Hind High Vacuum Co. Pvt. Ltd. (HHV), one of the global leaders in vacuum
and thin film technology, won an award from the Defence Innovation Organisation
(DIO), Department of Defence Production, Ministry of Defence, Government of India,
at the recently concluded ‘DEFCONNECT 2.0. The award was presented in a
glittering ceremony at the Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi by Defence minister Rajnath
Singh.
HHV had participated in the Open Challenge 3.0 organised
by iDex (Innovating for Defence Excellence), an initiative of DIO, and bagged a
‘Certificate of Recognition’ for its indigenised & innovative work on Laser
Safety Coatings for the Defence Industry.
iDex, funded and managed by DIO, aims at creation of an
ecosystem to foster innovation and technology development in Defence and
Aerospace by engaging Industries and provide them grants/funding and other
support to carry out R&D which has good potential for future adoption for
Indian defence and aerospace needs. Through the iDEX Open Challenge, it creates opportunities
for innovators to propose ways for harnessing their technology capabilities to
strengthen India’s defence capabilities.
“Today, lasers can be found in a multitude of
applications especially laser guns used in defence. Because of the high-power
densities that lasers achieve, they pose a serious risk to eyes and skin. Laser
Safety Coatings are designed to protect human eyes from laser beams and are
categorised into several hazard classes 2M, 3R, 3B and 4, depending on their
power limits. The unprotected human eye is extremely sensitive to laser
radiation and can be permanently damaged from direct or reflected beams.” said
Prasanth Sakhamuri, Managing Director, HHV. ““In this innovation, HHV team at
Bangalore developed unique design of optical coatings on glass substrates that
can be used for Laser Safety Glasses to be worn by defence personnel and Laser
Safety Coated Periscope Prisms used in armoured carriers, Submarines and
battle tanks providing complete protection to the personnel .”
“We are extremely proud of this prestigious recognition
from the Ministry of Defence on our ‘Made in India’ laser coating technology.
HHV has in-house design, prototype and high-volume optics and thin-film coating
manufacturing facility which keeps costs competitive. At present laser coating
technology is available only with technologically advanced nations in Europe
and the USA.” added Prasanth Sakhamuri.
