IDMC Limited was set up in 1978 to manufacture dairy components and equipment and to contribute in moderating their prices. IDMC was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary company of the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) in 1992.
Core capabilities
Over time, IDMC’s Make in India initiative has led to a significant growth in its manufacturing base and reduced the dependence of the domestic dairy industry on the import of a large number of diverse dairy equipment. IDMC’s metal fabrication and machining facilities are spread over approximately 21,000 square metres. The company’s automatic polishing facility together with water jet cutting and dish spinning facilities provide uniform surface finish on vessels and a cutting edge in job quality.
IDMC’s machine shop is equipped with several CNC machining centres. The machine shop caters to the machining requirement of other fabrication shops and manufactures a complete range of sanitary fittings, unions, tri-clover clamps, tees, butterfly, plug and pneumatic valves, turbo blenders, pumps, ice cream freezers, homogenizers and cup filling machines.
IDMC is a leading manufacturer of tankages, process vessels, plate heat exchangers, flow items and specialized key process equipment. A significant part of IDMC's growth has been through the Supply, Installation, Testing and Commissioning (SITC) of projects in the dairy, pharmaceuticals, beverages sector and Thermal Management Systems. IDMC forayed into turnkey projects for setting up cattle feed plants in 2011.
Design expertise
IDMC's design group has led its growth and contributed to establishing quality systems for pressure equipment according to European directive 97/23/EC, module D, duly certified by TUV Nord. IDMC has also exported engineering products with U-stamp, an accreditation by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. IDMC has QMS ISO 9001 certification for five units that manufacture metal products.
Quality Control
IDMC’s quality control laboratories have adequate in-house infrastructure and trained personnel to test and analyze raw materials, intermediate products and finished goods with speed and accuracy.
Project engineering and execution
Highly experienced engineers supervise skilled technicians to execute mechanical, electrical, process and piping installations including automation. Advanced tools such as orbital welding machines are employed to achieve welds conforming to the latest international standards. To its credit, IDMC has installed and commissioned several high capacity fully automated computer-controlled dairy, food processing and pharma plants.
Process engineering and automation
IDMC has emerged as one of the large domestic players in the packaging sector.
IDMC provides complete customized software solutions with the latest hardware and instrumentation. The SCADA systems of IDMC allow real-time MIS for both process and utilities, facilitating an effective monitoring of plant operations. A dedicated and highly skilled team of process and automation engineers provides support to the requirement of customers in the dairy and allied sectors.
Packaging
IDMC’s packaging division has a capacity to manufacture about 12000 tons of poly films and laminates. After adding a second contemporary blown film plant, a ten-colour CI flexographic printing machine and a rotogravure printing machine, IDMC has emerged as one of the large domestic players in this sector. The plant is capable of manufacturing three-layer blown film with minimum thickness tolerance for use in various industries such as dairy, food and beverages, bakery, confectionery, cosmetic, edible oils, cereals, personal care products and pharmaceuticals.
The plant is equipped with high end machines to produce a wide range of pouches (like side gussets, bottom gussets, wicket bags, stand-up, zipper, 4-panel synchronized pouches) with surface printed films and laminates. IDMC has FSSC 22000 for its plastic unit.
