SEMITRONIK INSTRUMENTS

Our shop is at 17, Cd Archana Indl Estate, right on Rakhial Road. If you know Ahmedabad, you know this area is old school industrial. It’s got that specific smell of metal and grease in the air. Semitronik Instruments has been operating out of this unit for a long time. We make and fix instruments, so there are always magnifying glasses and soldering irons on the tables. It is a bit cramped inside because we have so many parts stored in every available corner. We don't have a fancy showroom. Most people who come here are looking for specific technical help or a part they can't find elsewhere. The stairs up to the office are a bit narrow, and the walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but it doesn't really affect the work we do. We usually start early before the heat of the day really settles into the industrial estate. My brother and a couple of assistants help out with the day-to-day stuff. We spend a lot of time hunched over workbenches. Sometimes we have tea delivered from the stall across the street. It is a simple life, really. We focus on the precision of the instruments because that is what matters. We are not big on talking ourselves up. We just stay here in Rakhial, keeping the business going and making sure every piece that leaves the door is working exactly how it should. It is just honest, technical work.
