UCAM Pvt Ltd, led by visionary founder Indradev Babu, was established with a clear mission, to liberate Indian manufacturers from their reliance on foreign companies for high precision CNC rotary tables. The company which was founded in 1986 has made a name for itself as a pioneer in the machining industry in and around the country. Their recent participation at the IMTEX 2023 was a big success considering the kind of response they got from the industry experts and the manufacturing enthusiasts who came from all over the world. UCAM showcased a line of flagship products which included their Rotary Tables, Titling machines and innovative solutions at the expo. UCAM further solidified their position as industry leaders by launching the groundbreaking “Q series Rotary CNC machine”, a new addition to their comprehensive lineup of machining solutions.
Talking about India and the recent developments and growth of manufacturing in India, Indradev Babu, the founder and the current MD at UCAM expressed, “Manufacturing in India has been growing steadily, and recently the government has also been focusing a lot on manufacturing. The manufacturing GDP is growing in relation to the overall GDP of the country, and machine tool consumption is following suit. Today, India’s consumption of machine tools is about 20,000 crores, making us the sixth-largest consumer. As a result, the mood is very upbeat, despite the recessionary trends around the world. India remains a shining star in manufacturing, experiencing significant growth.”
UCAM’s mission of Indigenous Manufacturing in India
UCAM has been in the manufacturing industry for more than three decades now and they are the pioneers of what we today call ‘Make In India’. Their vision, right from the very beginning regarding the import of machines from abroad was very clear, thanks to the emphasis placed on self-reliance or Atma Nirbhar approach by the founding directors. Their indigenous products were not only cheap and affordable to local small scale enterprises but they also increased their productivity and efficiency when it came to manufacturing. Their constant support to the companies is why they have a very large clientele spread across various industries and regions in the country.
Talking about the contribution of UCAM in India’s growth in the manufacturing sector, Vijay Zaritaklikar, National Sales Manager at UCAM shared, “All our products are all made in India, aligning with the honorable Prime Minister’s agendas of ‘Make in India’ and ‘Vocal for Local.’ UCAM has been a proponent of these initiatives for the past 35 years, even before they were formally declared. In the early years, when imported products dominated the market, our Managing Director, Mr. Indradev Babu, worked tirelessly to overcome the challenges. Through 35 years of dedicated effort, we have reached the level we are at today, thanks to our belief in continuous improvement and the relentless pursuit of excellence in our product line.”
Since its inception, UCAM has always focused on the customer needs and modifications each client demands which can not only benefit them in the long run but bring about a substantial transformation in the overall success of the enterprise. Customization plays a pivotal role in UCAM’s success, as they serve a diverse range of industries. “Our Rotary Tables have been instrumental in assisting our customers in achieving significant advancements in their machining operations. These innovative additions are even more competitive, featuring compact designs, superior performance, reduced weight, and lower inertia. And this is why the machines equipped with these rotary tables will experience enhanced speed, ultimately leading to improved customer outcomes”, added Indradev.
UCAM at IMTEX: A Glimpse into Tomorrow’s Manufacturing Solutions
At IMTEX 2023, UCAM was successful in making a substantial stand by exhibiting some of their world class innovations in the machining sector.
