Generating Electricity Through Heat (2017)

One of our earliest R&D projects marked a significant milestone: successfully generating electricity from heat. The red light in the picture symbolises a source of pride and accomplishment, signalling our ability to harness energy effectively. This achievement fuelled our sense of purpose and became an example of our commitment to innovation and sustainability. Being able to charge our mobile phones with renewable energy served as a powerful reminder of the impact of our work and inspired us to keep pushing forward in our journey.

Generating Electricity Through Array Of Solar Panels And Blimp (2020)

Collaborating with scientists from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy in New Delhi, we embarked on a project aimed at power generation. Our prototype underwent rigorous observation and study for a month, with our work meticulously monitored. The outcomes were remarkably promising, demonstrating our ability to generate 1kW of energy within a compact 2 square metre area, surpassing traditional methods. In recognition of our innovation, we proceeded to file a patent for this groundbreaking technology.

Design a CNC machine for in-house requirement

Challenges like cost constraints or limited availability of machinery create an opportunity to find innovative solutions to meet in-house needs. While facing such a challenge, we designed a prototype of a CNC machine tailored to our specific requirements. This initiative addressed our internal needs along with positioning us to serve others more effectively. The resulting machine was cost-effective, user-friendly, easy to maintain, reflecting our commitment to delivering practical, user-centred, and efficient solutions.

Surface Preparation Robot

Our Robotic innovations represent a significant extension of the services we offer in surface preparation for tanks and vessels. Recognising the need for innovative robotic solutions in this sector, we embarked on designing and manufacturing a robot that meets industry standards of safety and offers cost-effectiveness. As Indians, we perfectly understand the need for cost-effective and feasible solutions due to our culture of focusing on optimisation and avoiding wastage of resources. By leveraging our expertise and understanding of the need gaps, we have developed a system that streamlines surface preparation processes and ensures relevance to the needs of our clients.
