Hytech CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing System) is designed to provide hands on experience on latest manufacturing technology to participants. There are two options / layouts from which customers can choose their optimum system.

Individual machines / equipment such as CNC Turning Center, CNC Milling Center, Industrial 6 Axes Robot, Automated Guided Vehicle, Gantry, PLC, HMI, SCADA, ASRS, 3D Factory design and Simulation software can be used by First year as well as second year students.

Entire system in integrated mode can be operated by third years / last year students.

CIM system also comes with an option of ‘CAD-CAM EXPERT’ module where students can learn and practice CNC technology right from the scratch. Details of this additional module are explained after layout 2 details. ‘CAD-CAM EXPERT’ module can be included in any of the 2 CIM layouts.
