CENTRE FOR MACHINING AND MATERIALS TESTING (CMMT)
The Department of Mechanical Engineering is recognized as a Research Centre by Anna University, Chennai, for carrying out research work at Masters and Doctorate level.
Many students, at UG, PG and PhD level, use these facilities to do their final year and pre-final year project work.
The following facilities are available at CMMT lab of our department for consultancy projects. A nominal price has been fixed for the utilization of these facilities for carrying out research projects.
Objectives
- To facilitate quality research for students, academicians and researchers in the areas of Materials and Machining.
- Hands on training in preparing composite materials.
- To support research projects by providing assistance in both technical and practical aspects.
- To create general awareness among students about technical research in the areas of materials and machining.
- To establish a link between the Institute and Industries and provide technical assistance at large.
