Mumbai mission to provide customers with more immediate-comprehensive support
Taiwan’s AUTOGRIP has acquired 2-acre land in north Chennai to establish a production base in India and expand business in the machine tool industry, says the company vice president Victor Chen.
As the impact of the epidemic fades away and the trend of reshaping of the global supply chain system, this investment marked the determination of AUTOGRIP to expand in India, Chen said.
As a leading manufacturer of power chucks/rotary cylinders, the Taiwanese company is now ushering in the establishment of its India service centre located in Mumbai, to provide customers with more immediate and comprehensive support, which is a milestone for AUTOGRIP to enter the Indian market.
According to the director of AUTOGRIP India service center, Brijesh C Patel, AUTOGRIP has started to cooperate with several India lathe makers to supply chucks and cylinders as standard components since 2018.
Although sales declined during Covid-19, it is now recovering with a surge in inquiries from customers, he said.
AUTOGRIP India service center was established at the perfect time to enhance customer experience and satisfaction.
In addition, the 2,000 sq ft Morbi warehouse is also strategically positioned to serve the Rajkot (Gujarat) OEM cluster.
Founded in 1989, AUTOGRIP machinery has over 30 years of experience in the design and manufacturing of automatic clamping solutions for lathe, milling, and special purpose machines. Their product lines include power chucks, collet chucks, rotary cylinders, facing heads, synchronous clamps, and rotary valves. fiinews.com
