Dr. Jayant Modak, a technical advisor at JD College of Engineering and Management, has developed a unique pedaling system that can be used to power a variety of machines, including a water pump, washing machine, saw machine, and grass cutter.
The system is based on a modified bicycle that has been fitted with a special pedaling mechanism. This mechanism allows the rider to pedal in a circular motion, which generates power that can be used to drive the machine.
The system has been successfully used to power a variety of machines, including a brick-making machine, a water pump, a wood saw, a washing machine, a grain grinder, and a grass cutter.
The system is particularly useful in areas where electricity is not readily available.
Dr. Modak has been working on the system for over 40 years. He has filed a patent for the system.
The system has been developed with the help of mechanical engineering students from JD College of Engineering and Management.
The system has been praised by experts for its simplicity, efficiency, and affordability.
The system is a significant achievement in the field of mechanical engineering.
It has the potential to make a significant impact on the lives of people in rural areas.
The system is a testament to the ingenuity and dedication of Dr. Jayant Modak and his team.
Achievement Summary
