1. There are quite a few Antenna mfrs... a) Excel radio frequency technologies pvt ltd Hyderabad b) verdant telemetry, Kochi c) ACD technologies,Hyd d) spectrum avionics, Kochi e) SAMEER Thanks, that was quite helpful. I could not find ACD technologies online. What kind of antenna does SAMEER make?...

csaurabh

Can you check if there are any companies in vehicle satellite antennas or even just antennas generally.

I have just submitted my application to this year's IDEX DISC-3 challenge. Keeping fingers crossed.

Ok, was just wondering what it was. Looks like some kind of inspection equipment.

Forget about 5G why are we not able to build simple routers, network switches and exchanges for ethernet and Wifi. We are currently importing all telecom equipment ( even simple ones ) from China. How can you expect companies with no experience in telecom tech development to suddenly transition to '...

India's online B2B market currently is just rubbish. The two best sites ( indiamart and industrybuying ) are so bad that sometimes it is easier to ship things directly from China by buying through Aliexpress.

Let us be realistic about it. NRC will motivate and increase BIF not the other way round. Ideas have limitations. Loyalty to Indian nation state and 'Hinduism' only works to a certain extent. If you keep putting people through trials and hardships ( especially if like Assam you have to trace back yo...

One must have one's ear to the ground and not be delusional. Modi govt is somewhat unpopular as it is. Asking people to constantly prove their citizenship would be immensely damaging. Far more than tolerating some illegals in the country, who may anyway go back when BD gets economically improved a b...

NRC would be wildly unpopular if implemented. I hope good sense prevails on this one.

It is very hard to innovate in PSU, simply because 90% of the people there simply laze around and collect money at the end of each month. If someone tries to do anything on his own it will be massively opposed, because it makes the others look bad. A large majority of Babus prioritize their own lazi...

So we are not going to manufacture high end stuff because our mfg ecosystem is quite low end and not up to the task.
And we are not going to manufacture low end stuff because we can import them cheaply from China.
Then what are we going to manufacture?

Relax. Tell us what the market is what composites are being made? Fabric, resin, type of composite. are there fabric weaving companies for net shape structures? Yes, Tulasi and Agnivastra. But they are handwoven ( ie. handloom ) to make preforms. Advanced machines for production of near net shape f...

But the big question is of Market. To prime the pump, GOI needs to provide the initial volume for a few years. Reliance can then foray in the global supply chain from there. Future prospects are good on paper. They would hold a monopoly on Indian market for time to come as entry barrier to this bus...

I haven't ever heard of Kemrock producing Carbon fibre in large quantities. At least no composite manufacturer I know uses them. Also to be noted that BPJs would probably need high grade phenolic resins, which are not made in India either. What is meant by Midhani making BPJ is probably that they ta...

Reliance Kemrock's carbon fiber mfg is still not operational as of September. It was discussed in INCCOM conference which I attended. Btw Kemrock's technology was developed by NAL. What I have heard is that the process works but it is not cost effective. Carbon composite heat shields are made in Ind...

India doesn''t produce any high end fibre. Not Carbon fiber nor aramids nor HDPE. These are typically imported from companies like Teijin (Japan ) Tales about Midhani making carbon fibre and such like have been circulating for years. I have talked to people actually working in the company and they s...

Not really, underwater ocean pressures are extremely high whereas space pressure is 0 ( vacuum ).

csaurabh

A good achievement, but I don't understand what deep sea exploration has to do with space technology?

csaurabh

your last few posts seem like you are just shooting in dark. Indian academia definitely has enough depth to deliver such technologies. It is not in academia's nature to be organized and focused on only certain things. They by nature tend to be explorers. Even a negative result is considered learnin...

That is a lie. Many of GTRE are Phd Engineers. But emphasis is on Research not on technology Oops. My bad. Anyway one more thing I wanted to point out is our constant and almost complete reliance on foreign engineering software. We think that manufacturing hardware is the only problem, but modern e...

So my question is what now? Can we wait for home ground tools industry to mature before we try again with a new engine? That sounds too far into the future. Should we just pony up the money to the French and bring in their M88 core to help us bridge the gap for now? Do we have a choice? Unless we a...

We will have to depend on foreign CNC machines and other tooling for now. But even if we to import those, we can still set up an manufacturing and testing infrastructure around the Kaveri no?

at this time it may be more viable to import stuff like LDS or PZTs than manufacturing here. just saying onlee. Forget about those, we don't even have good quality soldering iron in India, a technology over 100 yrs old. We import them from Weller's at 16000-25000 Rs. each. Even something as basic a...

One of the main things we don't pay attention to as a nation is machine, tooling and process development. We are concentrated on the final product onlee.. forgetting that the sophisticated machines that build the product are even greater challenges of engineering. Just for example I don't think the...

I am from IIST TVM

Hardly anyone pays attention to Umanities/Social science people. Lectures/seminars like that may be once in a year at most.
I would not read too much into it. Faculties are not at all from JNU ( except maybe Umanities type ).

The real issue is that there is no silver bullet. What's needed to make a fighter jet engine is decades of R&D & sustained billions. Nothing less. The Americans & Russians paid that price. The Chinese are willing to. We should too. There are no shortcuts. Was reading this excellent blog...

Teaching will be automated very soon. Forget about tier3, even IITs can't compete with actual professionals in their field teaching online. The only usefulness of the IIT system is networking, credentialing and branding ( No one goes there for 'education' ). Once the credentialing system can be repl...

It is registered. At the time of application we had not yet received dipp status, hence individual.
