Sharvari Prayag of Machine Maker had an exclusive interaction with Anand Mulay, Managing Director of Renuka Tools, and we bring you the excerpts. “Renuka Tools is the only company in India which manufactures Utra Precision Adjustable Cartridges”, said Anand Mulay. He added, “We are excited with the new launch of UPA cartridges, a product we believe will revolutionise the cutting tool industry. As a Make in India company, we are dedicated to offering solutions that are not only of the highest quality but also proudly manufactured in our own country to the world.”
UPA Cartridges – Reshaping The Manufacturing Dynamics
Renuka Tools‘ UPA cartridges was centre of attention during PRECITECH 2023 exhibition. These ultra precise adjustable cartridges are designed primarily for boring and intricate undercut machining. Mr Mulay emphasized the significance of these cartridges, stating, “The UPA cartridges are engineered to provide a level of precision that was previously hard to achieve. The linear scale and 5-micron least count on the diameter make them a must-have for those dealing with intricate machining processes. Furthermore, these cartridges offer both radial and axial adjustments, ensuring precise step lengths can be maintained.”
One of the significant challenges “Renuka Tools” tackled was bringing out Indian-made cartridges in the market. Anand Mulay proudly stated, “We recognised the gap in the market for high-quality, locally-manufactured UPA cartridges. We took it as a challenge, and our dedicated R&D and design teams worked tirelessly to fill that void. Today, we are the first Indian company to manufacture these UPA cartridges, which we are extremely proud of.”
Innovation Beyond Limits: Renuka Tools’ Micro Boring Cartridges Unveiled
Beyond the UPA cartridges, Renuka Tools offers a range of other innovative solutions. They have introduced micro boring cartridges, which feature an impressive 2-micron least count on the diameter, catering to even more precision needs. What sets them apart is their design, ensuring compatibility and ease of replacement with existing industry options. Anand Mulay highlighted, “We are not just about the UPA cartridges. We also offer micro boring cartridges that are engineered to perfection. Their 2-micron least count on the diameter, along with their compatibility with existing industry tools, makes them a great addition for precision-focused professionals.”
In addition to cartridges, Renuka Tools is a major player in the manufacturing of indexable special tools.

Powering Make in India: Renuka Tools’ Commitment to Local Manufacturing
Discussing the future of Indian manufacturing, Anand Mulay expressed, “Indian products are gaining recognition globally, as evident by our recent export of micro boring units to a German customer. German companies accepting Indian products is a significant achievement for us. In the next five years, we aim to export our products to different countries and plan to establish Renuka as a global brand. I am sure there is bound to be substantial growth for Make in India products globally.”
