Delta Electronics India Begins Krishnagiri Plant Expansion – Asia Pacific

Delta Electronics India held a ground-breaking ceremony for the expansion of its manufacturing site in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu in the presence of the state’s Chief Minister Thiru MK Stalin. The company also unveiled a new state-of-the-art smart manufacturing line.

Speaking on the occasion, Stalin said, “I appreciate Delta Electronics’s contribution to the industrial development of the Hosur region. I am particularly delighted about the inauguration of your factory’s new automated production line and its latest expansion. Tamil Nadu stands as India’s leading electronics manufacturing and export hub, and I am confident that our collaboration between Delta Electronics and the Government of Tamil Nadu will further strengthen the state’s growth.”

The newly-unveiled smart manufacturing line features Delta’s “Inline Management Solution Line Manager,” which facilitates automated production line changeovers and data-driven decision making through smart-line configuration, equipment management and materials logistics coordination in real-time. The advanced production line is also equipped with Delta’s own industrial automation technologies, such as 6-axis articulated robots, 4-axis SCARA robots, servo motion systems, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and industrial networking switches. This entire smart automation ecosystem has delivered up to 95 percent increase in productivity in the production of power supplies for home appliance applications.

Jimmy Yiin, Executive Vice President—Global Business Operations, Delta Electronics Inida, said, “Today’s expansion is a landmark milestone in Delta’s long-term commitment to the national ‘Make in India’ initiative. Our Krishnagiri manufacturing site has been strengthening India’s role within our global manufacturing capabilities since 2020, and we express our deepest gratitude to the Indian government, as well as to the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Thiru MK Stalin for the invaluable support to our local endeavours. Equally important is our people—by creating a safe and vibrant housing ecosystem, we ensure that our employees thrive along with our business.”

Spread across 95 acres, the Krishnagiri campus, currently consisting of four large-scale factory buildings, is a major manufacturing hub for Delta. The site is mainly focused on the production of high-efficiency power supplies and DC brushless fans for a broad range of industrial and commercial applications, as well as telecom power systems, industrial automation solutions, data centre infrastructure and solutions for electric mobility. The two upcoming factory buildings will expand manufacturing capacity in those segments for both domestic and global markets.

Benjamin Lin, President, Delta Electronics India, said, “Delta’s Krishnagiri site is a symbol of India’s excellence in manufacturing, innovation, talent and sustainability. Moreover, our newly-established smart manufacturing line is a testament to Delta’s unique prowess in industrial automation hardware-software integration and in eco-friendly production. Beyond manufacturing, our investment here also reflects Delta’s commitment to advance local skills and create opportunities that benefit both industry and society.”

In line with Delta’s global sustainability commitments, the Krishnagiri manufacturing site’s operations are currently powered with up to 53 percent renewable energy sources, including a 6,9MWp solar rooftop system, as well as wind power procurement. Furthermore, an 1,800 KLD (kilolitre per day) water treatment plant system and a rainwater harvesting infrastructure support the site’s water conservation efforts while a waste management mechanism strictly follows CPCB-certified practices.
