About Mehta Tubes Limited

Mehta Tubes Limited is an established copper and copper-alloy tube manufacturer operating under the MEXFLOW®

brand. Our Umbergaon facility (Unit II) runs modern tube-making operations — melting, casting, extrusion, pilgering,

drawing, annealing, finning and finishing — serving HVAC, medical gas pipeline, plumbing and industrial applications.

We invest in current manufacturing technology and in the people who run it, and we manage our operations on

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

About the Role

You will plan and schedule production so the right tube is made in the right quantity at the right time — balancing orders, capacity, material and tooling. You'll turn the order book into workable shop-floor schedules, track progress,

chase material and manage priorities, largely on Dynamics 365 Business Central. It's a central-nervous-system role:
