School of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, (SMME), Islamabad

School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering

The School of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering (SMME) has been established to prepare human resource with essential skills in Mechanical Engineering and related discipline. Its areas of specialisation include manufacturing, automobile and power/energy sector so as to prepare its graduates to perform effectively in the technological world. Though newly established, it has state-of-the-art laboratories related to mechanical and manufacturing fields. In addition, high-tech laboratories of Robotics and related areas have been developed. There is also a plan to develop a Manufacturing Resource Centre (MRC) in the near future. The School is running and undergraduate programme in Mechanical Engineering and MS leading to PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering and Design & Manufacturing Engineering (DME). The programmes have been developed to address a growing concern within industry that fresh graduates do not meet the expectations of todays corporate and industry leaders. It has been noted that the current graduates have little awareness of the actual state of the industry, its culture, and the complex interactive management and operating systems which are based on value-added effort, team performance and resultoriented leadership. The graduates of SMME are trained to assist the industry in its effort to meet the challenges posed by domestic and global competition. These graduates will have the knowledge of corporate culture, its internal and external competitive pressures, leadership qualities, team performance, and an expanded understanding of technologies required for industry for effective utilisation of human and financial resources.

SMME

The programmes are designed to inculcate the following attributes and skills in the students: The graduates will be able to design and conduct experiments, analyse data, use relevant tools/models and evaluate alternative mechanical/thermal/manufacturing system designs based on technical/non technical criteria. The graduates will be capable of providing leadership while working in a team, exhibiting a high degree of professionalism. They will be able to work in diverse environments and address multidisciplinary challenges. The graduates will have strong and critical understanding of moral values and professional ethics, with a passion for life-long learning and self-improvement. The graduates will have the ability to visualise and transform their innovation & creativity into practical form.

Other Collaborations Lubrizol USA

Lubrizol is an oil company mainly conducting research in the area of Engine Lubricants. SMME with its experienced faculty and state-of-the-art labs convinced Lubrizol for a joint project in the field of engine tribology. Lubrizol will provide the hardware for research on the OM646 engine, looking in detail at the effect of formulations on the tribological performance of engine valve train.

Student Support Services

A panel of faculty members is designated as advisors who are available to the students for career counselling. They also guide students and solve their problems related to university life.

Knowing the expertise of our faculty, strong links have been developed with BP/Castrol in the area of engine tribology. For research on cam/tappet interaction, BP/Castrol not only agreed to collaborate in this project but also agreed to donate a heavy-duty diesel engine valve-train test rig worth millions of rupees. Attracting an International oil giant for research collaboration is a great achievement for Pakistan.

Alliances and Partnerships

SMME is working closely with institutes and industries like HEC, ENERGEN, NED, National Instruments and other leading automotive and oil companies.

AKI Project
SMME

SMME project with Anwar Khawaja Industries (AKI) Sialkot has proposed a solution to the problem in Quality Control Production line. In order to ensure accuracy in circumference and roundness of footballs, AKI required a reliable, fast and low-cost solution. The annual production of AKI currently stands at 2.5 million balls for world famous brands like SELECT , DERBYSTAR . The solution satisfies FIFA inspected accuracy standards. FIFA requires the distance of any two measured points to be not more than 9.66 cm while our proposed solution takes measurements for points that are almost 4.3 cm apart.

Along with international companies, SMME is also closely working with and supporting local industries. One of the examples is the technical link developed with Millat Tractors. Knowing our expertise in the field of engines, Millat Tractors and SMME are working on a number of joint projects. This includes, development of engine blow-by monitoring system, real time oil consumption measurement system, designing of green engine test bed, etc.

Collaboration with National Instruments, USA

SMME has strong links with National Instruments (NI) USA and have conducted joint events/workshops. SMME is the only educational institute in Pakistan to have a certified National Instruments (USA) faculty, fulfilling one of the key requirements for creating National Instruments Academy in Pakistan. The school is in the process of purchasing state-ofthe art hardware and hopefully by the end of first quarter, SMME will become the first Institute in Pakistan to be National Instruments certified. The NI Academy programme combines face-to-face teaching with hands-on lab exercises, preparing students for their future careers by developing their skills in using visual programming language and acquisition systems created by National Instruments (USA).

MS Leading to PhD in Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering

The postgraduate programme of Robotics and Intelligent Machine Engineering (RIME) focuses on advanced level education and state-of-the-art research in the cutting edge-areas of:

Robotics & Automation Mechatronics Control Systems Engineering Machine Intelligence

Cognitive Robotics is widely expected to spearhead the upcoming technological revolution where robots and intelligent machines will become an integral part of everyday human life. Be it industrial automation, surgical robotics, household robotics or active prosthetic rehabilitation, Robotic technology is being introduced everywhere in order to assist humans in their everyday tasks. Moreover, recent developments in industry have led to more and more automation being introduced in operations ranging from simple to most complex ones. The programme is administered by the Department of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (R&AI) which houses dedicated laboratories for Robotics, Machine Vision, Control Systems, Industrial Automation, Electronics and Computer Aided Engineering whereas it is supported by other labs at the SMME including Rapid Prototyping (RP) and Computer Numerical Control (CNC), etc. which facilitate mechanical fabrication of indigenously designed robot prototypes. These laboratories are equipped both for research as well as teaching purposes including a variety of robotic arms, mobile robots, stereo-vision camera systems, robot designing kits, advanced microcontroller and controls instrumentation, pneumatic / hydraulic training workstations and circuit board fabrication facilities. They enable the students to get maximum practical exposure to a variety of modern-day robotic technology on a par with similar graduate programmes in other leading international universities. The Masters phase requires the students to complete 22 23 credit hours of theory and 1 2 credit hours of lab work. The students are to take up thesis in any of the related areas. The variety in equipment available at the department makes it possible for them to gather practical results for their experiments wherever required.
