PROJECT PROFILE FOR MANUFACTURE
OF ADJUSTABLE HOSPITAL BEDS
I. Product and its uses
Adjustable hospital beds are made of steel and normally
used in Government Hospitals, Private Hospitals, and Nursing
Homes etc. There are two types of hospital beds namely;
1. Fowlers Hospital Beds and
2. General
Purpose Hospital Bed Steeds.
II. Market Potential
The demand for adjustable hospital beds is increasing due
to the following factors.
1. Increase in the number of hospitals in private sector
and their expansion
2. Increase
in number of private and government nursing homes and their
expansion
The Government is encouraging new hospitals and nursing
homes in private sectors in order to increase treatment
facilities in accordance with the development in public
health sector and as such it is likely be a steady increase
in the demand for hospital furniture. However, the growth
rate is expected to be more than 3 to 5% per year and as
such it may be ideal for the existing steel furniture manufacture
units to take up this activity for not only as a diversification
but also better capacity utilization by installing a few
balancing equipments.
III. Production Target
It is proposed to manufacture 400 Adjustable Hospital Beds
per annum.
IV. Basis and Assumptions
1. The basis for the calculation of the production capacity
is on single shift basis.
2. The cost of machinery and equipments, raw materials,
rental value of premises is taken as average prices prevailing
at present and should be verified while implementing the
scheme.
V. Implementation Schedule
It is expected to complete all the formalities and commence
the commercial production with one year.
VI. Production Details and Process
of Manufacture
The basic operations involved in the manufacture of adjustable
beds are as follows:
1.
Cutting and Bending of Pipes
2.
Cutting of M.S. Angles
3.
Cutting of Strips
4.
Welding, Riveting
5.
Grinding
6.
Assembly of elevating mechanism
7.
Painting, Baking
VII. Inspection and Quality Control
IS: 7378-1974 specifies dimensional and other requirements
of fowlers beds used in hospitals.
IS: 5039 – 1969 specifies material, shape and dimensions
for bedstead general purpose for the use in hospitals. The
above specifications may be followed for quality control.
VIII. Energy conservation
This industry is not a large-scale power consuming industry,
however maximum care should be taken in utilization of electrical
energy.
IX. Pollution Control
These types of units are is not producing any effluents
or any other polluting materials. Therefore pollution control
measures are not taken into account.
X. Production Capacity
This unit is envisaged to produce 400 No of different types
of hospital beds to the worth of Rs. 23, 85,000 per annum
