The advent of the CNC router has made manufacturing and production much simpler across a number of industries. The Automotive Industry has also benefited hugely by employing this advanced technology deemed to be amazing by both the students and faculty members of NID Gandhinagar. In fact, the industry has been pleasantly surprised to find the machine being able to handle complex geometric designs with ease that has resulted in manufacture of unique models that are both aesthetically pleasing as well as highly functional.

The high speed and 100% precision of the machine has made the top automobile companies of today increase its productivity by investing a lesser amount. This has, in turn, resulted in augmenting the production considerably making the Auto manufacturers laugh all the way to the bank. Indeed, the CNC router is now used at every stage right from designing to creating an automobile model or prototype just prior to going into production. The more mundane actions such as boring, drilling and cutting are now handled entirely by the computer numerical machines as well.

The ‘Transport and Automobile designing program’ offered by NIDs not only provide their students with a thorough understanding of the process but also supports the learning by giving access to the high-tech CNC and laser cutting machines so that the aspiring automobile engineers can face the entire real world armed with practical knowledge.

The major automotive companies today, both in India and outside, utilize the CNC machine for producing different auto parts as well as several external and internal components of their latest auto models. The CNC Automotive is most effectively utilized in the production of the engine cylinder where a block of aluminum is cut and shaped into the cylinder within minutes. Quality control and cost efficiency have been improved by the novel concept of introducing artificial intelligence within the CNC machines thereby making the Automotive Industry thrive today.
