Hi This is

Abishek Kafle

Mechanical Engineer

Namaste

I am a Mechanical Enineer and a researcher. I am currently working as a research assistant in design lab, department of mechanical Engineering Kathmadu University. My core research area is 3D Printing, Desing and Manufacturing. I work with manufacturing and rapid prototyping tools like 3D printers and CNC machines. I am also working to develop a automated tool using python to develop 2D and 3D designs of hydro mechanical components in turbine
