Abstract:
Thepresent work haa been done t.o study t.he technical and economic
feasibility in set.ting up a plastic base industry using
contemporary technology considering technological limitations of
the country.
A detailed market survey was done to select the appropriate Or
optimummix that would make the project viable. Toys, lDini fans,
video cassettes were selected as products,
Technological aspect of the project includes devel"ping the
technological processes for the different components, selection of
raw materials, selection and study of t.he machineries required,
plant layout, etc.
Modernization of a locally produced injection molding machine is a
major work of the preaent study. Hydraulic and elect.ronic control
systema were designed in details tor this purpose, this enablea in
operating the machine in a aemiautomatic mode.
An organization structure was proposed to run the industry
smoothly. The structure includes 145 persons of which one director,
One general manager, two manager, 10 engineers, SO machine
operators, and others.
Financial analysis was alao done meticulously to investigate the
cconomic feasibility ot the project. Total project coat was
estimated to be Tk.lS,304,072 of which cost of machineries is
Tk.14,522,072. Financial analysis shows that annual salea of
Tk.47,705,OOOwill Cross the break even point with a significant
margin, which shows that t.he project is economically feasible.
