The cutting tools industry is constantly progressing with the changing requirements of the business ecosystem. Especially, the pandemic aftermath has influenced portion of the manufacturing sector to shift units to India which has added further value to the Make in India movement by the Government. Native cutting tools manufacturers are set to grow businesses internationally with a lot of opportunities knocking at their doors.
BIPICO was established in November – 1974 and is proud of its more than four decades journey as a Hacksaw Blade manufacturing company to Bimetal Bandsaw & now Circular Saw. The company has grown into a major cutting tools manufacturer and exporter with a strong brand image in India and in International markets.
“For every industry, cutting the material is first and foremost job and thereafter all other machining of the part is possible. Bipico provides cutting solution to their customer as per their cutting needs. As cutting technology has changed over the period of time, Bipico introduced various types of cutting blades for the customer. In early 2000 it realised the Indian Industry requirement of
Bimetal Bandsaw blade which is useful for cutting the material accurately and with the great speed”, states Pramit Patel, Managing Director, Bipico Industries.
Living up to Expectations
After providing the products, the consistent service to the customer is a major challenge because the cutting operator and the labourers are not skilled or semi-skilled. Their machine maintenance is often not up to the mark and Bimetal Bandsaw machines are old and not upgraded hence to maintain the consistent performance of the blade is always challenging. The expectation of the client is always to get the cheapest cutting rate per component (cost per cut). They want the best service, the best price of the Bimetal Bandsaw blade and they also required good credit period from the supplier of these kinds of products.
“Bipico is the first indigenous manufacturer of this product and there are hardly 1 or 2 players who are manufacturing now in India this product. Otherwise all other brand available are global player and they don’t have manufacturing set up in India and hence their availability and services are not comparable with Bipico. We entered the industrial arena with humble beginning by manufacturing Hacksaw blades. Today, the company is synonymous with respect to quality Hacksaw blades & Bimetal Bandsaws which finds application in a variety of fields”, says Pramit.
