THEORY OF MACHINES (313313) Practical No.01 Identification of Mechanisms in the different Laboratory and Institute premises
Understanding and identifying mechanisms in machines is crucial for multiple aspects of engineering, design, and maintenance. Knowing the mechanisms allows for accurate diagnosis of faults and failures. By identifying the mechanisms in a machine, engineers can optimize them for better performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Knowledge of existing mechanisms can
inspire new designs and innovations. Proper identification of mechanisms ensures that safety-critical components are designed and maintained correctly.
