Alcon Electronics started manufacturing aluminum electrolytic capacitors for the Indian entertainment electronics industry in 1977. Over the years the focus shifted and Alcon Electronics now manufactures a large range of high CV screw terminal Aluminium electrolytic capacitors and a large variety of film capacitors for power electronics. There are 3 types of capacitors, IGBT snubber capacitors (direct mounting with different terminals styles to suit all types of IGBT modules), DC Link  film capacitors and Power film capacitors for resonant applications such as, induction heating, IPT & WPT, Healthcare (MRI, CT Scan, AED) to name only a few.    

With the comprehensive range of capacitors, Alcon Electronics now caters to the increasing needs of the power electronics sector. To improve market share in India and abroad Alcon Electronics has now completed an expansion programme which has enabled it to create additional manufacturing capacity. With this expansion a very modern and sophisticated, well equipped R & D Laboratory has been established. This will facilitate modernized product development at Alcon Electronics and will help cater to the increasing requirements of the power electronics sector and will therefore fall in line with the Governments   “Make in India “initiative. Alcon Electronics caters to the needs of the manufactures of AC drives, UPS systems, Inverter manufactures and requirements for the industries involved in the manufacture of Wireless Electric Vehicle charging, High Frequency Induction Heating Equipment, Renewable energy, Telecom Equipment, besides a host of many special purpose industrial electronic applications in HealthCare (MRI, CT scan, X-ray, AED) Welding and Pulse Magnetizing Equipment, to name  a few. 

Alcon Electronics has been able to meet the exacting quality criteria and standards of Indian as well discerning customers in the USA, Germany, Italy, UK, Japan, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, South Korea, Turkey, Russia and even the very price conscious customers in China. Alcon Electronics believes that quality has to be built into the entire manufacturing process. The finest end products are assured by using the finest inputs, proven technology, modern production processes and equipment’s and stringent quality control. Alcon Electronics is registered to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 signifying Alcon Electronics’ commitment to quality, reliability and environment protection on the one hand and to safety as per international standards, on the other.

Designing capacitors for special applications requires an in-depth understanding of the application, knowledge of changing technologies, the ability to develop innovative technology concepts and finally, incorporate these concepts into the capacitors design & manufacturing processes. This would give the users high reliability and high performance products. Alcon Electronics’ capability to make custom designed capacitors is well known. One of Alcon Electronics’ significant advantages is that every stage of product development and innovation is evaluated in terms of changing technologies and user needs. Custom designed capacitors allow the users to select the right capacitor at the most viable price. Custom-designed capacitors account for almost 50% of Alcon’s sales. It is also for this reason that Alcon today exports about 35% of its production and after the current expansion the company’s target is to export 50% of its annual production. To enable the company to work effectively towards this objective Alcon’s range of aluminium electrolytic capacitors now have CE marking and its range of DC-Link Capacitors are UL approved.
