Accura’s Journey

1990

Accura Engineering Works established by P. V. Phadnis

1997

Nilesh Phadnis officially joined as proprietor (supply made to Cipla, Glenmark, Wockhardt, Lupin – Stainless Steel fabricated equipment for pharmaceuticals)

1998

The first premise of 3 units purchased in an industrial estate (Small label Counters, Packing Line conveyors, SS Stirrers & Elevators, besides fabricated, tailor-made SS equipment supplied)

2003

Beginning of the year, first prominent export order – for fabricated Stainless Steel items & pallets  – in Oman – Mr. Hamlai, the Chairman & MD of the Omani client company introduced – pivotal order that enabled Accura to go for MIDC plot purchase

2003

MIDC plot purchased and manufacturing facility built – Accura Pharmaquip Pvt. Ltd. officially formed (9th December 2003)

A step towards realizing the dream of converting Accura’s fabricating unit to machine developing and manufacturing establishment for the pharmaceutical industry, to be exported world-wide, to be made a an export oriented unit, to make inroads into R&D for innovating technology in-house.

2004-2014

UK export in collaboration with a Birmingham based engineering facility – fabricated items required for process equipment were supplied.

2006

First manual machine manufactured – Tablet & Capsule Inspection Machine launched – Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories – the first 2 units supplied & installed… a repeat order of another 2 units was placed by them – regular supply continued globally (as of now 480 + installed)

2008

Tablet Elevator – Acculift developed – pneumatically operated, automatic – domestic and international supply and installation – Renamed Drona in 2024 (with a facelift & enhanced speed)

2016-2022

Induction Seal Integrity Inspection Machine (automatic) – iVA T120 – 2nd manufacturer in the world to develop such a system successfully … The limitations in thermal imaging technology caused the machine to fall short of complete satisfaction to the client, so, after the last order in 2022, Accura  suspended manufacturing of IVA T120 until further development / upgrade.

2017-2019

for ITC, 28 units, automatic Soft gel capsule inspection machine – Quno developed

In the meantime, we heard from clients that Indian machines – dated, manual – so diverted effort to development automatic.

2019

Netra VS6 launched – first Automatic TCI from India

2023

Brahmi – another automatic TCI
