LEVERAGING R&D FOR CO-EXISTING TECH

Q. What is the significance of the new product lineup?

A. We have showcased our entire ICE product lineup. This includes the new product lines we are entering into. We showcased pistons, piston rings, pins, and engine valves apart from some new technology aggregates such as hydrogen and green hydrogen. We also have solutions for e-mobility that include motors, and controllers for multiple applications, from e-bikes to Commercial Vehicles up to 200 kW.

Q. How are you aligning with the demand for an alternative drivetrain?

A. Many OEMs are trying alternative drivetrains. We have come to the conclusion that all of these will coexist. According to me, the demand for ICE will continue and be independent of the EV demand. We are prepared for green hydrogen, and flex-fuel and Natural Gas (NG) engines. As a manufacturer, today we are delivering piston pins for the majority of the players. Having a major market share in the industry we have to service an entire range. These applications need a completely new design, and the strength which we bring to the table is our R&D. We have been developing it for over a decade. We have an in-house engineering team that is well-equipped to align with emerging trends. As a testimony, we have in-house solutions for LNG and CNG.
