Mechanical Engineering Students attend ‘Auto Tour’ at Germany

Chitkara Students went for an “Aauto Tour” in Germany. It was an amazing journey, which every student yearns for, in University life. The entourage had a great itinerary ranging from arrival at Frankfurt Central Station to visit to Volkswagen Transparent Factory, Dresden, which is one of its kind automobile factory, situated in the center of a city.

The main purpose of the factory is the assembly of Volkswagen’s luxury sedan, the Phaeton. Spare capacity was also used to construct Bentley Continental Flying Spur vehicles destined for the European market until 2006

Students also got the chance to witness production of Bentley Continental flying spur and Volkswagen Phaeton. Our privileged Partners Technische Universität Chemnitz hosted cultural evening for the students.

The visitor attractions, designed by award winning experience designer Bob Rogers (designer) and the design team BRC Imagination Arts, include Vision World, a multimedia “global theater” that allows visitors to take the pulse of the planet in real time.

Apart from this, our students got to see the Virtual Test drive, featuring a real VW Phaeton combined with motion base technology and computer generated scenery; a computer-based Car Configurator that enables visitors to design the VW Phaeton of their dreams; an interactive Techwall explaining the workings of the Phaeton’s “infotainment” system; a Virtual Production Tour.

Students visited TU Chemnitz, and were a part of expert Lecture on ‘Sports Equipment’s Engineering’, and also visited their World Class Laboratories.

It was an once-in-a-lifetime experience for our students and they have learnt a great deal from this experience.
