Hyderabad: THK India Pvt Ltd, a distinguished producer of linear motion guides and subsidiary of THK Co Ltd, Japan, has broken ground for an additional plant in Sri City. With an investment of Rs 300 crore, THK India’s new facility is expected to be operational shortly and would generate over 250 direct and indirect employment opportunities.
The existing plant, operational since November 2021, already employs around 400 people and manufactures linear motion guides and high-quality ball screws. This expansion aligns with the company’s strategic response to the surging demand both domestically and overseas. On Tuesday, the groundbreaking ceremony was conducted with great auspice, symbolising the commencement of construction for the new facility.
On the occasion, Akihiro Teramachi said, “We are investing in a major expansion to meet the growing demand for our linear motion guides. As part of this development, a new workshop and a centralised delivery centre will be built inside the current Sri City factory premises. The goal of this strategy is to increase output, make operations easier, and eventually make customers happier. The Sri City site has extra benefits; it’s a route for exports to Europe, and it sets THK India up for possible future growth into African markets.
