CONTROLLED STAGES
From raw-material checks through packing and dispatch.
Our services are built around castings.
We link buyer requirements with Indian foundry capability, then support the technical decisions and controls that carry each casting through development, production, inspection and dispatch.
SERVICE 01
We match Indian foundries to the component’s real requirements, not simply to location or the lowest quotation.
Product · Material · Process · Standard · Volume · Quality requirement
SERVICE 02
A technical review checks the facility, systems and capacity behind the supplier’s offer.
SERVICE 03
Product-specific qualification establishes readiness against the needs of the casting.
Capability · Process · Quality · Capacity · Documentation · Performance
SERVICE 04
We support new components from drawing through validation and production release.
SERVICE 05
Physical monitoring of the production stages agreed for the project—not just a check on whether the order is ready.
SERVICE 06
Checks are tailored to the agreed inspection plan and component risk.
IMPROVE AND RELEASE
SERVICE 07
When a casting fails, we investigate the manufacturing process rather than only documenting the defect.
Defect identified → Process investigation → Potential root cause → Corrective action → Verification
SERVICE 08
Where technically appropriate, we help suppliers improve the systems behind repeatable casting quality.
• Process, tooling and gating improvement
• Metallurgical control and quality discipline
• Documentation and production planning
• Corrective action and supplier performance monitoring
SERVICE 09
Final-stage verification links product readiness with safe, traceable dispatch.
• Quantity, identification and packing
• Protection, pallets and strapping
• Container condition and loading sequence
• Photographic evidence and seal recording
• Shipment documentation
QCP-01 / DUCTILE IRON COVERS & GULLY TOPS
A dedicated quality control plan maps inspection characteristics, methods, sampling frequencies and acceptance criteria across the manufacturing journey, using BS EN 124-1 and BS EN 124-2 with the relevant material and testing standards.
CONTROLLED STAGES
From raw-material checks through packing and dispatch.
CONTROL STEPS
Defined checks connect production conditions to inspection records.
HOLD POINTS
Specified release gates pause work until the required evidence is accepted.
THE CONTROL JOURNEY
The 14 detailed stages are grouped here into five practical checkpoints.
01 — 03
Raw materials, charge make-up, magnesium treatment and melt-chemistry release.
04 — 05
Sand condition, moulding parameters, patterns, tooling and core making.
06 — 08
Pouring, cooling, knockout, fettling and heat treatment where applicable.
09 — 12
Appearance and marking, dimensional fit, material validation and EN 124 performance tests.
13 — 14
Surface protection, packing, container checks and dispatch release.
PROOF AT EVERY STEP
Time-stamped inspection images tied to the heat or production lot.
Clear, attributable records captured when each check is performed.
Heat, lot, pallet and container references link checks to the shipment.
