IES Laboratory for Engineering Tests and Validations
Sir C V Raman Center for Engineering Tests and Validation is a fully equipped laboratory with a dedicated wing for embedded solutions. The Objective of the laboratory is to strengthen and benchmark our capability in validating designs. Functional and reliability tests are conducted to meet the design requirements of the products on specially built prototypes. This gives Mahindra Satyam associates an opportunity to understand the fundamental concepts related to product and systems.
The IES lab has 6000 sq. feet work area. It is equipped with Environmental chamber for thermal and cold testing, Pneumatic compressor (10 HP), Pneumatic and Hydraulic kit, Strain gauge setup, Air Blower Test Rig, Data logging equipments, Measuring instruments, Tear down facilities, Drilling and Welding machines and general purpose tools .

Typical activities carried out at IES Laboratory:
Validating design assumptions / calculations
Associates perform theoretical calculations by considering certain assumptions while designing the parts. They validate the designs against theoretical calculations with the help of prototype parts.
Validating design feasibility
Associates design the components and build the prototype parts with the help of local suppliers. They validate designs with the help of different test setup's & equipments like Thermal chamber, Environmental chamber, dial indicators, Force gauges and strain gauges etc,.
Reliability testing
Building reliability testing fixtures with the help of local suppliers and perform the reliability life testing for different type of components. Till date we build 40+ reliability fixtures.
Tear down activity
Tear down activity for comparing the competitor’s models to understand the system and for value engineering.
Fluid mechanics studies
Perform the experimental flow analysis on small models using wind tunnel test rig. Measure the performance of the compressor under various operating conditions. Predict the performance of the blower with backward/forward and radial vanes.
Embedded Laboratory:
The Embedded Laboratory is fully equipped to cater the embedded and automation domains. One can simulate here the real life conditions, in order to test the features, functionalities and performance of application before implementing at site. It has various design, development and debugging tools to carry out embedded development which involves hardware design from concept to prototype, HMI design, firmware development, V &V
On the process automation side, it is equipped with various process automation hardware - Programmable Logic Controller, Data Acquisition System, software - Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, Historians, OPC, Process modeling and simulation tools (Discrete event simulation). |
