What Cybernetik does

Cybernetik Technologies Pvt. Ltd., founded in 1989 in Pune, India, is a privately held industrial automation company that designs, engineers, and commissions custom robotic and non-robotic automation systems for manufacturing clients globally. The company operates through six business divisions — Process Automation (powder and liquid handling), Packaging Automation (primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging), CleanTech (EV battery assembly, catalytic converters, wind turbine blade machining), Extraction (supercritical CO2 and cryogenic ethanol systems via acquired Buffalo Extraction Systems), Cybernetik Labs (custom R&D for defence, aerospace, and autonomous vehicles), and Defence (ammunition filling and handling) — and has delivered 6,000+ projects across 30+ countries with a workforce of 600+ employees. Its product portfolio spans individual equipment units (mixers, conveyors, bag depalletizers, extraction systems) through to complete turnkey production lines, supported by digital services including virtual commissioning, VR/AR-based operational support, and remote troubleshooting.

The company generates revenue primarily through custom project-based equipment sales, engineering design services, and post-installation maintenance contracts. Pricing is quote-driven and varies by specifications, with no standard SKUs or subscription tiers disclosed. Cybernetik reaches customers through direct enterprise field sales backed by regional offices in India (Pune, Chennai, New Delhi), the USA (Summerville, SC), and the UAE (Sharjah), complemented by a global channel partner network and active participation in industry trade shows. Its customer base spans blue-chip multinational manufacturers across pharmaceutical (Abbott, GSK, Cipla, Dr. Reddy's), chemical (BASF, Bayer, DOW, Tata Chemicals), food and beverage (Unilever, ITC, Coca-Cola, Hershey, Ferrero, Mondelez), EV (Hero MotorCorp, TVS Motor), wind energy (Siemens Gamesa, Suzlon), and defence and aerospace (ISRO, Bharat Electronics, Bharat Forge). The 87.5% acquisition of Buffalo Extraction Systems in June 2022 and the August 2022 launch of a fifth manufacturing facility in Raigad (augmenting capacity by 15x) are the most recent material strategic actions.
