Nawa Engineers

NAWA is actively involved in the engineering, development and manufacture of heavy duty crushing, screening and material handling equipment and plants for hard rock and mineral ores. At Excon, NAWA will exhibit its equipment in a sprawling 862 sq.m outdoor stall. Talking about the company’s expectations from the show, Mr. G N Raju, Manging Director said that we expect EXCON 2011 to live up to its big ticket billing as one of the biggest Construction Equipment Machinery shows in the world. We hope that we can witness a whole new showcase of products and sets of ideas and trends in the construction equipment industry. We will display our new Mobile Plants in various old and new configurations and hope to network and interact with various companies (including overseas) and strengthen our existing business and establish newer ones. We expect to leave a mark of our manufacturing expertise and showcase indigenous Indian manufacturing capability and talent.

In addition, we will run various multimedia presentations of our inherent strengths in providing design to commissioning of turnkey bulk material handling projects. We will showcase our state-of-the-art brand new manufacturing plants which are retrofitted to take care of heavy fabrication capabilities which have drawn the attention of various foreign companies.

Speaking about the NAWA’s focus area of new products offerings for 2012-13, Mr. Raju said, NAWA will venture into the offering of Track Mounted Plants - all developed and manufactured in-house. It has also plans to manufacture Concrete Batching Plant Machinery. Due to a high level of enquiries from foreign vendors, NAWA has serious plans to get into trading of common infrastructure construction equipment like Cranes, Loaders etc.

Nawa’s Perspective on CSE Industry
With massive infrastructure construction activity underway in India for the last few years, the Crushing and Screening Equipment are now detached exclusively from being a mining sector domain to the core construction sector domains.

The very need for millions of tons of road base materials, concrete mixes and asphalt mixes has pitch forked the need of Crushing & Screening Equipment (CSE) into the forefront of the Construction Equipment (CE) Industry.

CSE convert hard rocks into aggregates. The machinery used for mineral sizing and hard rock being mostly the same - the manufacturers, both multinational and domestic players, of CSE have turned their entire focus on aggregate/quarry industry. Stone crushing which hitherto looked down as low end business has now prominently occupied the same status as that of CE sector. The roadside 30-50 TPH crusher plants have been transformed into 300-500-900 TPH high-tech aggregate plants.

The CSE manufacturing sector has grown multifold. Indigenous players have developed new and high capacity primary jaw crushers, secondary & tertiary hydraulic cone crushers, horizontal shaft impact crushers, vibrating screening equipment and complete plant installations to meet ever increasing demand for aggregates for the national highways projects, state road projects, dam construction, airports, sea ports, urban infrastructure development, power projects and commercial RMC plants.

Nawa Engineers

Multinational manufacturers have had a field day and continue to flourish. Many of them have setup their manufacturing base here as India will be their major source of business. Many new players have set foot on Indian shores from all corners of the world, and numbers are increasing foreseeing a boom period of much larger scale in 2010-20 and beyond.

The CSE sector too has matured and is able to produce crushing and screening equipment to world standards and compete with the multinationals.

NAWA leads the pack in the Indigenous CSE Manufacturers segment for manufacturing low to very high end capacities.

CSE Industry Demand Forecast
According to CPCB forecast, the CSE Industry is expected to churn out nearly 45 billion tonnes of aggregates needed as supply of raw material aggregate needed for the core Construction & Infrastructure (CI) Industry till 2013 to produce the various projected roads, dams, ports, industrial corridors, high speed rail corridors projects. This demand is expected to increase to nearly triple to 135 billion tones of aggregates by the end of the 12th Five Year Plan. This translates to a requirement of over 26,500 CSE plants by 2017 end making this a niche and leading CE industry segment in terms of CE share.

Nawa Engineers

NAWA seeks to take a lion share of this CSE market forecast.

CSE Industry Sector Forecast
The impending slowdown forecast across the western world due to financial debt conditions and near zero investment forecast for the saturated core infrastructure segments in those countries for the next five years, it is clear that the India and China will be the core focus of all Foreign CE Companies. This also puts the pressure on Indian government to come out with more clear guidelines for the mining, ports and every Infrastructure sectors. With a trillion dollar investment envisaged in the 12th 5 years plan, it has become vital to avoid scams and ensure transparency of development of the CE Sector.

Nawa Engineers

For the CSE Sector -
A) 2012-13: the demand will be overwhelmingly more for the tyre based mobile plant configurations

B) 2012-17: the demand for concrete sector picks up due to sectoral demands and hence NAWA will introduce its integrate batching plants to provide an end to end aggregate to concrete provision CSE plant configurations.

C) 2013-17: the demand in mining sector will pickup leading to a demand for track based mobile plant configurations

NAWA seeks to introduce the entire range of equipment (from low to the highest capacities) as per the demand of the CSE market. While the foreign competition is a risk factor, NAWA is better placed with its indigenous technologies to service the need of CSE equipment with equivalent or more quality at much lower prices than the foreign counterparts.

MBK Maschinenbau GmbH

MBK Maschinenbau GmbH
Giel Janssen,
Senior Marketing Officer.
MBK has been working in the Indian market for the past five years with the active assistance from Technicom, New Delhi. During the period, the company has sold 4 machines to Indian concrete pipe producers and after speaking to dozens of pipe producers and construction companies, we discovered that several users have preferred to choose less expensive equipment from Asian companies that are copy of our equipment. This way their initial investment was lower, but apparently now, some of them have realized that the "low cost" equipment does not perform well and they are now re-contacting us for our equipment, said Giel Janssen, a senior marketing officer.

On participating at Excon 2011 he explained, we intend to promote and introduce our new generations of cage machines and a solar system washing equipment at the show. During the event, our agents will also organize meetings with the existing customers and would be clients to establish a status quo wherein our newly designed high speed machines may just prove and make the required difference making it crystal clear that our prices went down whereas the performance has gone up. For India, we also have plan to introduce our machinery for the production of paint rollers and brushes. Our assessment is that India is and will for sure remain a reliable market for years to come and also the fastest growing economies opening up huge business potentials. So we together with our local partners are keen to be a part of the growth story.

MBK Maschinenbau
This year, MBK is celebrating its 50th anniversary and till now we have built and installed about 800 machines for the concrete pipe and construction industry, just like some 150 machines for production of paint rollers and brushes. Our success, even in tough years, confirms that most people cannot afford to buy cheap stuff. Producers do realize that the factor that counts is the price and quality ratio. When calculating any price difference basing your calculation on a 25-year life span, it makes the price difference looks negligible. Trouble-free production, reliability, narrow tolerance, higher production and world-class after sales services are the factors people need to give top priority.

Technology can Streamline RMC Business

RMC industry is experiencing an exponential growth presently. And almost all CEOs are keen to deriving maximum benefits from the opportunities arising. They are in to intense planning for expanding horizons and reaching new heights.

The preparatory measures include streamlining production and business processes, finding permanent solutions for productivity and quality enhancement, material management and inventory, data security & performance analyses, inducting personnel and defining roles, fixing responsibilities and setting up processes, improving efficiency and setting up infrastructure, identifying credible vendors and standardizing products and solutions and the list is apparently endless.

A RMC CEO has to face numerous challenges to manage the business effectively. Rapidly growing customer demands for increased supply and quality assurance, product consistency and timely delivery is adding to the pressure put by an already dynamic industry.

Now is the time which warrants the business owners to be well-informed about the entire range of benefits that automation could offer them. Since the day of manual mixing of concrete to present times of complete automation, concrete industry has traveled great distance. During this tenure, process automation has made significant contribution in propelling the industry growth. With semi automatic production in early days, followed by the use of microprocessor controlled devices, then by a genre of PLC based fully automatic systems, followed by incorporation of SCADA in batching systems; this technology too has evolved considerably.

Production issues:

A good batching system built on right technology platform can offer truly effective solutions. High quality concrete batching systems like that of IDS have revolutionized concrete automation. IDS product philosophy was always steps ahead than its counterparts. IDS products have successfully delivered higher productivity, greater accuracy, and better quality concrete at each batch. Specific IDS products have effectively resolved many production related issues, which even international systems failed to do; and thus, maximized efficiency to satisfy decision makers.

Using a batching system just to streamlining production is like a job half done. We really can derive a bunch of benefits from a good batching system. It should provide for plant and personnel safety, reduce plant wear and tear, reduce break down time, and be able to store & protect your data and easy generation of production, consumption and analytical reports.

The significance of a good batching system in effectively managing production process is unquestionable. Now, the industry decision makers have to try identifying an appropriate batching system which will resolve all the production issues and achieve benchmark in productivity, quality and performance.

About their presence and expansion plans for India he elaborated, we are present in the Indian market since 2007 when we participated in Excon for the first time. In the meantime, we have a good number of OEM customers together with a distributor organization operating nearly all over India. The increasing demand from Indian OEMS of reliable hydraulic components and systems for the internal and export markets gives us good opportunities to introduce our products of highest technological level. Further he said, it is absolutely necessary to further enlarge and instruct our distributors in India to be nearer to our customers, also the OEMS, for technical service and assistance as well as supply of spare parts, if necessary.

Officine Meccaniche EME

Officine Meccaniche EME
Mr. Alessandro Guerra
Managing Director of Officine Meccaniche EME
"We are interested in evaluating the possibility to start a production unit in India. This could be for sure a good solution to add competitiveness and value to our production range," said Mr. Alessandro Guerra – Managing Director of Officine Meccaniche EME, an Italian manufacturer of Speed gears, differential axles, reduction units etc.

Officine
We entered into the Indian market quite some time back with our products by starting a business relationship with an Indian company which manufactures industrial vehicles. At Excon 2009 and other construction trade fairs when we participated in India, had received overwhelming response and lot of interest for our products. Our drive units for industrial vehicles up to 3 ton have been the most appreciated products by the visitors.

About the company he said, our company started to produce mechanical transmission in 1962. Actually our main market is Europe but we are also getting overwhelming responses from other European markets such as South Africa and Brazil. In China as well some agricultural vehicles are working with our applications. Our products are suitable for many different applications including industrial, agricultural etc, he added.

FAE Group S.p.A

FAE Group
Mr. Diego Facchinetti,
Sales Manager, Asia Pacific.
"Our main focus at Excon is to underline once more the introduction of the FAE Vegetation Management and Road Refurbishing Technology to the Indian market, as we have been doing for the last 8 months already. Since this technology is completely new and never applied on a day to day basis in India, we need to find potential key customers who are receptive to its benefits," said Mr. Diego Facchinetti, Sales Manager, Asia Pacific.

Elucidating his point, he said that we will need to focus on specific projects/applications and explain in detail the productivity and cost-effectiveness of using the FAE industrial mulchers, road stabilizers, profilers and rock crushers. Due to the lack of high HP prime movers in India, tractors for example are only manufactured/sold up to 75 HP, we need to introduce complete packages which is another challenge.

FAE
On the prospect of FAE's growth in India he said, we have started marketing through an agency in India which has a long experience in the road refurbishing, quarry and mining sector. We hope this will be the start of the FAE development in the Indian market and believe that the construction industry, with particular focus on the 3 sectors specified before, will be the first stepping stone. We would like to see a development in the land reclaiming and vegetation management industry as well as it is one of our strong assets. Sooner or later, also in India vegetation management will have to be done in less invasive ways and without burning. FAE is offering efficient and extremely "green" solutions which recycle the vegetation into the soil and, in the case of forestry, plantations and agricultural applications, improve the conditions of the soil.

Explaining the functionality of its machines he stated, FAE machines are aimed at contractors or large project based organizations which need an efficient and ecological way to clear land from vegetation and standing trees of any height and size, from stones and rocky reefs. Moreover, we aim at contractors who need to refurbish gravel roads, farm to market roads, municipal, asphalt and bitumen roads. FAE rock crushers, soil stabilizers, asphalt grinders can recycle rocks up to 700 mm in diameter, rocky reefs and asphalt in order to create a very homogeneous mix of gravel stones and soil. This can be compacted to 100% compaction levels. Cement, lime/chemical binders can be added, also through the spraying systems on our machines, to obtain a strong base for heavy traffic, without the need to use traditional capital intensive road machinery commonly used by road contractors.

As FAE implements can be driven by agricultural tractors, excavators, skid steers, etc., it seems natural that our development should come through a network of existing machinery dealers. However, the novelty and little knowledge of our technology by the Indian market make this a complicated road. We believe the introduction must first be done by means of specific projects and, once the first case studies have been publicized, a second phase of market penetration will begin, he said, adding that FAE Group also manufactures dedicated Prime Movers up to 600 HP with crawler tracks which can be used in forestry as well as in road refurbishing and mining operations. The mining industry might create interesting opportunities for FAE technology, especially in refurbishing and improving access and haul roads in order to make the operations smoother and save money on dump truck tires.

Weckenmann already its a presence in India, which is reflected in an existing customer base as well as a continuous market cultivation through our mother company itself as well as our Indian agent. Since the precast industry in India is still in an emerging phase, Weckenmann would like to support the industry's needs by providing efficient and cost sensitive start up factories, which can be expanded in the future along with this industry's further development.

The precast industry is not a "mass product" but an industry based on larger investment amounts with individual factories. Nevertheless, it is important to be well-represented in the market and to be close to our customers. Weckenmann follows a double approach by being represented inside India through an active agent who can keep in close contact with our customer base. In addition, however, we feel it is important to be present continuously through regular visits from Germany. Weckenmann guarantees a strong after sales support 24/7.
