COINDIA initiates Training Centre
The Coimbatore Industrial Infrastructure Association (COINDIA) has started offering engineering software training to students and those working in the engineering units jointly with Richmond CAD solutions. According to the COINDIA chairman Mr G. Rajendran, the centre has been established at a cost of Rs 2.5 crores & is expected to train about 1000 students every year.
This facility has been created under the IIUS scheme of Ministry of Commmerce under which the cluster has received financial assistance from the Centre. The course duration will vary from 2 weeks to 12 weeks depending upon the option selected by trainee.
The courses will include on-the-job training and classroom sessions in CAD/CAM and CAE. The objective of the training programmes is to equip the participants with the skills and practical knowledge necessary to be part of a product development team. With the modern tool room facility supporting the training centre, COINDIA plans to extend design and development services to small and medium-scale units.
The cluster members can obtain the service at nominal fees to get the two dimensional drawings converted into 3-D models with the help of Rapid Proto typing & sand sintering machine which will help them to cut the response time greatly while developing new components.
