Department of Computer Engineering
Report On Industrial Visit To
Jaipur (2017-2018)
Objective:
The industrial visit is intended to provide students of Computer Engineering with required
exposure to the working environment and practical knowledge. The motive is to learn and supplement
the class room teaching.
Companies Visited: 1) My FM 94.3 Radio Station
2) Dainik Bhaskar Printing Press
3) Saras Jaipur Dairy
Duration: 11 Days (From 26.12.2013 to 05.01.2014)
Number of Students participated: 55 Students.
Date of Visit: 28th December, 2017 - 1st January, 2018
Faculty & Staff members accompanied: Dr. Satish Y.Ket ,Prof.PriyaParate,Prof.ShilpaJadhao
Outcome of the visit:
Industrial visit was carried out from 28th December, 2017 to 1st January, 2018 for Computer
Engineering Students. The main objective behind the visit was to make the students aware about how
the computers are used in different industries. Three different industries were chosen to show the
widespread and different uses of computers. The industries were selectively chosen so that the students
could relate and understand the major role played by each one of them.
1) FM 94.3’s Radio Station
The first industry we visited was FM 94.3’s Radio Station, which is located in the heart of
Jaipur city.After reaching the facility students were greeted and guided by one of the producers of the
station. We always imagined that a radio station would be a small office with minimal workforce and
efforts required but it was great to see and know that it is not true. The building was quite big and had
many sections and cubicles where people were working. We were briefed about the whole process of
recording the shows to listening it on our radios. We then visited the recording studio where a show
was on air live. It was a small soundproof room so that there is no disturbance. The radio jockey
greeted us and briefed us about her workstation. There was a computer in which the jockey had around
5000 songs and with the help of which all other processes were synchronised. So whenever the listener
demanded a song to be played, the jockey would select the song from her computer and put the
necessary settings and play the song on air. The main area of interest was the Operating System used in
that computer. It was named Zeta. It is developed by the company yellowTAB based in Germany. Zeta
was built for digital media work and is written to take advantage of modern hardware facilities such as
symmetric multiprocessing by utilizing modular I/O bandwidth, pervasive multithreading and
preemptive multitasking. It is one of the most dependable O.S available and not error and crash prone.
The jockey demonstrated the use of this O.S and also interacted with our students on air in the studio.
Next we went to other section which keeps everything going over the air without a fault. It was the
technical section. Engineers were busy here looking after numbers machines. They synchronised the
shows. The transmitters work faultlessly because of these people.
The visit concluded with an interactive session for the students, where they got an opportunity
to interact with the concerned authorities and gain more knowledge. It was a great learning experience
for one and all.

2) DainikBhaskar Printing Press :
The second industry we visited was DainikBhaskar Printing Press which was located on the
outskirts of Jaipur. Students were divided into two groups. Each group was guided by a supervisor of
the press. The supervisors explained how the Indian press has evolved from the ancient to the modern
age. Initially, the editor used to write the edited article , which was then sent to the press, which was a
slow printing process. Today, the article is typed in the computer, stored in PDF file and printed by
automated machines, which is a very fast process. The students were shown how actually the paper
passed from one machine to another, how various colours were integrated and the papers getting ready
within no time. 40,000 copies were delivered per hour.
The supervisor then explained how computers affected the printing industry. He briefed us
about how one can scan transparencies and reflective media into the system with accurate color, and
hand off to the print shop plate-ready electronic files. One can even send these over a network. Once
the printer has checked (preflighted) these files, he/she can impose them and directly expose full eight-
page flats. So with the help of computers, these files no longer need to be printed to film as an
intermediate step. It is possible to image directly to plate.
Infact he said, Computers run the presses now. An operator can automatically hang the plates
and preset ink fountains based on computer profiles, drastically reducing waste and make-ready time.
Once the paper is running on press, computers provide feedback and then self-correct to ensure the
mechanical accuracy of the job.So in every area from controlling ink and color fidelity to making sure
the mechanics of the process run smoothly, computers play an increasing role. The influence of
computers started in writing, moved to design and then prepress, and then moved to press work. Now
computer automation and control are gradually migrating to the finishing processes.
The supervisor pointed out that, “Printing is an art and a craft, not a commodity. I consider
the computer to be nothing more or less than a tool used by skilled artisans to facilitate the
production of quality presswork. ”
Afterwards, the students were taken to have a live experience of the newspaper printing and
were given an opportunity to take a tour around the working printing press. The students got an
opportunity to see the newspaper under printing. The visit was quite successful as the students were
enlightened and practical exposure about the particularities of the print world.
3) Saras Jaipur Dairy
Our next Industrial Visit was Saras Jaipur Dairy (popularly called as Jaipur Dairy).
It is one of the largest dairy factories located in the heart of Jaipur. The students were then escorted by
an official from the dairy who then briefed us about the history of the dairy plant and the functioning of
the milk and other dairy products from the raw materials. Students were taken into the plant where milk
was being manufactured from the raw one. The information regarding the capacity of huge tanks and
the milk content in it was displayed on a computer screen inside a small room. The packaging units and
the machinery were all automated and controlled by computers.
Having done with the tour, fresh ice-cream from the dairy was served to the students and teachers.
Apart from this AmerFort , City Palace and JantarMantar were considered for sightseeing and
exploration. Amer or Amber Fort is located on a hill and students were taken there in an auto uptill the
entrance. The rich heritage and history was given by a tour guide inside the fort. JantarMantar was
another place which portrayed a classic example of detailed calculations and mathematics. The
temperature, time, day, zodiac signs everything was figured out way back in time.
Students at City Palace
Overall it was an informative, interesting and a successful visit. As students of Computer
Engineering, they understood live Software applications and importance of Computers in different
industries. We express our thanks to the professionals at the above visited industries who spent their
valuable time in imparting their broad spectrum of knowledge to the students.
