Manam (pronounced
ma' num) in Tamil means the mind, which is
at once the most distinctive manifestation,
and the quintessence, of Man. Machine is analogous,
if not identical with, to mind, for it is
the mind that creates the machine.
Man is a machine
himself. Over the years, great innovators
and numerous pioneers have contributed vastly
for the development of machines that serve
mankind in innovative ways. This synergy of
man and machine has led to the inventions
of numerous machines that have helped mankind
to great lengths.
IC Engines rule every aspect
of human life
Internal combustion engines
have been developed as a result of vision
by human intelligence. Great inventors like
Leonardo da Vinci, Karl Benx, Rudolf Diesel
and Nikolaus Otto all invented different types
of internal combustion engines like the two
stroke engine, four stroke engine, etc. The
basic idea behind all the engines is that
rapid oxidation of air or combustion takes
place in a closed space or the combustion
chamber. This simple principle has given a
new direction to the way mankind moves ahead.
Internal combustion
engines work on the principle of heat combustion
in a closed space but this working in closed
space has led to a new horizon for development
of the human race. Internal combustion engines
have enabled man to run anything on four wheels
in top gear. You can now run everything from
a motorboat to an airplane with the help of
four stroke engines. The capability of these
engines is measured in horse power which means
higher the horse power; higher is the capability
of an engine to take the load and perform
well.
Moreover, the
internal combustion engines or IC engines
as they are popularly known as have contributed
vastly in the growth of various industries
like constructions, automobiles, agriculture,
marine boats, etc. This has made the internal
combustion engines to mark their presence
equivocally everywhere. The history of automobiles
begins with the invention of IC engines and
the progress and performance of today's automobiles
attributes all its credibility to improvements
in the performance of IC engines.
Apart from automobiles,
IC engines made their impression in running
construction equipment, agricultural pumpsets,
marine vessels and more. Internal combustion
engines rule every aspect of human life.
As a palindrome,
Manam symbolizes the two-way integration that
explains the momentum and growth of the company.
The development and growth of the Manam Group
is the collaboration of man and machine, working
in tandem, in double harness. The consequent
synergy has manifested itself, with the passage
of time, into distinct entities of a corporate
group, and is ceaselessly active in the process
of generating and realising ideas of value
and benefit.
