Maulik Patel, Executive Director, Sahajanand Laser Technology Ltd (SLTL) talks about various innovations that the company has brought into the market.

When we measure this into numbers, currently, Indian Auto part industry is growing with a CAGR of 11 percent. According to statistics, India will be the fourth highest steel manufacturer in the world by 2020. Automobile sector is also advancing considerably with 7.1 percent contribution in GDP. Along with that, the construction industry is earning second highest flow of FDI and improvising the infrastructure in the country.

These are the favourable conditions for increasing demand for laser machines and we anticipate the demand to grow in the coming future.

Please tell us about your manufacturing capability and capacity?

Harmony in manufacturing is our deepest belief that has led us towards immense accomplishments. We at our premises follow quality and process management approaches such as continuous improvement, 5s, and six sigma. SLTL spans into six manufacturing plants and has been acknowledged with ISO certification for total quality management across the facilities. The more accuracy in the process allows the incarnation of refined product which we have been practicing since decades. Moreover, SLTL's exploration is not restricted to an industry or two; instead, it is beyond the limits of the industry. So far, we have entered and marvelled verticals such as automotive, machine tools, electronics, jewellery, medical, micromachining and so on. The aforementioned list manifests the saga of our years of excellence across the globe.

SLTL brought the laser technology for the diamond industry and established the milestone for the world. The company has been actively contributing to the industrial development of India, ever since. SLTL's strength is its ingenious research and development department, through which the company has marked its presence as the world's largest manufacturer of CNC laser systems for the diamond industry.

As an endeavour to bring usability at ease, we came up with our in-house laser marking interface named ‘MARK PRO'.

R&D is an important aspect of a manufacturing unit. Can you please elaborate on your R&D efforts?

Highly experienced research scholars, laser specialists, engineers specialised in the fields of software, electrical, mechanical and instrumentation, etc. are amongst our R&D team members. All of them dedicatedly contribute in the organisational ambition of Excellence through Empowering Innovations. Following the legacy, SLTL's recent initiative focuses to uplift the metal forming process for the betterment. SLTL has launched sheet stacker and loading unloading machine in 2016 for the first time in India. As their names suggest, the machines set the metal forming works on incredible speed at the factories.

Rex is our latest in-house invention that is redefining the compactness in laser marking machines. With Adaptive Control System turns our laser machine immensely flexible and enable the flawless marking over any shape of the subject. The Laser head adapts to the shape and undertakes the marking process within seconds. The subtle Marking Machine REX comes with huge marking range that measures, 330 (X) × 330 (Y) × 50 (Z) mm. The significantly wide range comes really helpful while marking large objects, where it effectively executes the laser marking and proves to be extremely productive.

Please tell us about the company's exports.
The company exports to over 21 countries including Indian subcontinent, South East Asia, Middle East, Russia, China, Europe, USA, Canada, and Latin America. Apart from main line of businesses, technical enlightenment is what we believe in, thus we extend our knowledge to the scientific research institutes regardless of location and ownership.
