Motor), Compressor, PT(Pump-Turbine), Gear Boxes and other rotary
equipment.
• Wednesday Collected vibration data and entering it in to excel.
• Thursday This Include Calibrating it to measure peak values and
measuring Frequency at which it occurs by Fourier Transform.
• Friday Further analyzing and comparing it with standard ISO
10816 charts to check for any issue especially to avoid any possible
Resonance.
WEEK 3 (Date: 08/14/2023 to 07/21/23)

Additional Student Comments:
1. How well do you feel your goals were met and what major skills were improved?
I learnt a great deal at my one-month time at Fatima Fertilizer. I learnt about my
different departments and how they coordinate with one another to work as company.
As a mechanical Intern it was great learning experience to apply my theoretical
knowledge learnt in GIKI. My practical skills and communication skills were greatly
improved.
Do you have any suggestions for your supervisor/manager(s) and internship
program?
There should be more frequent visits to plant area.
