Internships
Conceptual design of vehicle mounted laser system for standoff neutralization of explosive
hazards | Defense Research and development organization (DRDO)
May-June 27, 2017
Prepared a CAD model of TATA Safari Storm vx Varicor 400 on Solidworks, back seats are
removed to produce enough space for mounting the subsystems of laser ordnance disposal
system.
Calculated the minimum power to be delivered by laser for disposal of TNT equivalent (23 kg
TNT) of Suitcase bomb for a definite interval of time.
Mounted the LORDS system inside the vehicle by properly analyzing the factors like vibrations
of the generator, firing distance, heat transfer and thermal conduction ability of solid TNT.

Design of Doctoring machine | ITC ltd

May 2017
Designed a Doctoring Rewinding machine on 3D CAD tool and by making some
structural changes to make it function more smoothly.
Prepared a web-guide separately and then mounted it on the machine, used linear
motors to control the movement of web in more precise and accurate manner.
Improved its productivity by introducing multiple slitting tools and replaced the Belt
drive with gear box for more accurate control on rotational speed.
