Foundries are the building block for all industry sectors. The automotive industry accounts for around 30 percent of all metal castings, followed by Agriculture, Machine tools, Defence, Railways, Pipe fittings and more. The world's rising output of automobiles is a major growth engine for the foundry industry. Worldwide demand for cast metal parts is anticipated to rise along with the adoption of more energy-efficient manufacturing techniques in the coming years. And because of this, India's casting production which in 2018 was 11 million tonnes, is anticipated to expand at a compound annual growth rate of almost 12.5 percent.
One of the leading manufacturers of Steel & Iron Castings in India is Srinathji Ispat Limited (SIL). The company was established in 1989 and has embraced expertise in producing sand castings for Hydropower, Steel, Thermal power, Sugar, Cement, Automobiles and Heavy engineering industry sectors. “Srinathji Ispat was established in 1989 by my Father, with his zeal and vision and second generation management's implementation, it helped get to where it is now. Our highly skilled senior management team collaborates closely with a large pool of engineers, metallurgists, and technicians to put on a strong performance and developing many critical castings”, explains Saurabh Gupta, Owner, Srinathji Ispat.
Delivering Quality Assured Products to Clients SIL has been in business for 34 years, building a solid reputation via repeat business and word-of-mouth alone.
By offering their customers customized solutions to their engineering problems and have established a high degree of dependability and trust, they have developed a very high level of loyalty with their esteemed customers. Due to the long gestation period of their products, manufacturing setbacks at later stages could hamper customers' whole projects. As a result, they involve their clients during the manufacturing process, gives ample opportunity to see their quality at stages and eventually deliver the products as per desired specifications.
To achieve this, all products must pass numerous tests, including chemical, mechanical, microscopic, non-destructive, and destructive testing. For each PO, a quality assurance plan is created that outlines all necessary parameters and the standards that must be adhered to. When the consumer has given their approval, only then does the manufacturing process begin.
This eliminates any chance of misunderstanding or disagreement and serves as a protocol for inspection and testing between the two of them. “Quality, consistency, and timely delivery are what differentiates our company from others. We buy the best quality raw materials and are very selective on choosing our supply chain partners.
SIL has grown organically & has customers in entire length & breadth of India, while they are also exporting to the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, the Middle East, & New Zealand
We cater to almost all engineering sectors like Steel, Cement, Sugar, Automobile, Railways, Infrastructure, Energy, Defence, Oil & Gas and Machine building which gives us a diverse product range. We were the first foundry in UP to receive ZED certification under the Zero Defect Zero Effect scheme by MSME and QCI. We are also risk-loving and take up prototyping, new product development and import substitution which is extremely challenging to manufacture”, added Saurabh.
Considering the boom in the automobile industry in India, the company envisages potential in castings for the auto sector and has decided to set up a fully automated foundry with the latest technology for producing the best quality castings. SIL has grown organically and has customers in entire length and breadth of India. They are also exporting to the USA, Canada, Europe, Japan, the Middle East, and New Zealand. “We have embarked on the golden decade for India foundry with huge potential growth and expansion.
We have recently vertically integrated with CNC machining and will enhance the capacity further. We are also planning to increase production capacity in both our foundries and to automate processes simultaneously. We have the vision to double our production in the next five years”, concludes Saurabh.
