINE ASSEMBLY PROCESS

INDUSTRIAL REPORT

Thermax Limted, Pune

In this project, I observed the plant layout of ENGINE ASSEMBLY DEPARTMENT & ENGINE ASSEMBLY LINE. I have seen that the plant layout is process type that means the all processes are related to each other. For example: - the bearing shells are provided at CC-1 station & then the crank shaft is assembled at CC-2 station. During the training, I made different sheets of engine plant layout which shows every section of engine assembly that sheets are attached in this report. During my training some modifications are maid in the engine assembly line, where as the position of sub assembly stations are also changed for reducing the cycle time and reducing the various problems which occurs during the assembly.

Reasons of changing layout:More no. of movements of operator is required during assembly in previous plant layout. The cycle time of assembly is more in that so the required changes are maid to improve the productivity.

Effect In Production After Changing The Plant Layout: Cycle time is reduced. Movement of operator during assembly is minimized. Effective control over process.
