India’s construction and engineering company Larsen & Toubro (L&T) said on the 24th it has entered industrial electronics manufacturing, with two production lines beginning trial operations at its plant in Coimbatore in the southern state of Tamil Nadu. The company plans to supply industrial electronic products in India and overseas.
The business will be run through a newly established unit, L&T Electronic Products & Systems (LTEPS). Manufacturing will be based in Coimbatore, while LTEPS’ headquarters functions will be located in Bengaluru in southern India.
Building on expertise developed in strategic electronic equipment for defense and government customers, LTEPS will develop and manufacture products in areas including power electronics, mobility, industrial robots and automation systems, communications platforms, and electronic system design and manufacturing, known as ESDM.
LTEPS said it will expand the business in stages. It plans to build out the full industrial electronics value chain at its Coimbatore site, covering about 40 acres (about 16.2 hectares), from research and development and product development to ESDM, contract manufacturing, design and engineering support, procurement and testing.
