Abstract:
The report describes my six weeks experience and technical activities performed at APC
Factory HIT.
The report comprises of Detailed study and modeling of the armored Cover Plate for the
fuel cell of Armored Personnel Carrier Vehicle SAAD manufactured at the APC
manufacturing facility Heavy Industries Taxila. The plate model was generated using Pro
Engineer Software, Creo Parametric 2.0 available in the CAD/CAM section of Factory.
Acknowledgement:
My internship at APC Factory gave me a golden opportunity for learning and self
development. I consider myself very lucky and honored to have so many wonderful people to
lead me in this whole session.
My grateful thanks to Honorable Lt. Col. Shafqat Hussain, who allowed me six weeks
internship here, I also want to say thanks to Respected Maj. Muhammad Shoaib Qazi, who
in spite of being extraordinarily busy with his duties, took time out to hear, guide and keep
me on the correct path. A humble Thank you sir!
Last but not the least I also want to say thanks to the my dear instructors
AWM Mr. Mian Abdul Hafeez, AFM Mr. Muhammad Sarfraz, AFM Mr. Dawood Khan &
HS-I Mr. Mahfooz-ul-Haq who equipped me with technical knowledge and shared valuable
information that helped me so much in the whole session and will help me in the future.
Introduction to HIT:
Heavy Industries or (HIT) Taxila lies 35 km north-west of Rawalpindi/
Islamabad. Heavy Industries Taxila (HIT) is a manufacturing facility which has
built the Main Battle Tank Al-Khalid", Armoured Personel Careers, Al-Zarar
Tank. Heavy Industries Taxila formerly known as Heavy Rebuild Factory (HRF)
was established in Taxila in the late seventies to undertake rebuild and modernization of
Chinese tanks. Heavy Rebuild Factory (HRF) was renamed to Heavy Industries Taxila (HIT)
in September 1992. Now HIT consists of six major military factories. Activities of HIT now
include the cost effective manufacture of armoured fighting vehicles, armoured personnel
carriers and tank guns.
Facilities:
Heavy Industries Taxila comprises various defense factories and facilities:
APC Factory
The M113 Family of vehicles are manufactured in this factory using CNC machines
CAD/CAM system and manufacturing technology on MIG and TIG aluminum welding,
radiographic inspection, chemical cleaning, coating and painting according to military
specifications.
Gun Factory
The Gun factory has the capability of machining barrels ranging from 105 mm to 203 mm
caliber. It manufactures 105mm gun barrels for upgraded T-59 & T-69 tanks. Each barrel is
auto-frottage and subjected to high precision work on state of the art machines.
Tank Factory
Tank Factory is equipped with modern manufacturing facilities, including 7-axis CNC
machines, for flexible heavy-duty machining operations and a complete infrastructure for hull
and turret manufacture.
This production facility has been established to provide engineering support to all the
factories of HIT. Equipped with CNC machines, it undertakes manufacture of components,
assemblies, tools, dies, gauges and arranges development of spare parts through the vendor
industry. It also provides repair and maintenance support to machinery and equipment
installed in HIT.
Mechanical Complex
This complex manufactures sugar plants, cement plants, boilers, cranes, road construction
machinery, brick-making machinery and other equipment to cater for the needs of Railways
and other civilian organizations.

By using Creo Parametric 2.0 fuel cells cover plate was modeled. This helped us to
understand drawing reading concepts from paper. We translated the dimension readings from
paper and then drew the model according to the dimensions given in the drawing sheet. A
separate drawing sheet was also generated using Auto Cad 2007. The model from Pro
Engineer was imported into Auto Cad.
A projected force momentum was applied at 10mm above in Y-axis from the center of plate.
The results for deformation produces in the plate and stress were observed. The values of
deformation stress were in range of safe design as proved by Von Mises theory. Following
are the graphics attached from FEA Analysis. Ansys 14.0 software package was used for the
analysis purposes.
Observations:
The model of plate was generated on pro engineer and then analyzed using Ansys 14.0
software. The results were very satisfactory and the plate showed a very little deformation on
the impact of bullet striking. This confirms that the plate manufactured have a high factor of
safety and is reliable.
