One of Africa’s largest sugarcane milling tandems

​

Uttam Sucrotech was commissioned one of Africa’s largest milling tandems for Kakira Sugar Limited, the flagship company of the legendary Madhwani Group of Uganda.

​

The tandem consists of 5 mills of size 50” x 100”. Each of these Uttam mills weighs approximately 220 tons (equivalent to the weight of 35 African elephants) and the tandem is designed to crush 8,500 tons of sugarcane every day.

​

To avoid any re-work at project site and to ensure meticulous erection, each of these mills was pre-assembled and then dis-mantled at our manufacturing facilities and then shipped to Uganda.

​

The plant is already operating at its full capacity, a testament to the exceptional performance of Uttam's state-of-the-art equipment. This remarkable feature, seen across all plants established by us, underscores our dedication to manufacturing equipment that is not only high-quality but also operationally efficient from the very moment of start-up.
