ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
It is always a pleasure to remind the fine people in the Workshops for their
sincere guidance I received to uphold my practical as well as theoretical skills
in engineering.
Firstly I would like to thank our department HOD Mr.Rajendiran for giving me
the permission.
Secondly I would like to thank the General Manager of the unit who gave us the
valuable opportunity.
Then I would like to thank the honourable HRs of the manufacturing unit who
guided us in the training.
A paper is not enough for me to express the support and guidance I received
from them almost for all the work I did there.
Finally I apologize all other unnamed who helped me in various ways to have a
good training.
Knowledge is power and unity is strength.
Introduction:
Ashok Leyland is a commercial vehicle manufacturing company based in Chennai, India.
Founded in 1948, the company is one of India's leading manufacturers of commercial
vehicles, such as trucks and buses, as well as emergency and military vehicles. Operating six
plants, Ashok Leyland also makes spare parts and engines for industrial and marine
applications. It sells about 60,000 vehicles and about 7,000 engines annually. It is the second
largest commercial vehicle company in India in the medium and heavy commercial vehicle
(M&HCV) segment with a market share of 28% (200708). With passenger transportation
options ranging from 19 seater to 80 seater, Ashok Leyland is a market leader in the bus
segment. The company claims to carry over 60 million passengers a day, more people than
the entire Indian rail network. In the trucks segment Ashok Leyland primarily concentrates on
the 16 ton to 25 ton range of trucks. However Ashok Leyland has presence in the entire truck
range starting from 7.5 tons to 49 tons. The joint venture announced with Nissan Motors of
Japan would improve its presence in the Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment (<7.5
tons).
Shop III
The Shop III is a combination of Frame assembly, Sprockets Finishing, X-member
production and the hub finishing.
Frame Assembly:
Here the Frame Assembly is done. The chassis of the vehicle first step starts from here at this shop-3.
This assembly is divided into 9 stages. At first the sides frames are mounted for both sides
which are hold using the proper clamps. The frames of the vehicles are fixed together to be sent to the
chassis assembly. The skids are mounted on the conveyor belt and frame is placed on the skids. And frame
MTG on which engine is mounted is fixed across the two frames. On the rear end of the frame BKTS both
sides are aligned with taper pin. Fit and tight FSR and BKTS on both sides with dummy bolts. Tilt both the
FSMS to 90 degree by turning tackle and insert clamps. Tight and apply torque to engine MTG flinches and
M12 with bolts. Correspondingly in every stage each worker tight appropriate bolt to the frame before taken to
chassis assembly makes it a complete frame.
At present two types are made in more numbers. One is for commercial vehicles which is 9meters long. The
other is for heavy vehicles which is 12meters long. This heavy vehicle frame and chassis will be soon moved
to Neptune shop which is planned to construct. For each type of frames separate distinct connecting rods are
used. Thus at the end of the 9th stage the perfect frame will come to off track. These frames will be now moved
to the chassis assembly. These frames are important for the chassis, so it is built with the strong bolts.
Sprockets finishing:
The material needed to make the sprockets is outsourced as a moulded part. Then it has been
taken in to milling, grinding, drilling, surface finish, etc. to get the finished product of the
sprockets. There are many sprockets in this usage Leaf spring sprocket, engine mounting
sprocket, etc.
X-member production:
X-member is the connection made to fix both the side members in the place. The x-member is
the combination of gusset plate and the cross member.
The gusset plate is made by cutting sheet of required size and punching of holes in it by a
hydraulic press then making the bend by another hydraulic press. Then the gusset plate
riveted with the cross member to make the x-member.
Hub Finishing:
The hub is also like the sprockets, it has been outsourced as a moulded part then it has been
finished by various processes to get the finished hub.
SHOP IV:
The shop IV comprises of assembly of front and rear axles. The axle casing and the
differential unit of the rear axle were outsourced. The leaf springs, brake drums are assembled before
being attached to the main frame of the vehicle.
The rear axle will have more spring arrangements than the front axle.
Stage 1: Casing is fixed on the conveyor and axle shaft is removed.
Stage 2: Brake lining and 10 bolt and washer are fixed on the brake carrier with spring washer. Dustcover is
also fitted.
Stage 3: Brake nut and bolt are tighten and fitted 50 to 75 torque.
Stage 4: Ring for oil seal is fitted on the hub shim is fitted 3-6tau for the clearance flange cover is fitted with 4
bolts.
Stage 5: Inner oil seal is fitted on ring for inner oil seal. Inner wheel bearing is fitted.
Stage 6: Distance piece is fixed to align the inner and outer wheel bearing in the same axis.
Stage 7: Dry set, where the wheel hub is fixed roughly to verify whether to increase or decrease the height.
Stage 8: Wet set where grease is packed inside the wheel hub.
Stage 9: Axle tube nut is fixed with counter pin and bolt, 190 thou tightness. The given, studs are fixed in the
hub to fixed to the shaft. Grease nipple is fixed on the wheel hub.
Stage 10: Axle studs are tightened. Drum is fixed 8mm bolt is fitted.
Stage 11: Axle shaft is fitted using 8 spring washer and nut on the stud.
Stage 12: Complete assembly of rear axle is unloaded and taken to chassis assembly.
Chassis Assembly:
The chassis assembly is the last part of a production plant. Here all the parts from other shops
are assembled to make a vehicle. In this Ashok Leyland plant there has been two conveyers, a
new one and an old one.
Old Conveyer:
The old conveyer is also the same process as like the new conveyer. But the new conveyer
has been technologically developed.
New conveyer:
Shop II
This shop comprises of machining of various engine parts and assembly of marine engines.
The engine which has high torque and rpm are used in marines. Rectification of engines is
also done here. They use the normal man driven machines. Both 4 and 6 cylinder engines are
made.
As most of the machines in this shop are very old model also they are not maintained
properly they will consume more power than usual. This will increase the cost of operating
machines.
Engine assembly:
Engine assembly is done by fitting the below components. Their functions we learnt are also
given below
Stage 1: Cam bearing
After the arrival of cylinder block cam bearing is fitted. It is used for reducing
the friction in the chain drived cam shaft
Stage 2: Cam shaft
Cam shaft is the cylinder rod with projections called cam lobes. Cam lobes are
responsible for opening the inlet and exhaust valves periodically.
Stage 3: Crank shaft/ crank assembly
Next is the assembly of crank shaft. Crank shaft is the power transmitting
agent to the flywheel. It is fitted with connecting rod and the flywheel.
Stage 4: Stud (M-14)
Then the stud bolt is fitted
Stage 5:
Flywheel
Flywheel is the larger circular disc attached to the crank shaft to produce
uniform torque.
Oil pump
Oil pump is the part of engine lubricating system which provides oil to the
parts of engine by various actions.
Stage 9: Piston
Next is the fitting of the piston which is the energy converting agent which
converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. It is cylindrical in shape
which travels between top dead centre and bottom dead centre.
Stage 10: Connecting rod bolt
Then the connecting rod is fixed. It is the agent which drives the crank shaft.
Stage 11: Idler gear
The gear which switches the idling condition is idler gear
Stage 12: Cylinder head
Then the cylinder heads with the valves are fitted.
Stage 13: Sump
Sump is the bottommost part of the engine which contains the lubricating oil
which can be taken up by connecting rod`s motion.
Stage 14: Rocker Arm
Rocker is the important arm which holds the inlet and exhaust valves.
Stage 15: Air compressor
It compresses the air and let it into the inlet manifold
Stage 16: Fuel injector pump
This pump injects the fuel from the tank to the engine.
Stage 17: Valve cover
Rocker covers are also called valve covers. It covers the rocker arm.
Stage 18: Oil cooler
Then the oil cooler is fixed. It cools the lubricating oil
Stage 19: Injector pipe
It is a double walled pipe which injects the fuel in diesel engines
Conclusion:
The profit of an organization entirely depends on the way the
top chairs manage the Resources the organization has.
Whatever the other aspects may be, it was seen that managing
human resource was extremely difficult. The stability or the
sustainability of the Organization mostly depends on this
factor.
On the other hand, it was prominently seen that thinking
should precede doing. In most cases It could be seen that there
exists easier or better ways to do something. As far as the
above mentioned factor is considered, continuous knowledge
mining followed by experience in a cycle upholds the entire
system in every aspect.
