Setco Spindles India, part of the world-renowned spindle solutions provider Setco, announced the successful dispatch of its first commercial export order to a machine tool OEM in South Korea. This milestone order consists of three BT 50 spindles specifically designed for drilling applications, operating at 3000 RPM. The order, following a rigorous five-month trial of prototype spindles, underscores Setco’s commitment to delivering high-quality, customized solutions tailored to the demands of global OEMs.
“This successful delivery to South Korea highlights Setco Spindle India’s capacity to provide innovative and dependable spindle technology,” said Rajesh Mandlik, Managing Director & CEO of Setco Spindles India. “Our collaboration with this South Korean OEM is a testament to our team’s expertise and dedication to quality and customer satisfaction. We are thrilled to support their success with our advanced spindle technology.”
In its pursuit of excellence, Setco Spindles India recently enhanced its manufacturing capabilities by installing a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) and implementing a Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) program as of March 2024. Currently, the facility produces around 70-80 spindles monthly, covering both belt-driven and direct-drive models for various OEMs.
This achievement represents a significant step forward for the Indian machine tool industry, traditionally led by Taiwanese and Chinese manufacturers. Further expanding its global reach, Setco Spindles India is now fulfilling a 20-spindle order for Setco USA, destined for a U.S.-based OEM, reinforcing its position as a trusted global leader in spindle technology.
