APS Department of Dronacharya College of Engineering, Gurugram, organized an industrial visit to Yakult Danone India Pvt. Ltd. on 26th February 2026 for the B. Tech First Year students. Approximately 150 students enthusiastically participated in the visit, accompanied by three faculty members - Prof. Pankaj Kumari, Dr. Sakshi Gupta, and Dr. Kavery Verma. The primary objective of the visit was to provide students with practical exposure to real-time industrial environments and to help them understand the integration of automation, machinery, and quality control systems in large-scale manufacturing units.
The visit began with an informative session conducted by the company representatives, who introduced the history, mission, and operational framework of Yakult Danone India Pvt. Ltd., a leading probiotic beverage manufacturing company. Following the introduction, students were taken to the production and machinery sections, where they observed the complete manufacturing process in a systematic and organized manner. They witnessed the automated bottle manufacturing system, high-speed liquid filling and sealing machines, advanced packaging units, and conveyor belt systems that ensured smooth product movement across different stages of production. The plant’s operations demonstrated minimal manual intervention, highlighting the extensive implementation of industrial automation and precision-based technology.
During the tour, the technical team explained the functioning of sophisticated machinery, the application of sensors and monitoring systems, and the stringent hygiene protocols maintained within the facility. Students also learned about temperature-controlled storage systems and the importance of maintaining contamination-free environments in food processing industries. The quality control laboratory was introduced, where rigorous testing procedures are conducted to ensure product safety and adherence to international standards.
The industrial visit proved to be highly beneficial as it effectively bridged the gap between theoretical classroom learning and practical industrial applications. It enhanced students’ understanding of automation systems, workflow optimization, industrial safety measures, and process management. The students were able to relate computer science concepts such as system monitoring, data handling, and process control to real-world industrial practices.
Overall, the industrial visit was informative, well-coordinated, and highly enriching for all participants. The visit successfully provided students with valuable exposure to advanced manufacturing processes and industrial automation systems at Yakult Danone India Pvt. Ltd., strengthening their practical understanding of real-world industrial operations. It proved to be a meaningful learning experience that effectively complemented their academic curriculum.
