In 1989-90 :
With 9 yrs. of work experience on shop floor thro’ various foundries & engineering
units, mainly in the field of manufacturing submersible pump sets, a small SSI unit
named as Microcare India Inc. was started under the leadership of Mr.Mukesh
Patel, B.E.Mech, from Gujarat University. This unit is manufacturing all
Cast Iron components like Upper & Lower Housings, Motor bases, Stage Casings, Non
Return Valves, Suction Cases etc.
In 1995-96 :
Started in-house foundry with attached work-shop to melt Lead Bronze ingots to manufacture
Bush Bearings to be used in pumps & motors under the name of Microcare Techniques
(P) Ltd. It was aimed to produce 10000 bush bearings per month but due to
specific metallurgy and compositions used as per international standards, products
were accepted by top class pump manufacturers in India with order level position
up to 45000 per month. Company decided to expand the production capacity at new
factory building situated at Dist-Gandhinagar with 12500 sq.yards land area with
almost 1800 sq.yards of construction, divided in to three mfg .units and one for
marketing with separate office building. All products are 100 % inspected & marked
with our own logo- ‘microcare’ on each piece.
In 1997-98 :
Company started making Tools and Moulds, in-house with aim & vision to replace
sand casted gunmetal impellers with Precision Investment Cast Stainless steel to
reduce frictional losses, to improve sand abrasion resistance, to transfer quite
lesser axial load on thrust bearings due to light weight of each impellers resulting
in very good pump efficiency and better long life of pump sets.Achieved export orders
also for various MOULDS in the field of valves.
In 2004-05 :
Company Started making SHEET METAL IMPELLERS to be used in 6” Bore well pumps. Still
development is going on looking to the Indian market conditions. Company now bought
some CNC machines for turning operations to provide accurate products to the buyers.
In 2008-09 :
Recently started making Sand Casted and Shell Molded Components, mainly Impellers to be
machined through CNC turning centers for V6 & V8 series of submersible pump sets.
This is quite cheap products as compared to Investment casings.
