More recently, a 19 km [[Conveyor system|overland conveyor]] system supplied to the Utkal Alumina project included the longest single flight [[Conveyor system|conveyor]] system to be installed to date within Indian territory.<ref>{{Cite web |date=May 1, 2021 |title=India’s longest single flight conveyor represents another TAKRAF milestone in materials handling |url=https://im-mining.com/2021/05/01/indias-longest-single-flight-conveyor-represents-another-takraf-milestone-materials-handling|access-date=July 20, 2022 |website=International Mining}}</ref> The project was originally conceived by Bateman India (at the time a sister entity of DELKOR India with its turnkey business being later integrated into the DELKOR India business unit of TAKRAF Group.

Two TAKRAF high-capacity bucket-wheel reclaimers commissioned at a privately operated port are amongst the largest of such machines operating in India, considering boom length and reclaiming capacity.<ref>{{Cite web |date=January 10, 2019 |title=TAKRAF wins three orders from India steel, energy, cement and infrastructure group |url=https://im-mining.com/2019/01/10/takraf-wins-three-orders-india-steel-energy-cement-infrastructure-groupirm/|access-date=July 20, 2022 |website=International Mining}}</ref>
