Arctech, a global manufacturer and supplier of intelligent solar trackers, recently set up its first manufacturing base in India.

Located over 16 acres in Mundra, Gujarat, the new factory is modeled after Arctech’s existing Chinese manufacturing base in both the automatic production line and world-class manufacturing management system, a release by Artech said.

The manufacturing plant has come up in joint venture called “Jash Energy”, in association with an Indian partner. With an annual manufacturing capacity of 3 GW, the plant will produce all major components for Arctech’s solar tracker portfolio.

 

Torque tube design

Arctech is well-acclaimed for its signature solar tracker with the patented torque tube design and the multi-point drive mechanism. Hence the manufacturing base is particularly facilitated with the industrial advanced automatic production line for Arctech’s patented torque tube allowing for better performance in solar trackers’ stiffness.

With its long-lasting dedication to deepening the market penetration in India, the official launch of the factory marks that the company is now capable to encompass the full lifecycle of tracker systems including structural, mechanical and electrical design as well as construction, operation and maintenance in the country.

 

Location advantage

Strategically located in Mundra, the largest private port in India, Jash Energy will have easy access to Western, Middle East, and African markets. Mundra also provides an ideal base for traders due to its relatively short logistics connectivity to the northwestern hinterland. It is easily accessible from all major industrial destinations in Delhi, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, and Himachal Pradesh for the export of cargo, the company stated.
