Everyone keeps talking about how in India, people don't get engineering jobs easily but i'll be the only one to talk why.
Its like a cycle, if good things aren't made, it won't get popular...thus the company won't grow, thus less people gets employed....thus good things aren't made
Unless we have design and specs, handed to us in a plate, we make absolute s#!#
In india Since Jugaar tech rules....if you were to allow non engineers into this, sure, you'll see wack and weird new technology but all of them will be super unsafe and non durable.But most of them will be a copy of someone's project.
In-fact, the locally produced domestic electronics are exactly that. Even electronics that these guys repair, gets unsafe, cause they bypass all fuses, remove all decoupling caps if any one of the tantalums gets short, loose wires hand around in the breeze and no one gives a F#. Good thing, our houses are made of brick and don't burn down.
most of us are dishonest. We have a mantra that, if it could go bad and cause problems after warranty expires....its a good idea...(how the F did my font go red? I don't know, it happened after random keyboard mashing.)
Here are some examples of Sh!t we make-
-Transformers with wires who's insulation deteriorate into powder
-Door bells with solenoid that burns out in a second
-tank water level sensor that could electrify the whole city's plumbing if it gets short
-soldering irons that can and do blow up in your hands
-electronics that looks like a student projects and is as unsafe as one
-Led bulbs that blow themselves into peaces because of exploding caps
-Our injection moulding processes are sh##
-scams like power factor corrector, stupid (non)healing stuff
now to more onto the positive side...Here's stuff we make that work nicely-
-Electric vehicles from motorcycle parts
-retrofitting kits for automating manual machines, like hand crank sewing machines, riksha etc
-Computer peripherals, Our keyboards are the best....
-Good transformers (if you pay em the right amount and provide them with your own materials)
-dirt cheap electronics, like TVs,computers and mobile
-anything that was designed in a foreign country, gets copied here but at dirt cheap prices.
-aerospace and aviation equipment at dirt cheap prices
Funny that things like this make it to the mainstream media coverage-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZICaswopF8
