Axiom Controls & Device

Mayapuri Industrial Area Phase I is a noisy place to spend your day. Our unit at number 22 is right in the middle of all the metal sounds and trucks backing up. We work on controls and devices here, which means a lot of time spent looking at small parts and wiring things up at the workbench. The floor is concrete and stays cold in the winter, which isn't great for the knees. We have some old desks in the corner for the paperwork, but mostly we are on our feet near the machines. It’s a practical space, not a showroom. There are grease marks on the door frames and the windows are usually too dirty to see much of the street outside. We get a lot of local workers dropping by to ask for parts or to see if we can fix something specific. Most of our days are just filled with the hum of the equipment and the sound of people loading crates into the back of small vans. We don't really have a front office person, so if the bell rings, whoever is closest to the door just wipes their hands on a rag and goes to see who it is. It’s hard work and the hours are long, but that’s just how things go in Mayapuri. We keep the spare parts in those blue plastic bins that are stacked everywhere, and we try our best to keep track of what’s in stock.
