SYNEGRA has inaugurated one more new state-of-the-art SMT line at its production unit in Goa. SYNEGRA EMS Ltd. is a subsidy of SMARTLINK, which started manufacturing Networking Products by importing the 1st SMT line in 1994. Due to high volume manufacturing with Government support of Duty difference of finished products and detail parts importing, SYNEGRA started manufacturing many types of products and increased its production capacity to 8 SMT lines.
After the WTO agreement due to the duty-free import of Finished Products, manufacturing decreased year on year in India. Two years back SYNEGRA imported the FUJI NXT III line as most of the SMT lines had become very old.
Last year, due to Government support of the PLI scheme and Basic Custom Duty on some of the products increasing the capacity of manufacturing, we added one more SMT Line FUJI NXT III and inaugurated it.
K. R. Naik, Executive Chairman, SMARTLINK HOLDING LTD, said, “It’s a proud moment for adding one more SMT line within two years due to Government support. We see a huge opportunity for manufacturing all kinds of products in India and we are happy because of the good acceptance of Made in India products. We have been committed to the government’s vision for Vocal for Local and has always encouraged local manufacturing. We started manufacturing 8086 Mother Boards in 1986 by getting parts from Singapore as we were not aware of Taiwan and China. We are in manufacturing for more than three decades. “
Vijay Rane, Factory Head, SYNEGRA EMS Ltd., said, “We have added one more SMT line FUJI NXT III for better operation as both the machines are highly productive, multi-functional modular placing machines. These SMT lines have built-in head exchange function and support machine reconfigurability & scalability. It runs a self-Diagnosis function called Auto & Hybrid Calibration to ensure High Placement Accuracy.”
SMARTLINK was established in 1993 in Goa and the First SMT line was imported in 1994. Due to the advantage of Duty difference SMARTLINK had several joint Ventures with the multinational brand in manufacturing and Association with worldwide known Brands and increased to 8 SMT lines more than 1000 workforce, manufacturing Mother Boards in high volume, all kinds of Networking Products like Routers, Switches, Wi-Fi, etc.
Due to DUTY-FREE import of Finished Products the manufacturing slowly day by day decreased many large companies closed manufacturing operations and started importing. In our case, as the SMT line machines started becoming old we scraped them one by one.
Four years back as manufacturing decreased SMARTLINK split its business into three individual companies, to focus on businesses like Manufacturing Companies, and Products Brand sales & marketing companies with support all over India.
