OEM Update Magazine
|August 2025
Manufacturing operations change in response to increasing demands and evolving needs. Manojit Brahme from SDTRONICS shares that their production line has semi-automated and fully automated processes, depending on the complexity and volume of the product. What has automation done for them? Enhanced throughput, reduced rejection rates and more.

How has the demand for wires and cables evolved in recent years, and how has SDTRONICS adapted its manufacturing capabilities to meet these demands?
The wire and cable industry has witnessed a remarkable surge in demand due to rapid electrification, the accelerating shift towards electric vehicles (EVs), and large-scale infrastructure development across the country. To address this, we have expanded our product range and enhanced our technical capabilities to produce high-performance, application-specific cables that meet the requirements of various applications.
Our offerings have evolved from standard industrial cables to highly specialised harnesses and customised cable solutions for sectors like EV, renewable energy, factory automation, and smart infrastructure. We've also invested in modernising our production setup and adopting lean practices for flexibility and scalability.
Can you walk us through your production line? Also, what level of automation have you implemented, and how does it impact quality and output?
