Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Machine Manufacturing Ensured
Towards Sustainable Development Goals Alignment (SDG Goal 9), the tools and machines industry is adopting sustainability in manufacturing due to increased eco-awareness. The company is now concerned about the type of energy-consuming machinery, materials, and production processes that are employed. Green manufacturing practices, such as additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, enable cost-effective production by eliminating and conserving substantial amounts of energy and materials. Some machine manufacturers have now begun using renewable energy resources to power their factories and are developing bio-based components produced from biodegradable materials which significantly cuts carbon emissions. An emerging sustainability paradigm is the refurbishing and repurposing of old expensive pieces of industrial equipment and machines that were considered obsolete and wasteful towards eco-friendly innovations. Eco-friendly subsidization policies where the government allocates extra funds and tax cuts to growing startups are provided to promote environmentally friendly businesses towards green technologies. Businesses are granted financial incentives to protect the environment thus improving their reputation and customer trust. Sansadhan™ is a platform that enables its users to procure eco-friendly machines and tools from suppliers who practised sustainability and energy efficiency during manufacturing.The Importance of Precision Engineering in Machine Construction
