2. PREFACE
The management has wider scope, the Important of management expands day
to day because, there is large number of companies in small and large comes
into existence. Industrial knowledge likes a coin, which has two sides. One is
theoretical and another is practical knowledge. Both are very Important for the report.
But In fact practical knowledge is more important than the theoretical.
Industrial knowledge is an Important part of the syllabus for MBA student.
Studying only the management theories does not enough to student in the
management field. Personality of the student Industrial knowledge guide the
student and play visa role in Improving personality of the student of the
business administration and understanding regarding the theories of the
management, management Is an Important area where practical studies a lot of
conceptual clearing and also give a clear cut understanding of the application
of management principles.
This report Includes analysis of satisfaction of consumers and non-consumer for
a “SIMCON” product or brand. The Initial objective of this report Is to know
what consumers and non-consumers think about the “SIMCON”. It also creates
awareness In the management student at a grass root level about the
difficulties and high challenges In the field of marketing.
For doing this report I made one questionnaire and collecting Information by the use
of that from the market and after that I am analysis that and seen the actual
satisfaction of consumers and non-consumers for a product/brand and make
findings.

4.2 INDUSTRY INFORMATION
Plastic tanks and water tanks store substances utilized in industrial processes, such as
water, sewage, petroleum and chemicals. They are utilized in numerous industrious,
such as the agricultural, water storage tank/gas, water, waste treatment, medical,
scientific and pharmaceutical industries. The structure of the plastic tank varies.
Common tank shapes include cylindrical, square, rectangular, hexagonal and
octagonal. The heads and bottoms of plastic tanks also differ, according to their
function. Tanks can vary shape and size, even within the same type of application; for
example, water tanks can be cylindrical, square, or funnel-shaped, and can hold
anywhere from a couple gallons of water to tens of thousands.
The rotational molding process is the most versatile area of the plastic processing
industries. Rotational molding can be used for making stress free moldings consisting
of several layers of even different material. The rotational molding process is
adaptable to a wide range of plastic raw materials. Raw materials used for roto-
molded process are synthetic polymers in powder from or synthetic resin paste. With
roto-molding, parts can be molded economically in a variety of shapes and sizes,
many of them being impossible to produce by any other process. Common
rotationally molded products include shipping drums, storage tanks, material handling
pins, fuel tanks etc.
Plastic tanks have several advantages over the traditional steel tanks. Their seamless
construction provides them with greater impact strength and superior resistance to
rust, corrosion and fuel additives. These virtually indestructible tanks have a longer
lifespan than steel tanks, which can fracture and leak. Plastic tanks can easily be
molded to fit tank compartments, unlike metal tanks, and are simple to install. This
characteristic provides savings in size, iight and cost. Plastic tanks also cost less
overall than steel tanks.

PLAYERS:-
The best way to deal with an unforeseen water cut is to have a water storage tank
installed.
This tank could be a community water tank or a personal one depending on
requirements and the frequency of the cut.
The tank helps reserve water for emergency use thus not being dependent on
borrowing water or worse living without water till the problem gets resolved.
I share a list of the most reliable water storage tank companies in India in case you
wish to install one.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS CHART FOR ALL PRODUCTS:-
MANUFACTURING PROCESS:-
Rotational Molding is a process for producing hollow seamless containers
of all sizes and shapes. The process does not involve high injection
pressure or high shear rates. Black polyethylene powder of 35 mesh is
iighed and charged in the mould. The mould is heated while it is being
rotated about two perpendicular axes. Simultaneously a porous skin is
formed on the mould surface which gradually melts as the heating cycle
progresses. At the end of heating cycle a layer of homogenous uniform
thick wall is formed. The mould then enters a cooling station where forced
air/water spray cools the mould. It is then positioned in a work zone
where the mould is opened, the tank is removed and the mould is
recharged for next cycle.
Process:
The rotational moulding process for manufacturing water storage tank
consists of the following major process steps. • Loading of raw material •
Moulding of the part • Cooling or curing • Unloading of finished part Cycle
time generally varies from 6 to 10 minutes. Cycle as low as 2 minutes can
18
SILICON INDUSTRIES
be achieved and extremely large part with heavy wall requires 15 minutes
for each moulding cycle.
Loading:
Raw material in the form of powder (35 to 40 mesh) or liquid state is
loaded into the mould or cavities and mould halves are mechanically
locked together. Loading is generally accomplished before the machine
has completed its previous cycle and ready to accept the mould.
Moulding the part:
The prepared mould is next placed in a closed chamber where it is
subjected to intense heat up to 400oC while rotating the mould biacially.
Rotation is at low speed generally in the range of 1 – 40 rpm on the minor
axis and 1 – 12 rmp on the major axis. A 4:1 rotation is common hoiver
both variable speeds and variable ratios are used for moulding unusual
configuration.
Cooling or curing:
The mould containing formed part is then transferred to a second
enclosed chamber where it is subjected to a combination of water spray a
dforced air cooling while continuing to rotate biaxially. This causes the
part to cure evenly and mould to reach handling temperature.
Unloading:
Like loading this can be accomplished manually by simply opening the
mould and physically removing the parts or automatically by using forced
air to facilitate the ejection of the part.

SILICON INDUSTRIES
Chapter :- 5.1 Literature Review
1. George W. Housner [1963] discussed the relation betien the
motion of water with respect to tank & motion of whole
structure with respect to ground. He had considered three basic
conditions of tank for the [Link] fully filled, empty &
partially filled. He said that if water tank is fully filled
condition i.e. without free board then the sloshing effect of
water is neglected and if the tank is empty then there is no
sloshing effect. In the above two cases water body in the tank
will behave as one-mass structure. But in third case i.e. water
tank is partially filled, the effect of sloshing should be
considered. In that case the water body will behave as twomass
24
SILICON INDUSTRIES
structure. Finally he concluded that the maximum force to
which the half-full tank is subjected may be significantly less
than half the force to which the full tank is subjected. less than
half the force to which the full tank is subjected.
2. Medhat A. and Haroun et al. [1992] ire studied dynamic
swater storage tank-tank interaction under horizontal seismic
excitations. It has a profound effect on the amplification of
hydrodynamic forces and moments exerted on tank structure.
Computer programs are implemented to evaluate the system
response to ground earthquake motions. The results shows that
interaction of the tank and foundation swater storage tank
magnifies the tank response, and it is a factor of both the shear-
wave velocity of swater storage tank (higher magnifications for
soft swater storage tanks) as ill as the geometric properties of
tank (higher magnification for tall tanks). In addition, the
results indicate that shell flexibility has a pronounced influence
on the dynamic behavior of tanks; it contributes to the
magnification of pressures developed in liquid and exerted on
tank, thereby increasing the base shear and overturning
moment, especially for stiff swater storage tanks.
