At the National Maritime Defence Dialogue โ€“ Sagar Sankalp: Reclaiming Indiaโ€™s Maritime Glory, held on March 6, 2026 at ITC Royal Bengal, Kolkata, the Technology Innovation Hub (IIT Guwahati), proudly demonstrated a breakthrough in additive manufacturing for maritime applications.

In the esteemed presence of Honโ€™ble Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, TIH showcased a 500 mm long aerofoil-shaped helical turbine blade with a 90ยฐ twist angle, a highly complex geometry that highlights the power of advanced manufacturing.

Why this innovation matters:
- Conventional machining of such a component would result in nearly 320 kg of material loss
- Using additive manufacturing, the blade was fabricated with minimal waste
- The design incorporates a hollow internal structure, significantly reducing weight while improving efficiency and performance
- This innovation reflects how next-generation manufacturing technologies can drive sustainability, cost efficiency, and high-performance solutions in the maritime and defence sectors.

As India moves towards strengthening its maritime capabilities, such advancements reaffirm TIH IIT Guwahatiโ€™s commitment to indigenous innovation and technological excellence.

On 24th October, IIT Guwahatiโ€™s Technology Innovation Hub (TIH) hosted a milestone event in underwater technology with the Department of Science & Technology (DST) Review Meeting. Among the highlights was a proud moment for allโ€”the ceremonial certification of two divers who successfully completed TIHโ€™s specialized Underwater Welding Course. ๐ŸŽ“โš“

This program, a collaborative effort between TIH, IIT Guwahati, the Indian Register of Shipping (IRS), and Neel Diving School in Cochin, empowers divers with essential underwater welding skills, a vital asset for India's growing maritime and coastal infrastructure. These newly certified professionals are set to drive forward our capabilities in offshore maintenance and underwater operations, contributing significantly to India's maritime resilience and self-reliance. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ

A huge congratulations to these divers, and gratitude to our partners and dedicated team at TIH for making this vision a reality. By setting new standards in underwater training, weโ€™re reinforcing Indiaโ€™s expertise in the maritime sector and building a skilled workforce ready to meet the unique challenges of underwater engineering. Hereโ€™s to many more skilled professionals, national benchmarks, and technological advancements on the horizon!
