InterBiz Light Engineering R&D Centre

InterBiz has established a Research and Development centre for Light Engineering product at the light engineering cluster located at Dholaikhal to utilize and facilitate the capacity of existing Light Engineering workshops. The centre comprises of highly educated, talented, and experienced engineers. It is using the latest machining and testing facilities of TTI, BITAC, and BUET. Experts at home and non-resident Bangladeshis are associated with this project.

The centre is assisting the research works of different universities. After research, center will develop vendor from the Dholaikhal light engineering cluster members by providing the innovated technology. InterBiz will produce international standard light engineering product for home and international market at competitive price as a Buying House of Light Engineering product.

Made in Bangladesh Product

Products made in Bangladesh using local technology through R & D in cooperation with local experts, utilizing Dholaikhal facilities, with BITAC, BUET, and BCSIR serving as testing hubs and technical advisors. These import-substitute technologies are being transferred to the private sector. Most are already operational in their respective industrial areas of Bangladesh, saving a significant amount of foreign currency.

  • Vacuum Forming machine for disposable box, plate, and cup factory (2000)
  • Hydraulic Cutting machine for disposable box, plate and cup, factory (2001)
  • Plastic Sheet Line machine for disposable box, plate and cup, factory (2003)
  • Chemical Vapor Deposition machine for BUET research purpose (2002)
  • Cylinder Block for Carbamet Solution Pump for Fertilizer factory at the cost of 0.2 crore against the cost of 6 crore from Japan (2012)
  • Automatic salt Production Line to modernize existing manual conventional salt factory (2011)
  • Coffee Vending machine (2024)

Substituting Foreign Expert

Other works that include substituting foreign experts, high tech, high accuracy critical machineries maintenance, installation, and commissioning experiences:

  • In 1990, a heavy-duty, high-accuracy, high-cost Japanese horizontal boring machine weighing 16 tons was relocated from Narayanganj BIWTC workshop to Tejgaon BITAC premises without incurring damage or losing any accuracy of 0.005 mm. This machine was transferred through a ditch, the Buriganga River, and by road. As of 2024, it remains the main machine at BITAC for manufacturing heavy-duty parts with precision.
  • In 1994, BITAC designed and manufactured all machinery for a national project of the Ministry of Industries to produce paper pulp from raw jute for all paper mills in Bangladesh through R & D. Dr. Karim was a team member and project head for the installation and commissioning of the project.
  • In 2010, Dr. Karim initiated and led an expert team to solve, on an emergency basis, a dangerous radiation leakage at the only nuclear plant in Savar, Bangladesh Atomic Energy, through R & D, risking his life for national interest. This incident was discussed in the national assembly.
  • Dr. Karim initiated and led an expert team for the successful first-time local repair and maintenance of the GK project pump, avoiding the need for experts, at a cost of only 3.71 crore as opposed to expending 12 crore for Japanese experts.

Ongoing R&D

InterBiz

  • Solid Waste Disposal by Plasma Cracker Machine

    • Currently in the design phase. The methodology involves studying the literature, observing foreign plants, and using trial and test methods while complying with the existing guidelines and regulations on solid waste management in Bangladesh. The primary sections of the process, such as the feed bunker, shredder, screw feeder, valves, cooling jacket, and purging jacket of the raw material handling system, are considered straightforward. Other than the plasma torch of the plasma reactor unit, the rest can be manufactured with proper design and research work. Components like the scrubber, pump, tank, filter, condenser of the gas handling system, and the flaring system are feasible to produce locally. Additionally, electrical control system components and gas generators are available domestically.

  • Vacuum Heat Treatment Furnace

    • To manufacture international-quality metal parts, especially for machinery including automobiles, vacuum heat treatment is necessary. To enhance our Dholaikhal light engineering capacity in the field of heat treatment, an initiative to manufacture a vacuum heat treatment furnace has been undertaken. The machine will consist of a vacuum system, heating system, control system, and cooling system.
