SICCO Engineering: Transforming conveyor systems with specialised solutions
Articles- Sep 27,25
For over 41 years, SICCO Engineering’s journey in the conveyor industry has been defined by one guiding principle: specialisation over generalisation
At a time when most small-scale industries were taking on every possible job, SICCO Engineering made the deliberate choice to focus on building expertise in roller conveyor systems. That decision has not only shaped its identity but also positioned it as a trusted name in industrial conveyor solutions, says E V Vasavan, Managing Partner, SICCO Engineering, in this interview.
Pioneering innovation: The uncaged sheet metal bearing
One of our earliest breakthroughs was the development of the uncaged sheet metal bearing, specifically designed for Gravity Roller Conveyors. This innovation solved a widespread problem faced by industries using gravity conveyor systems and became a defining milestone in our growth.
Expanding the conveyor portfolio
Over the years, we have built a comprehensive range of conveyor systems and rollers—from sheet metal bearing rollers to high-capacity chain-driven conveyors, accumulation conveyors with PLC controls, and curved chain-driven conveyors. To support diverse industrial needs, we have also engineered auxiliary equipment such as weighing conveyors, lifting tables, and turntables for efficient packing and processing lines. Today, our conveyors and systems power the production lines of leading automobile manufacturers, tier industries, and electronics assembly plants. From computer and television assembly lines to highly specialized polyester film manufacturing setups, our solutions are synonymous with durability and efficiency.
Specialisation in polyester film industry solutions
Our Slit Roll Conveyor system for polyester film manufacturers has set industry benchmarks. We have engineered a full suite of integrated systems, including: weighing conveyors, turntables and lifting tables, waste roll cutting guillotines (automatic inline), fully programmable stretch wrapping machines, automated label applicators, Jumbo roll stands with lifting cranes.
Breakthrough in automation: The stretch wrapping machine
In 2024–25, we proudly launched a fully automatic roll stretch wrapping machine with an integrated automatic label applicator—a first-of-its-kind innovation in the country. This achievement reflects not only our technical depth but also our commitment to staying ahead in automation and advanced manufacturing.
Commitment to quality and customer success
What sets us apart is that every product we develop is an improvement over existing industry designs. We welcome challenges, whether it is enhancing product quality, customizing solutions, or innovating for efficiency. At the same time, we continue to face the industry-wide challenge of unhealthy competition from substandard products. Our conviction remains strong: whenever we get the opportunity to demonstrate our engineering solutions, customers experience the clear difference in performance and reliability.
Looking beyond conveyors
While conveyor systems will always be our foundation, we are preparing to expand into pressure vessels, chemical equipment, sugar machinery, and other heavy industrial applications in the future. Our vision is to extend our expertise in precision engineering and robust design into new domains where quality and reliability matter most.
We acknowledge the positive initiatives of the government, particularly in defense manufacturing. However, the real impact will be seen when small-scale industries receive better guidance and access to opportunities, enabling them to leverage their skills and innovation in national growth.
From humble beginnings top pioneering innovations, our story has always been about solving real industry problems, improving designs, and setting higher standards. As we step into the future, our commitment remains the same: to engineer superior, reliable, and innovative solutions that keep industries moving forward.
