About Eklavya Techno Solutions

Electronics people who build hardness testers

We started in 2018 designing controllers and software that ran inside other manufacturers' machines. Since 2019 we have been building our own — hardness testers and universal testing machines where the electronics, software and mechanics all come from one workshop in Ichalkaranji.

Our story

From circuit boards to load frames

Most testing-machine makers start with a frame and buy the electronics in. We did it the other way round — and it shows in how our machines measure, automate and report.

2018 — An electronics company first

Eklavya Techno Solutions was founded by two electronics engineers. Our first work was control electronics and software supplied as an OEM partner to machine builders: controllers, HMIs, data acquisition and PC applications that ran inside other manufacturers' equipment. Every board, firmware and application was designed in-house.

2019 — Our first machines

Having built the brains for so many other machines, we built our own. The first ETS Rockwell hardness testers went out in 2019 with our electronics and automatic load cycle — and from there we added one product line a year: Brinell, impact, torsion, Vickers and universal testing.

03

2024 — A full machine manufacturer

Today the mechanics, electronics and software of every ETS machine are designed and built under one roof. That is why our testers lead with measurement, automation and data — touch-screen cycles, camera-based Brinell measurement, computerised UTM software — not just load frames.

How we build

Three disciplines, one workshop

Because we own every layer of the machine, a customer's request — a new scale, a report format, a PLC interface — is an engineering change, not a vendor negotiation.

Electronics

Controllers, load cells, drives and HMIs designed and assembled by ETS.

Software

Firmware, touch-screen cycles, Brinell PC and UTM applications with reports and export.

Mechanics

Frames, elevating screws in hardened ground bushes, and load systems machined in-house.

People

Two founders, one background

Both partners are electronics engineers — which is why measurement and automation come first in every ETS machine.
