Being optimistic

By Swati Deshpande,

Added 15 January 2019

Sandesh Kumar, Sr. Manager, Doosan Machine Tools talks to The Machinist about the company’s expectations from IMTEX 2019.

How has been the least year for your company?
The year 2018 has been the most successful in the history of Doosan India (since 2008). We have shipped over 400 machines with over 500 machines booked. Due to our excellent product line-up of various types of machines & models customers have been able to pick & choose the machine as per their requirements. The reliability of our machines has also been a key factor in over 70% customers repeating the orders. Not to forget our Service network & support which have done a good job of keeping the customer machines up & running all through the year.

What are your expectations from 2019?
We expect the demand for CNC machines to continue upwards as India is now making a strong presence as precision engineering goods exporter on the global map. As technology is changing rapidly so is the demand. This situation is in turn benefitting the machine tool industry. As we say "Machine Tool is the Mother of all Industries" hold true for the manufacturing segment as a whole. There may be some slowdown due to political & other external factors, which may cause a
minor slowdown but overall we are still optimistic for 2019 & also for the future.
