Pumping with Confidence: Ensuring Quality at Every Stage with Shakti's Infrastructure

Here at Shakti we have a unique infrastructure in place which allows us to meet ever changing market demands, whilst still delivering quality products in high volumes. We are able to do this thanks to the specialised set-up of our facilities, which allows Shakti to accurately allocate work to specific units, ensuring production timeframes and quality control are as efficient as they can be.
The different units Shakti have worked hard to set up and maintain are:

SEZ Unit:

Set up in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in 2007 in the Pithampur region of India, our facilities here are responsible for the production of 100% stainless steel submersible pumps to be exported all over the globe, in answer to the call of different international market requirements. The unit houses an advanced modern plant and various pieces of high-tech machinery able to meet the standards of the international market. This means Shakti is able to make numerous differences to the productsproduced depending on the demands of the client and in response to any regulations in place related to their geography.It also ensures Shakti can meet different international standards and guarantee global customer satisfaction.

Domestic Unit

This other unit is also situated in Sector III of the Pithampur Industrial Area, but this particular Shakti development consists of a number of plants able to meet the specific market needs of different product groups. This unit is a particular asset to Shakti, as it allows us to tackle the different challenges thrown up by a number of different product groups.

-4" Motor Manufacturing Plant:

this particular plant is exclusively used for the manufacturing of 4" submersible motors. It is equipped with state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment to ensure every submersible 4" motor produced is of the highest quality.

-6", 8" and 10" Motor Manufacturing Plant:

this plant is focused on the manufacturing of 6", 8" and 10"submersiblemotors for pumps of corresponding sizes. Again, this plant houses state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment to ensure Shakti can compete on a global scale across all these different product sectors. The equipment housed in this plant is the most modern and up-to-date available to ensure all 6", 8" and 10" motors are the most advanced in the current market.

-Submersible Pump Manufacturing Unit:

this unit is used solely to produce 100% stainless steel submersible pumps in various sizes for use in the domestic market. The unit is able to meet the constantly changing demands of the domestic market due to its technologically advanced assembly lines and equipment.

-Industrial Pumps Manufacturing Unit:

the final plant in the Unit III development produces pumps for various industrial applications, including vertical multi-stage centrifugal pumps, pressure booster pumps, hydro systems, self-priming pumps, open well pumps, end solution pumps, sewage and effluent water pumps, boiler feed application pumps and pumps for use in firefighting, among others. This unit is also able to meet constantly changing marketdemands in a rapid turnaround time thanks to the use of cutting-edge technology and the specialised focus of the workers in the unit.

In order to ensure every pump is of the highest quality, Shakti has installed a computerised testing facility to measure the performance of the pumps produced and compare them to the international market. This means that Shakti is always striving to improve operations and its ranking in the global marketplace.

Electronics and Control Plant

MANUFACTURING FACILITIES

The E&C Plant is equipped with state-of-the-art machinery and skilled manpower to provide reliable and quality products. The whole manufacturing is process-driven and independent of manual soldering and testing due to the latest technology machines.

SMT ASSEMBLY

The plant has the capability to place components ranging from 0402 (01005) package size components to the larger SMT packages with absolute precision, matching IPC-A-610 standards. With the high level of placement accuracy and solder joint integrity, the best quality is consistently achieved. With two modern SMT lines, Shakti can place up to 99,000 placements per hour and are fully equipped to undertake PCB batches from low to high quantities.

THROUGH-HOLE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY (THT)

Traditional leaded through-hole components can be either flow soldered or fitted by our dedicated, highly skilled assembly team. This approach offers a robust, high-precision expedient assembly solution. With their wealth of training to the highest IPC-610 standards, Shakti’s staff can offer a level of soldering ability that sets us apart from the competition.

ENCAPSULATION & CONFORMAL COATING

Our conformal coating material is a thin polymeric film that ‘conforms to the contours of a printed circuit board to protect the board’s components. Typically applied at 10-210μm (micrometers) it is applied to electronic circuitry to act as protection against moisture, dust, chemicals, and temperature extremes.

PCB FUNCTIONAL TEST

E&C Plant has a highly skilled team of Test Engineers and Technicians as well as a large range of testing equipment, bench, and functional test equipment. Our staff undergo cross-product training and have a huge range of experience within the field of Electronics Test. Customers can have the confidence that the product has been fully tested to their specifications.
