Ace Designers Opens Ahmedabad Plant, Targets 4,000 Machines Annually in Next Phase of Global Expansion
Ace Designers Limited (“Ace” or “ADL”) today
announced the inauguration of its new state-of-the-art assembly facility at Panchratna
Industrial Park, Ahmedabad. This strategic expansion marks a significant
milestone in ADL’s growth journey, reinforcing its commitment to capacity
enhancement, business expansion, and strengthening its global footprint.
Over the next five years, the facility is
designed to achieve an annual production capacity of approximately 3,000
turning machines and 1,000 machining centres. The plant will emphasize
localization through the development of regional vendors and the deployment of
skilled manpower. Starting with a workforce of around 100 employees, the plant
is expected to scale up to approximately 350 personnel over this period.
Founded in 1979 by three engineers from the
Central Manufacturing Technology Institute (CMTI), Ace Designers began as a design
consulting company and went on to establish the Ace Micromatic Group. Following
the amalgamation of Ace Designers, Ace Manufacturing Systems, and Micromatic
Machine Tools, Ace Designers Limited has emerged as India’s largest
manufacturer of CNC turning centres and machining centres.
With an anticipated annual turnover exceeding
INR 2,800 crore in FY 2025–26, ADL has the capacity to manufacture 8,000
turning centres and 3,400 machining centres annually. The company has
established a strong global presence across Asia, Australia, the Middle East,
North and South America, and Europe, and has maintained over 25 years of market
leadership in CNC Turning and Machining Centres in India.
TK Ramesh Managing Director, ADL said Our decision to set up this
plant in Gujarat is driven by our commitment to be closer to key industrial
hubs and our customers. This proximity will enable faster response times,
better service support, and deeper collaboration with our customers to enhance
their productivity.
Bill Shukla Joint Managing Director, ADL said This facility has been conceptualized as a next-generation manufacturing unit, integrating advanced processes and digital technologies. It will play a crucial role in delivering high-precision, high-performance machine tools aligned with the evolving demands of modern manufacturing.
