Why Indiaprecast
Why Hollow core slab manufactured from our Plant & Machinery is Better & Economical compared to any European or American Plant and Machinery?
| Sr.No. | European machineries | Our machineries | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Shed for Installing plant | Heavy Industrial shed required. | No need - Open to sky. During Rains install temporary plastic shed. |
| 2 | Casting beds for Extrusion of Hollow core slabs | Expensive Steel Bed (Cassette type) used. | On smooth & well-leveled Concrete floor beds |
| 3 | Length of bed & No. of Casting beds for Extrusion of Hollow core slabs. | Length : 130 to 150 Meters Casting Beds : 4 |
Length : 130 to 150 meters Casting Beds : Total 10 As Natural curing time is more hence No of beds are more and average beds for production per day comes to 3.33. (1st day 4 , 2nd Day 3 & 3rd Day 3 so average 3.33) |
| 4 | Total Area for extrusion + batching plant + other + storage of casted slab. | 6 Acres as storage of slab is done outside the extrusion beds area with special cranes |
3.5 Acres as storage of slab is done adjunct to extrusion beds with special extended crane arms |
| 5 | Investment to Set-up Plant | For Residential : Approx. 16.50 Cr For Commercial : Additional 3 Cr |
For Residential : Approx. 3.30 Cr For Commercial : Additional 50 Lakhs |
| 6 | Labour Cost | Cost of Labor per Sq. Mtr – Rs. 90/- Total 23 Nos. Need Highly skilled labor for Hi-tech M/c. so the cost is high. | Cost of Labor per Sq. Mtr – Rs. 48/- Total 23 Nos. average skilled labor can do this job |
| 7 | Cost of Cutting Blade | Cost for Cutting blade with European cutter : Rs. 26/- | Cost for Cutting blade. (we have assumed 2 Nos. of Chinese cutter = 1 no of European cutter) : Rs. 18/- | 8 | Approx. Yearly Production | 1,60,000 Sq. Meters | 1,33,000 Sq. Meters | 9 | Approx. Production Cost per Sq. Meter | For Residential : Per Year Cost : Rs. 26.50 Cr (Rs. 1985 / Sq. Meter) For Commercial : Per Year Cost : Rs. 34.75 Cr (Rs. 2609 / Sq. Meter) | For Residential : Per Year Cost : Rs. 20.83 Cr (Rs. 1563 / Sq. Meter) For Commercial : Per Year Cost : Rs. 28.75 Cr (Rs. 2157 / Sq. Meter) Savings – 5.67 Cr | 10 | Return on Investment (ROI) in Months | For Residential : 36 Months For Commercial : 44 Months |
For Residential : 5 Months For Commercial : 6 Months |
| 11 | Curing of Concrete slab by Heating system | Steam Curing provided Underneath above steel beds. (Steam generated by Boilers) | Natural curing. Taking advantage of our Hot & Humid Climate & also being open to sky. |
| 12 | Type of Extrusion Machine | Modular construction. | One size One Machine. |
| 13 | Design of Extrusion Machine | Highly Automated, Computerized with Sensors. Design to counter their climate & offset the cost of their costly manpower. | Simple Design. Start & Stop Functionality. Needs basic Technical Manpower to operate & maintain which is very economical. |
| 14 | Capacity & Height of Hopper of Extrusion M/c. | Capacity of Hopper 1.5 cubic meter & Height of Hopper is Very high. | Capacity of Hopper 1 cubic meter & is more horizontal plane & very Low in Height. |
| 15 | Concrete Mix Delivered to Extrusion M/c by… | Shuttle system + Overhead cranes or with Overhead Crane & Skip Bucket. | Mini Dumpers are used which Runs on Diesel. + Can be used for other work in the plant like Pulling the steel strand from one end to other & additional construction activity can be done. |
| 16 | Concrete Mix Delivery Time & Cost | With above system Very High & Very Costly to operate & Maintain + high power consumption. | With above system Very Fast, Cheap & Easy to Operate & Maintain |
| 17 | Concrete mixer & Batching plant for zero slump concrete. European & our plant material like Cement, Aggregate & Sand used are same. One can compare Results of Hollow core slabs & Test blocks produce from their respective Batching plants and know the differences | Very costly & Hi-fi system & Installed at the height of more than 30 feet. | Simple & Specific to Use & Requirement. Installed at about max. 8 feet height |
| 18 | Power Consumption & Requirement | Installed capacity about 350KW. Consumption is Very high as there are lot of high rated capacity machines + more No. of Cranes + Boiler + Covered plant need more illumination | Installed capacity about 175 KW. Consumption of power is Low as less No. of Cranes + Natural curing , No Boiler + open to sky hence does not need illumination in day. |
| 19 | Import duty on M/c & spares | Very High. High priced M/c & High price spares hence more costly | Very Low. Low price m/c & Low price spares hence Less import duty. |
| 20 | Time for Plant Installation etc. | Approx. 9 months as industrial shed and huge overhead cranes are installed. | Within 3 to 4 months |
| 21 | Flexibility of shifting plant | Very difficult in case of Labor Unrest | Very simple & Easy. |
| 22 | Shipping of slabs to site. | Need to pay additional Taxes, Govt. duties as manufactured outside the Project site. | No need to pay additional Taxes, Govt. duties, as slabs can be manufactured at the Project site. |
