1.3METHODOLOGY ADOPTED:
The success of a research largely depends on technologies, data and methodology
used. The appropriate methodology will improve the validity of findings and the
following methodologies are used for the study:
PRIMARY DATA:
Collected by discussion with internal official of the company.
Discussion with employees and workers of the company.
Discussion with respective HR department of the company.
SECONDARY DATA:
CASTING:
“Casting is a manufacturing process by which a liquid material is usually poured
into a Mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then
allowed to sodify. The soldified part is also called as a casting, which is ejected
or broken out of the mold to complete the process.”
Casting material are usually metals or various cold setting material
that are after mixing two or more components together.
Example: concrete, plaster, clay.
The Indian foundry industry manufacturers metal cast components for
applications in Auto, Tractor, Railways, Machine tools, Sanitary, Pipe Fittings,
Defence, Aerospace, Earth Moving, Textile, Cement, Electrical, Power
machinery, Pumps / Valves, Wind turbile generators etc. Foundry Industry has a
turnover of approx. USD 19 billion with export approx. USD 2.5 billion.
However, Grey iron castings have the major share i.e. approximately 68% of
total castings produced.
Manpower:
The total Manpower in Foundry Sector is approx. 500,000 Directly & 150,00,00
indirectly. The foundry sector is highly labour intensive & currently generates
employment for 2 Millions directly & indirectly mainly from socially & economically
weaker sections of society. It has potential to generate additional employment of 2
Million in next 10 years.

The Indian auto component industry has been navigating through a period of rapid
change with great elan. Driven by global competition and the recent shift in focus of
global automobile manufacturer, business rules are changing and liberalization has had
sweeping ramification for the industry. The global auto company is estimated at US$1.2
trillion the Indian auto component sector has been growing at 20% per annumsince 2000
and is projected to maintain the high growth phase of 15%-20% till 2015
Today India has become the outsourcing hub for several global automobile
manufacturers.
Innovations and cost are holding the key to meet the global challenge of rising demand
from developed countries and competition from other emerging economies. Several large
Indian auto component manufacturers are already gearing to this new reality and are in
the process of substantially investing in capacity expansion, establishing partnership in
India and Abroad, acquiring companies overseas and setting up green field venture,
R&D facilities and design capabilities.
The total turnover of Indian automobile industry is estimated at US$ 9, bn in 2006. The
industry has the resource to manufacture the entire range of auto products of auto
products required for vehicle manufacturing, approximately 20,000 components. The
entry of global manufacturer in India during the 1990’s enabled induction of new
technology, new products, improved quality and better efficiencies in operations. This In
turn effectively acted as a catalyst to the local development of the component industry.
The Indian automobile industry is extensive and highly fragmented. Estimated by the
department of heavy industries, government of Indian, indicates there are over 400 large
firm who are part of the organised sector and cater largely to the original equipment
manufacturers.
Around 4% of the companies operating in auto component segment cater to 80%of the
demand emanating from OEM’s within the unorganised segment, apart from supplying
in the after-market, a number of players are also involved in job work and contract
manufacturing.
The regional base of auto component manufacturers is mostly concentrated in the west,
north, and south of India. This regional concentration of auto mobile manufacturers of
has been dictated by the emergence of automobile manufacturers in this regions. The set-
up of Tatamotors, bajaj, Mahindra and Mahindra and TVS in the year 1950&1960 laid
the foundation for auto component manufacturers in the west and south, whilst the entry
of maruti during 1980’s created the base in the north.
Production of auto ancillaries was estimated at US$10 bn in 2005-06 and has been
growing at a robust 20% per annum since 2000. Exports of auto components have been
strong growing at 24% per annum since 2000. This growth in exports if sustained for
another five years will see India’s auto component exports will touch US$5 bn by 2011
from the US$ 2 bn at present.
Till the 1990’s, the auto component industry was solely dependent on the domestic
automobile industry to drive the demand for ancillary products. This composition of the
market however is undergoing a radical change with global outsourcing gaining
momentum. In recent times, exports has emerged as a significant driver of growth, and
the demand emanating from global OEM’s has opened new opportunities for the auto
component industry in India.
Share of exports in total production has risen from 10% in 1997 to 18% in 2006. The
composition of exports in terms of the proposition of OEM and after market has also
undergone a sweeping change since past decades.

3.5MANUFACTURING PROCESS:
In this plant resin coated sand is manufactured. In manufacturing the castings there are n
number of processes which are to be followed by different suppliers and by different
methods. In cast iron and SG iron one type of casting is greensand molding method,
second one is investment casting, it is completely machine mold casting and third one is
shell mold casting which is followed by Abhishek Alloys Pvt ltd.
Shell molding process is a typical type of process where to manufacture the molds we
need to manufacture separate type of sand, in greensand molding the seashore sand will
be bought added some other molding and they will be molded. Greensand molding is
particularly cold process. Shell molding process is a hot process, everywhere heating is
involved. Before manufacturing the mold sand is to be manufactured. There is a typical
type of sand which has to be used for shell molding process. We cannot use ordinary
sand. The basic raw material for shell molding process is seashore sand. When the
seashore sand is bought it is first inspected whether it is as per requirement or no. type of
inspection of sand will be sand grain size which has been received or whether sand has
got moisture content in it. There are also n number of parameters which are to be
checked. Once the parameter are checked then the sand will be ready for manufacturing
of resin coated sand. The process will start like some sand will be put in an equipment
called as Muller (mixer), but there will one condition that the sand should be in a dry
condition, no moisture content is allowed in that, so purely dried sand will be put in the
mixer and upon that a chemical is put called as phenol resin. Phenol resin is a petroleum
chemical product, it’s very inflammable one because it catches fire very fast. Now
phenol resin is mixed with sand and will be rotated for few minutes as per the cycle time.
During this period, continuously hot air is passed in the mixer. The temperature of the
hot air will be around 180-200 degree Celsius. When hot air is passed inside the mixer
the sand and resin will be cured, when it get cured the sand will automatically come out
in a brownish condition and that particular sand is useable for shell molding process. The
ready sand will have its own parameters which are to be checked, like the strength of the
sand, resin is as per the requirement or not, how much time it has been mixed inside the
mixer is correct or not, the hot air which is passed is correct or not. These things are
known as process parameters. If all the things are maintained properly then we will get
perfect resin coated sand. When the sand comes out lump formation will never be
allowed. It should be in a sand flow. Once the sand is approved by the manufacturing
unit, then it goes to the next unit.
Shell molding plant. There are various type of machinery. On the machine the pattern
which is made will be a metal one. Pattern can be manufactured by wooden and
aluminium also. In shell molding process the pattern should be of metal. If wooden or
aluminium pattern is made it will not work. Now first they will mount the pattern on the
machine. Then the pattern has to be again preheated. The pattern will get heated up to
350-400 degree Celsius when the pattern gets heated the resin coated sand will be put on
the pattern. When resin sticks to the hot pattern, then the cavity is formed inside as per
the pattern shape. As per the casting requirement the pattern is prepared. Once the cavity
is formed, again it has to get cured inside so in shell molding process heating is a must so
now the particular shell is taken out, top and bottom part is removed, both the shell are
produced and they are assembled in one. If we want the hollow type in the casting then
we have to put the core inside before assembling it. So again the core has to be
manufactured on another machine and should be covered with the top shell. Once it is
covered then it will go to the next unit. Based on the requirements the shells are
produced. This plant is the heart of the shell molding process. If the shells are rejected
then automatically castings are rejected. So again the parameters are to be checked. Once
the shells are produced they are kept in a box covered with waste sand to ensure shell
should not get tilted. It’s just a support to the molds, and in that mold hot metal is poured
inside. Once hot metal is poured inside the casting will come out.
Pouring is done in this unit. There are certain raw materials like pig iron etc. those things
are put in a furnace which is electrically fired, normally raw materials will be in a solid
condition, and here the solid condition raw materials should become a liquid condition
by heating process. The liquid metal should have the required temperature which is very
important. Unless all the parameters are taken care of the end product will not be OK.
Once liquid metal is ready, the operator will check the temperature of the metal by an
instrument. The temperature cannot be less than 1400 degree Celsius. In quality
management process every process should be defined in the organisation. It is to be

documented. The operator has to maintain the rules mentioned in the document. Once the
temperature is attained then it is ready for processing. Chemical parameter of the metal
should also be checked. Then the liquid metal chemical composition has to be verified
like how much carbon percent is there, silicon percent is there etc. there are 24 elements
in that. So all the 24 elements should be checked, before pouring the metal. There is a
specific equipment to check the elements known as spectrometer. Some sample has to be
put on the spectrometer machine and within the fraction of 20 seconds all the 24 metals
will be shown on the screen. A laser is passed inside and it will verify the elements
covered in the sand. Blindly the operator or the supervisor cannot pour the metal unless
he checks that chemical composition. The chemical composition will be defined and
from that the operator will come to know whether it is correct or not. The lab in-charge
should ensure that the result is passed to the production department immediately. Once
the composition is displayed he takes it for next process that is pouring. Before pouring
he will ensure if any impurities are there in the liquid metal. If impurities are poured in
the casting, there it will get rejected. The operator removes all the impurities which is
known as slag. Slag is an impurities in the liquid metal. The impurities are removed and
the pure hot metal is poured. This metal will be taken in small ladder weighing about 30-
35kgs of metal. Two operators will go to the molds and start to pour. Once the pouring is
done then the metal cannot be removed from that because it has to be kept for few certain
time to get solidify, and once the metal get solidified the mold will be broken and casting
will be taken out. The temperature of the casting will be around 400-450 degree Celsius.
Even the time of solidification has to be defined. It is an important process parameter.
There will be a specific quality requirement of the casting called as hardness of the
casting. The hardness of the casting depends upon the time kept for solidification. In-
process parameter are very important, once the casting is taken out it is taken for next
process. The next process is to remove from some of the extra material observed in the
casting. It is removed by grinding process and the actual casting sheet as per the
customer requirement is bought. Now finally the casting will be ready for dispatch.
