RECENT
PROJECTS
In recent years the terms like improved manufacturing process, enhanced productivity, increased availability etc. have become synonymous with Control and Automation systems.
Some of our recent projects reflect a new trend in the manufacturing industry sector where the focus is not only on improving the manufacturing process, product quality as well as productivity but also on monitoring and improving the energy efficiency of machines thereby increasing the profitability by way of reduced energy costs.
