The CSIR-National Metallurgical Laboratory in Jamshedpur took a significant step toward strengthening local industries by organizing a specialized workshop on Wednesday. The event focused on corrosion and wear-resistant coating technology, specifically designed for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and allied industries.
Enhancing Technical Capabilities for MSMEs
This comprehensive program aimed to boost awareness, technical knowledge, and skill development among professionals working in MSME and allied sectors. The workshop delved into the critical field of advanced surface engineering and protective coating technologies, providing participants with practical insights that can be immediately applied in their industrial operations.
According to an official press release from NML, the workshop attracted more than 35 participants representing various MSMEs and industrial bodies. The strong turnout demonstrated the growing interest and need for such technical knowledge within the industrial community.
Practical Insights for Industrial Applications
The workshop provided valuable, actionable information on multiple aspects of coating technology. Participants gained expertise in coating techniques, material selection, performance evaluation, and industrial applications. These skills are crucial for extending component lifespan and improving overall reliability in manufacturing and industrial processes.
By focusing on protective coating technologies, the workshop addressed a common challenge faced by many industries: how to protect equipment and components from degradation due to corrosion and wear. The knowledge shared during the session enables businesses to reduce maintenance costs and enhance operational efficiency.
Strengthening Local Industrial Ecosystem
This initiative by CSIR-NML represents a meaningful effort to bridge the gap between research institutions and industry practitioners. By sharing advanced technological knowledge with MSMEs, the laboratory contributes to building a more robust and competitive industrial ecosystem in the Kolhan region and beyond.
The workshop's focus on surface engineering and coating technologies aligns with the broader goals of improving manufacturing quality and sustainability. Participants left better equipped to implement solutions that can significantly impact their production processes and product quality.
