Automotive component manufacturing market has been constantly evolving in India, and has been accounting for 2.3 percent of India’s GDP, while employing as many as 1.5 million people directly and indirectly. With constant focus on improving parts and process quality, automotive parts made in India are at par with any top manufacturer in the world. However, there is still a long way to go when it concerns the adoption of latest technologies across operations.
Though many companies have adopted newer technologies, yet a vast majority of companies are still working in traditional ways. Hence, a constant culture of learning and adopting new methods of manufacturing is required where IT and ITES are must; be it Industry 4.0, warehouse automation or innovation in shop floor practices.
Mehta Automotive has been constantly adopting latest technologies to give more value to its customer with faster response time. As a professionally managed company, they have been manufacturing and supplying high quality automotive parts to OEMs and Tier 1 companies in India and Europe. They bring in the much needed competency in manufacturing and supplying critical parts like engine mounting brackets, seat mounting brackets and other fabricated assemblies.
“Today, Mehta Automotive is the first choice for all its customers despite growing competition. Our expertise in different areas of manufacturing, be it pressings or specialized operations like Robotic welding and ED coating, helps our customers in getting trouble free supplies day after day. Our own tool design and manufacturing setup gives us and our customers’ confidence that all developments will be done on time and with desired specifications,” highlights Amit Mehta, Director at Mehta Automotive.
One-stop-shop
Mehta Automotive is among the first few companies to have a complete facility of tool design, tool development, hydraulic and pneumatic presses, robotic welding, ED coating and final assembly all under one roof. This has saved valuable time for the customers who had to deal with different companies to get all these facilities.
“Mehta Automotive has always invested in world class infrastructure. We have in-house complete tool design and development facility, Hydraulic and Pneumatic presses ranging upto 400 tons, best in class Welding Robots, a world class fully automatic ED coating plant. Apart from this, we have an excellent supplier base which includes Rubber and plastic parts manufacturers and job coaters for Powder coating and Zinc Plating,”
Core competency
Apart from its vast range of infrastructure, the company’s core strength lies in its robust team. They have a highly skilled team which gives them an edge in today’s competitive market who ensure customers' expectations are met to the fullest when it concerns quality, cost and deliver ability. Furthermore, their administrative and HR departments organize regular training and motivational exercises for the workforce; thus ensuring a happy and satisfied workforce producing world class products.
“Our company has come a long way from just a parts manufacturer to a supplier which works as a partner with our esteemed customers to develop, manufacture and supply world class products. Our close association with customers helps us to understand and fulfill their stated and implied needs. Today, Mehta Automotive is actively working towards adopting Industry 4.0 in manufacturing for giving value to its customers,” concludes Amit.
Besides increasing presence in automotive space, Mehta Automotive is also keen to cater to requirements of high quality products in non-automotive space. For this, a new company by the name of RAVpro Industries has been created, which has started exporting products for home improvement, hand tools and garage tools to the North American market.
