Crompton Greaves (CG), part of the $4-billion Avantha Group, has inaugurated a high-efficiency, low-voltage rotating machines (LVRM) plant at Goa. The new LVRM, designed on the lean principle production output, is the first just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing line in the company.

Traditionally, processes at motor manufacturing plants operate in isolation on the batch principle to generate bulk output. This integrated JIT line has a TAKT time (the rate at which the customer buys your product) of three minutes per motor and a lead time of 130 minutes, which represents a gain of 98 percent over a batch mode.

The new plant capacity has been set at 10,000 additional units each month. This represents a 66 per cent capacity increase to the current production capacity. The unit will handle a three-phase production of induction motors from 0.37 to 9.3 kW.

Crompton Greaves is engaged in designing, manufacturing and marketing electrical products and services related to power generation, transmission and distribution.
