1.???Career FIRST
Career is the primary concern of the educated youth and more than a million opt for engineering in India. Travelling from Ashram crossing in Delhi to Noida via DND flyway, there were half a dozen hoardings displaying achievers of Rs 1.5 to 3.0 Crore annual packages.
These are to attract admissions, but what’s the percentage of super package recipients? Full page advertisements in print give figures for the percent placed, and highest package, but why don’t they talk of 100% placement, with minimum package, may be Rs 3.0 to 5.0 Lakh only. Managing Un-Employment is more important than the highest package.
Hundred percent engagement means industry placements, self-employment, and those opting for higher education. This could be a reality, provided individuals are made to participate in the process from day-one.
Training is the tool that even individual may learn to use effectively. Among several factors, the knowledge of industry is one that Udyog Sanchetana has been trying to make available and Airbus is the industry of the month.?
1.???Airbus – the Aviation Giant
How could Airbus?become leader in design, manufacturing, delivering aerospace products, services and solutions globally – in commercial aircraft, helicopters, defence, space and security, over a span of 50-years? Surprisingly, in world ranking for the year 2021, its next only to Lockheed Martin that has completed over a century and has weaponry, naval products as well in its portfolio.
The Trailblazing PIONEERS
Ludwig B?lkow an innovator of the aeronautical industry in Germany, created the B?lkow GmbH in Ottobrunn, which developed into the biggest aeronautics and spaceflight company MBB (Messerschmitt-B?lkow-Blohm), an aerospace manufacturer that was later bought by Deutsche Aerospace AG, now part of Airbus.
The COMPANY
Airbus SE?is a European multinational with manufacturing facilities across France, Germany, Spain, and other European countries, besides US, UK, Canada, China etc. It designs, manufactures and sells civil and military aerospace products worldwide. The company has three divisions:?
The third being the largest in terms of revenue and turbine helicopter deliveries.?According to Wikipedia, as of 2019, Airbus was the world's largest airliner manufacturer.
The 'SE' in its corporate name means it is a?societas Europaea, which enables it to be registered as a European rather than a national corporation. Its shares are traded in France, Germany and Spain. The Consolidated revenues for 6 months ending 30th June 2022 totaled € 24.8 billion.
Each decade in the history of Airbus has been given a title to display its VISION and Achievements. Depicted beautifully, one should better visit the website to learn about developments.

Innovation – the Secret of Growth
Zero-emission is one of the broad missions, wherein Airbus is developing, building and testing alternative-propulsion systems – powered by electric, hydrogen and/or solar technology – to enable the aviation industry to disruptively reduce the CO2 emissions of commercial aircraft, helicopters, satellites and future urban air mobility vehicles. Visit Zero emission | Airbus for details.
Future materials are the subject, we would like to highlight. Why an aviation industry is focusing on Material Science? But it’s going to benefit many domains of human activity across engineering industry. Future materials must be more durable, lightweight and cost-effective than ever before and Airbus is exploring the potential of tomorrow’s materials with a focus on sustainability, multi-functionality and digitalisation.
Over the last few decades, the aerospace industry has pioneered in adopting a wide range of materials to support the development of advanced aerospace concepts. These include metals, composites, ceramics, coatings and associated processes. The future focus is on the following priorities:
Natural fibres: These fibres can be obtained from animals, plants or minerals. Due to their lightweight and high-strength properties, they could be used in bio-composites for a variety of applications, including secondary, non-critical aircraft structures. Research areas include basalt fibres, spider silk, bamboo, flax and their processing routines.
Biomass carbon fibre: These fibres are created by carbonising precursors obtained from biomass derived from raw materials. Their use in bio-composites could result in carbon-negative composite materials that provide an alternative to carbon fibres obtained from oil-based precursors. Research areas include algae.
Bio-sourced resins: These resins derive some or all of their constituent monomers from biological sources (i.e., sugar cane, lignin). Their use could provide an alternative to phenolics in aircraft. Research areas include furan, epoxy and polyamide.
Careers in Airbus
The exponential growth in Aviation sector involves not only aircraft for passenger, goods and fighter jets, even helicopters, drones, and spacecrafts are opening new avenues and career opportunities. Most important is to KNOW industry. Manufacturing in multiple domains has tremendous future that should not be ignored.
Second advice, each branch of engineering has potential, but we should know how to prepare and get connected. A book “i-Career” has attempted to give tips that most of us are quite aware of, but don’t try. Here, forget not to visit Airbus Careers | Airbus and Internship in Spain | Airbus
The knowledge, a component of Training is vast. Keep learning about industry through FREE, monthly, eNewsletter in Hindi or English, but forget not to share knowledge with coming generations.
3.? Innovation – Parali to Plywood
The family of B L Bengani, moved to Kolkata in 1972, where his father worked in a Jute mill. In order to support family, BL joined as office boy in a company at a salary of Rs 100/- per month, but he continued studies in evening college and completed B Com.
Started career as accountant and got an opportunity for marketing in plywood company. With an urge for own business, BL started with marketing of imported boards in 1997 and set up own manufacturing in 2001, where his son joined after Engineering degree from Anna University.?
He divested his controlling stake in Uniply in the year 2015-16 and ventured a new Startup that produced Natural Fibre Composite (NFC) Boards using natural fibre, agri-waste and a binder additive. The traditional plywood industry makes use of wood from trees, Benganis made use of Parali, the stubs leftover in fields after harvesting paddy.
It was a mission ‘Waste to Wealth’, a beneficial alternative to burning the waste in fields, giving additional income to farmers. ?
Varun Bengani, a Mechanical Engineer from Anna University, had served with Uniply Industries Ltd during 2010-2016 and was actively involved in the new startup by his father. ?????????????https://www.indowud.com
Parali to Ethanol
The 2nd generation (2G) ethanol plant of Indian Oil Corporation was dedicated to nation by PM Narendra Modi in August 2022 at Panipat in Haryana. It will prove game-changer to deal with the problem of stubble burning in fields. The plant will generate around 3 crore litre ethanol annually by utilising about 2 lakh ton of crop waste. ?The plant will convert rice straw into ethanol, a renewable fuel, serving the dual purpose of discouraging stubble burning while also providing returns to farmers for their agricultural waste.
