Major Raw materials Utilised:

  • Standard materials commonly used for engineering product development, such as various categories of steel alloys, aluminum alloy, natural granite, etc. Standard components include workhead spindle, linear motors and drives, linear scale, micrometer, Vibration isolation system, hydraulic power pack, hydraulic valves, diamond tools, water chillers, Hair dryer systems, structural frames other mechanical electrical elements.

Major Plant Equipment and Machines required:

  • Ultra-precision micro machining Center, Wire cut EDM, Precision Turning and Milling Machine Precision Grinding Machine, Laser interferometer, Ultra precision dimension, form and surfaceroughness equipments.

Techno economics:

  • In India, these technologies are in huge demand for strategic sectors and other non strategic Industrial sectors. However, all the SPDT machines are being imported and large amount of high value machined components are being outsourced from abroad. No machine tool builder in India is building these machines and there are very few industries fabricating the diamond turn components in our country.
