Here at SME- PEC Chapter, we focus on inculcating the core aspects of manufacturing aligning itself with this rapidly changing industry. Our goal is to create a community of like-minded engineers and try to come up with a collective solution to various engineering problems while making fun-to do projects in order to learn via practical application.

Major Events done by the club:

Workshops: We try to provide hands on experience in multiple domains which form the core to any Manufacturing process by inviting Industry Leaders, promoters and by developing knowledge in a like-minded peer group. These workshops include- Machine Shop visits, Casting, Forging, Fabrication, Carpentry, Computer Aided Designing (CAD)/ Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), Industrial Robotics and other advanced processes/ technologies.
