Introduction

The manufacture of auto tubes and flaps is possible well within the investment limit of small-scale industries and a good number of such units are working successfully in different parts of the country. Automobile continues to be the most popular conveyance for the masses and this is going to be so also for a long time to come. In a developing country like India, automobile forms an important mode of transport.


Market Potential

As auto continues to be the most popular mode of transport both in urban and rural areas, the demand for auto tubes and flaps is likely to increase day by- day. Moreover, this is a labour intensive type of unit and can be located in rural areas solving rural unemployment problem, Small Scale Auto Tubes and flaps units can also function as ancillaries to establish large scale manufacturers.


Basis and Presumptions

  • The estimates are drawn for a production capacity generally considered techno-economically viable for a model type of manufacturing activity.
  • The information supplied is based on standard type of manufacturing activities, utilizing conventional techniques of production.
  • The cost in respect of land and building, machinery and equipment, raw materials and the selling price of the finished products etc. are those generally obtained at the time of the preparation of the Project Report.
  • Where as some names of manufacturers/suppliers of machinery and equipments, raw materials are indicated at the end of the profile, these are by no means exclusive or exhaustive.

Implementation Schedule

In the project, land and building has been taken as rented and as such there is no problem of acquisition of land and other formalities. The entire plant and machinery and other equipments have to be purchased and installed. It may take about 3 to 6 months on an average for a concern to go into regular production.


Technical Aspects

Process of Manufacture

Auto tubes are manufactured by moulding method. First of all rubber along with other materials is properly mixed in the two roller mill or a ban bury mixer. This compounded rubber is fed into the extruder and the rubber compound takes the shape of long tube, then proper length of this green tube is cut and tube valve is fitted in this green tube and the end of the tubes are jointed by means of butt joining machine. This green tube is vulcanized in the mould having air pressure inside. After proper vulcanizing it is tested by filling specific amount of air inside for leakage, if any.

Auto flaps are manufactured by the pressure moulding technique in the mould, after making the rubber compound on a two roll mixing mill.
