Manufacturing Automation · For Indian SME manufacturers

Never mess up on quantities. See your production in real time.

If your factory runs on Tally, Excel and WhatsApp, you already know the pain. Counts don't match. Rework eats margin. Buyers call before you do. This is the software that ends that.

Already running at SBM Industries. Built in India. Works in Hindi, Punjabi and English.

The stack that got you to ₹50 Cr won't get you to ₹200 Cr

Tally is honest. Excel is flexible. WhatsApp is everywhere. But together they leave you blind to what's actually happening on your shop floor between 9am and 6pm.

17%

of output gets re-counted

Because the paper register says one thing and the stockroom says another.

3–5 days

is how late a bad batch is caught

By then it's packed, invoiced, and halfway to the buyer.

0

is how many of your owners can see today's shift right now

Unless they're physically on the floor or calling the supervisor.

9pm

is when you finally know today's numbers

Every hour of blindness costs you in yield, overtime, and buyer trust.

What Manufacturing Automation gives you

Every step. Every quantity. Every minute. On one screen.

  • Live item counts at every step

    Raw in. Cutting. Assembly. QC. Pack. Ship. The number next to each step updates as operators mark work complete.

  • Yield leakage caught at the step

    If 100 go in and 94 come out, the dashboard flags it at that step, not three days later in the warehouse.

  • Live inventory, not end-of-day guesses

    Finished goods, WIP, and raw stock visible at any moment. The accounts team stops chasing, the owner stops asking.

  • Works with your Tally. Not against it.

    Two-way Tally integration. The accounts team keeps working the way they already work. Nothing to relearn.

  • Operators in their language

    Hindi, Punjabi, or whichever language your team speaks. Runs on any Android phone. Most operators are trained in one shift.

How we make it easy

From first conversation to live dashboard in 4 to 8 weeks

01

Map your real process

We sit with your shop floor and document every actual step, not the ERP's fiction. Raw material in. Cutting. Assembly. QC. Pack. Ship.

02

Tag each step with counts

Every step gets an input count and an output count. Operators mark quantities as they work: on phone, on tablet, or via a scanner. WhatsApp works too.

03

Watch it go live

From the first login, the dashboard updates in real time. You see where your items are, where they're stuck, and where yield is leaking.

04

Catch mistakes before they ship

When a quantity doesn't match, the system flags it at the step where it broke. Not three days later when the buyer complains.

Proof · In production today

SBM Industries runs Aquevix Manufacturing Automation every day to see their real-time production

Not a pilot. Not a pitch deck. The same software we're offering you is running on a live shop floor right now, tracking real items through real process steps, surfacing real yield leaks.

For the next generation

Dad runs the factory. Next-gen runs the dashboard.

If you've come back from an MBA or a job abroad and you're trying to modernise the family business without stepping on the founder's toes, this is your opening move.

You don't replace anything. You just add visibility. Dad keeps running the factory the way he has for thirty years. You bring a screen to the Sunday meeting that answers every question he asks before he asks it. Respect gets earned in quantities, not in arguments.

Questions

What owners ask us in the first call

Will this work with our existing Tally and Excel? +

Yes. Manufacturing Automation reads from and writes to Tally. Your accounts team keeps working the way they already work. Nothing to relearn.

Our operators aren't comfortable with English software. Will they use it? +

The operator interface is in Hindi, Punjabi, or whichever language your team speaks. It runs on any Android phone. Most operators are trained in one shift.

How quickly can we see something on screen? +

We typically have your first process step live on the dashboard within 2 weeks of project start. Full rollout across the factory: 4 to 8 weeks.

What does it cost? +

It depends on the number of process steps, operator licences, and integrations. We keep pricing transparent on the call. No bait-and-switch. Most factories recover the cost inside 6 months from yield improvement alone.

Can we see it running somewhere real? +

Yes. SBM Industries uses Manufacturing Automation daily. We can arrange a walkthrough with their team on request.

Tell us what you're trying to do. We'll tell you if we can help.

First conversation is thirty minutes. No pitch deck. You leave with either a clear next step — or an honest "we're not the right team for this". Both are useful.

  • Response within one business day
  • Mutual NDA available on request
  • We'll say no if we're not a fit
