INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Metal consumption has been one of the main driving causes behind industrialization. Steel has
been in the top position among metals. Steel is both a raw material and an intermediary product,
hence its production and consumption are frequently viewed as indicators of a nation's economic
success. Therefore, it would not be understating the case to say that the steel industry is the
backbone of any economy and has always been at the forefront of industrial advancement. Major
producers, main producers, and minor producers make up the three categories. Three
categories—major producers, main producers, and minor manufacturers—are used to classify the
Indian steel sector.

Steel production is the process of turning iron ore into steel, which is basically an iron-carbon
alloy. In some circumstances, this process includes turning that metal into partially produced
goods or recycling scrap metal. The need for more easily produced, stronger metals gave
development to the steel industry. Modern economies are dependent on railroads, cars, girders,
bridges, and a number of other steel items, which were made possible by developments in steel
manufacturing during the first part of the 19th century.

Three steps form the basis of the modern steel-making process: primary, secondary, and tertiary.
Iron must first be melted in order to produce steel. Other ingredients like alloying agents and
solvating gases are added or eliminated through the secondary steelmaking process. Casting into
sheets, rolls, or other forms is a step in the tertiary steel-making process. For each stage, a variety
of techniques are available.

There are two primary methods used to make steel: either a blast furnace or an electric arc
furnace. The blast furnace is the initial method of turning iron oxides into steel. Pig iron is
manufactured in the blast furnace using coke, iron ore and limestone. The electric arc furnace
differs from the blast furnace in that it turns scrap steel, direct reduced iron, and/or pig iron into
molten steel through the application of an electric current to the materials.

MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENTS

The gear, tools, and equipment known as "foundry equipment" are used in foundries and metal
casting facilities to carry out various duties and requirements. There are a variety of foundry
systems and equipment on the market that are applied for purposes like automation, mold, core,
and sand manufacturing, laboratory, safety, and environmental conservation, testing and
inspection, cleaning, and finishing, among several others.

The items that follow are some of the most crucial pieces of foundry equipment:

 Laboratory
 Mold
 Core and sand
 Safety and environmental
 Cleaning and finishing
 Maintenance;
 Packaging and finishing
 Melting;
 Pouring and heat treatment equipment
 Peripheral;
6
  Testing and inspection
 Software & management system.

Proper usage of foundry equipment may result in a number of benefits.

Several of the major advantages include;

 The foundries has the capacity to automate routine procedures and systems.
 Assist to improve casting and production output.
 Risky tasks like pouring and degading can be performed by robotic devices.
 Decrease the probability of errors while improving productivity, output quality, and
production overall.
 Increase the functionality and general service life of devices and systems.
 Protection of the environment and safety.
 To simplify procedures and improve performance, different tasks and functions can be
combine.

Die casting, investment casting, and other metal-working processes need foundry equipment and
supplies. between the foundry supplies and equipment are;

 Specialty sands and additives

 Mixing and molding equipment
 Ovens, Ladles
 Transporters
 Metals and alloys
 Chemical binding systems
 Filters
 Abrasives

7
Some of the important machineries used for the purpose of melting the materials;

Crucible furnace

One of the initial types of melting ovens was a crucible furnace. It is a container that may be
made out of any materials able to overcoming extremely high melting temperatures. The method
used to remove the molten metal from the crucible differentiates these ovens.

 Tilted furnace: The pouring metal into a mould by tilting the crucible.
 Metals are ladled out of the crucible in a bale-out furnace.
 Lift-out furnace: For direct pouring, the crucible and metal are both removed from the
furnace.

Cupola furnace

In iron foundries, the cupola furnace was the primary melting equipment. The cupola furnace's
widespread use as a cast iron melting unit is a result of a number of special characteristics.

The cupola is one of the rare melting techniques that is continuous in operation, provides
excellent melt rates, had relatively low melting costs, and is simple to operate.

Electric arc furnace

In an electric arc furnace, steel scrap is heated and melted by the heat of an electric arc striking
between the electrodes of the furnace and the metal bath. Direct (DC) and alternating (AC)
electric currents are the two types that can be employed in electric arc furnaces. Steel is
frequently produced in three face alternative electric arc furnaces with graphite electrodes.

The ability of electric arc furnaces to manage charges that consist of up to 100% scrap separates
them from other furnace types. Electric arc furnaces produce around 33% of the crude steel that
exists daily.

8
The following steps take place in operating an electric arc furnace:

 Scrap charge of it;

 Melting;
 Sampling and chemical analysis of the melt;
 Oxidizing slag formation;
 Oxidation of C, P, Mn, Si, and Al;
 Sampling and temperature measurement;
 De-slagging;
 Basic slag formation; and
 Deoxidizing.

Induction furnace

A metal is heated by induction in an electrical furnace known as induction furnace. Induction

furnaces are used to melt iron and steel, copper, aluminum, and precious metals. Their weight
capacities range from less than 1 kg to 100 tones.

The inadequate capacity for refining is the main drawback associated with employing induction
furnaces in factories. Some alloying elements may be lost because of oxidation, therefore they
must be brought back to the melt. Charge materials must be free of oxides and possess their own
composition.

TOOLS AND COMPONENTS

Shovels, riddles, rammers, slicks, lifters, swabs, bellows, trowels, gate cutters, gaggers, molding
boxes, and molding machines are some of the important foundry tools and equipment.

9
Hand tools

The following hand tools are commonly employed in factories for making the mold.

Shovel

A shovel is formed up of a square pan with a wooden handle within. It can be used at the plant
for mixing and transferring the sand from one area to another.

Riddle

A regular wire mesh riddle is fixed to a circular, square hardwood frame. The molding sand gets
cleaned using it.

Rammer

A hand rammer may be made of metal or wood. The sand for bench molding is packed and
pressed with the help of the short rammer.

Slick

Slicks are tools that have two ends: a flat on one and a spoon on the other. Once the pattern is
finally removed from the mold, it can be utilized to repair and polish the surface.

Lifter

A lifter is made of thin steel sections that vary in widths and lengths, with one end bent at a right
angle. It is used to clean out depressions in the mold and smooth them out.

Swab

A simple swab has a little brush made from long hemp fibers. A bulb swab includes an open end
with a soft hair brush and a rubber bulb to hold the water. Prior to the pattern being removed, it is
used to moisten the sand around the pattern.

10
Bellow

To get rid of loose sand particles from the mold's cavities and surface, a hand-operated bellow is
utilized.

Trowel

It is made up of a hardwood handle and a metal blade. Small tools such as trowel of various
forms are used to smooth over the parting surface of the mold as well as to complete and fix
mold gaps.

Gate cutters

It is a thin sheet which is formed like a U-shape. It is used to cut the mold's swallow trough,
which acts as a path for the hot metal.

Gaggers

Iron rods having one or both ends bent are found. These support hanging bodies of sand and
assist to reinforce the sand in the molding box's top.

Molding boxes

The sand molds are produced in flasks, which have been created as boxes that are open at the top
and bottom. They are made up of two sections, which are attached together by dowel pins. Cope
is the term used for the topmost part, and drag for the bottom. The center piece of a three-part
flask is commonly referred to as the cheek. These flasks can be made from metal or wood

Molding machines

These are some of the types of molding equipment:

11
Jolt device

Sand is driven into the mold using this device. Sand gets rammed by this machine with greater
force at the pattern face and less force at the mold's rear.

Squeezing machine

Sand is driven into the mold using this machine; it is softer on the pattern face and more firms at
the back. For swallow patterns, it is very useful.

Jolt squeeze machine

Sand in the mold is equally hard due to this device.

Sand slinger

It is used to pack sand inside the mold evenly.

Diaphragm molding machine

It serves as the basis for the flask's sand in accordance ramming and hardness.

Plate stripping machine

It is used to generate the mold pattern.

MANUFACTURING

Casting is the method of placing liquid metal into a hollow mold in metalworking, allowing it to
cool, and then letting it harden. Casting is often employed for producing intricate shapes that
would be hard or costly to produce with alternative methods.

Iron making

This is the initial stage in the production of pour steel. In this process, a blast furnace is
employed to melt raw materials such iron ore, coal, and lime. This leads to the creation of molten
iron, also referred to as hot metal, which is still brittle because of its 4 - 4.5 percent amount of
carbon and other impurities. After that, such items have to be removed.
12
Primary steel making

Either BOS or EAF methods have been employed to eliminate any leftover substances. The
molten iron in a convertor is combined with recycled or scrap steel in the BOS method. High
temperature oxygen circulates through the metal, which decreases the carbon content to between
0 and 1.5%.

The EAF method involves passing scrap steel through highly powerful electric arcs, which melt
the metal and produce high-quality steel. By either of these two ways, the steel obtained at the
end of this step is commonly referred to as raw steel.

Secondary steel making

In this method, different treatments are applied to the raw steel to generate steel of various
grades. This might include altering the temperature, adding or eliminating certain components, or
using different methods. These include;

o Stirring
o Changing the temperature
o Injecting a ladle
o Removing gases
o CAS-OB

Continuous casting

This step involves casting molten steel into molds that have cooled, causing the steel to solidify.
The steel is removed from the mold using guided rollers when it is not hot, afterwards which it is
allowed to cool and fully solidify. Then, depending on the applications—beems, slabs, billets,
and so on. It is cut to the required lengths.

13
Primary forming

Primary forming involves molding the cut steel into various shapes, commonly by hot rolling,
which removes casting flaws and provides a desirable shape and surface quality. This method
may be utilized to create seamless tubing, long products, flat products, and numerous additional
specialized products.

Secondary forming

The secondary forming process, which comes last, presents the steel its final shape and features.
At this stage, various techniques are used, such as:

o Heat treatment
o Joining
o Cold rolling
o Galvanising
o Drilling and machining

CASTING

The casting process is a manufacturing method that produces desired shape metal parts by
pouring molten metal into a mold and solidifying and cooling it to the room temperature. It is
capable of producing complex and intricate parts, irrespective of their sizes.

Basic procedures in casting production; The majority of the casting methods involve essential
phases such as pattern making, mold making, metal alloy choosing and pouring, and finishing
cast segments.

Pattern making

The mold's shape needs to be defined in order to create a pattern. For this, wax, sand, plastic, or
even wood may be used as materials.

Mold making

14
Then it's vital to make different casting molds of various types. Sand, plaster, or ceramic shell
can all be acceptable components for single-use molds. Each of them uses a distinctive
manufacturing method. In addition, kiln-burned patterns produced of wax or from molds.

Melt and pour the alloy

The next step is to pour the metal into the mold after selecting the metal alloy. A solid metal is
set over a crucible and heated over an open flame or inside a furnace until it melts. Pouring the
molten metal straight from the crucible is an alternative for small casting. However, for larger
castings, the metal may need to be shifted into a larger ladle before it is poured into the mold.

Finishing

The casting product is removed after solidification and the metal surface is completed. In
addition, the finishing process may involve eliminating surplus material by scrubbing or the
milling process for higher waste material.

15
DEPARTMENTS OF THE COMPANY

Procurement Department

The procurement department, commonly referred to as the purchasing or sourcing department, is

where the purchasing process begins and ends. The department responsible for procurement
develops, creates, and purchases supplies and services. In accordance with use, purchase of raw
materials.

By locating goods and services of outstanding quality at affordable prices, the procurement
department enhances the value of the business. In addition to obtaining the best deals, an
effective procurement department develops stable connections with suppliers, maintains lines of
communication open with regard to changes in the requirements for materials, and provides for
seasonal demand.

Production Department

The functional area known as the production department is in responsibility of using different
manufacturing procedures to convert inputs into finished outputs. Making sure that raw materials
are provided and converted into the final products is the responsibility of the production
manager.

PRODUCTION

MELTING MOLDING SHAKEOUT

16
Melting

Metal melting is an essential stage in the casting process that makes solid metal flexible enough
to pour into the mold and arise from the casting in any shape. In simple terms, the metal is heated
up to a certain melting point in a metal device known as a furnace before being transferred from
a solid state into a liquid state.

Each stage in the metal melting process;

 Choosing the metal mixture ratio

 Preparing and loading the metal
 Melting the metal
 Transporting the molten metal after refinement and treatment.

Various metal melting points:

Metal Melting point C Melting point F

Aluminum 660.32 1220.58

Aluminum alloy 463 – 671 865 – 1240

Iron, wrought 1482 – 1593 2700 – 2900

Iron, grey cast 1127 – 1204 2060 – 2200

Iron ductile 1149 2900

Lead 327.5 621

Magnesium 650 1200

Nickle 1453 2647

Carbon steel 1425 – 1540 2600 – 2800

17
Molding

In the manufacturing process known as molding, a liquid or flexible raw material is molded
using a fixed frame, also referred to as a mold or matrix. The mold usually consists of a chamber
that is hollow into which liquid paste, metal, ceramic, or glass material can be poured. It is
frequently composed of metal. The main objective of the mold, which is often derived from the
initial layout or template of the completed thing, is to produce several uniform duplicates of the
final product. The final configuration takes place as the liquid cools and solidifies inside the
mold. The use of a releasing agent or ejection pins makes it easier to remove.

Blow molding

Pipeline fittings and milk bottles have been created using the process known as blow molding
technology. Until heated, plastic is heated. It is then injected into a chilled mold. The mold
includes a tube that, when inflated, takes on a particular shape.

Compression molding

The method of shaping an element into a small space using pressure as well as heat. Two steps
follow the compression molding process:

 Preheating
 Pressurizing

Shakeout

Determining a suitable shakeout time and temperature is the initial step in removing a casting
from a mold. The liquid metal needs to first freeze once it has been placed into the mold to allow
it to be removed, but there are other timing variables besides limited firmness in their mattresses.

18
The following criteria are what a shakeout operation should ideally accomplish the following:

 Sand separation
 Casting and flask
 Cleaning adhering sand from flasks
 Removing as much adhering sand from the casting surface as feasible
 Decorating the casting.
 Remove any substantial mold lumps
 When possible, take out the fins, risers, and sprue.

Given the amount of business, a sales operation that provides the sales team with superior
proposals that can be generated quickly and efficiently is essential. Contacts have been
strategically placed to achieve business and consumer goals.

21
Human Resource Department

All employee services are managed by a department within an organization called personnel, or
human resources. In order to achieve everyone's objectives, the human resource department has a
process for bringing both individuals and organizations together. By managing the company's
most precious resource, its employees, the human resource department can give the company the
structures and ability to meet its its commercial requirements.

The HR department performs the following duties:

 Personnel training
 Role appraisal

 The business has hired personnel for carrying out the duties of its many departments. For
the training and development of both skilled and unskilled labor, they have devised
adequate employment policies. Depending on how well the work is done, the employees
may receive a daily compensation of Rs. 300 to Rs. 500. Incentives are distributed
according to the employee's performance and profitability.

22
Employee work schedule and statistics department;

The time of every worker's arrival and departure from the factory is tracked by this department.
In simple terms, the department has to keep track of each employee's entry and exit from the
plant as well as the real amount of time spent on each task. The reason for recording timekeeping
and time booking.

The primary objectives of time booking are to:

 Calculate the labor costs associated with each job.

 To determine the type of work that a worker is doing.
 To have the ability able to manage the time's labor, which takes the form of idle or
unproductive time.
 To allocate order head expenses appropriately.

Work Timing:

Workdays are from Monday through Saturday, with office hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and lunch
from 1 to 2 p.m.

Welfare of the employees:

The main factor enhancing employee performance was the well-being of the staff programe and
conveniences. How ever it could increase the expenditures of the firm, offering only what is
needed is necessary.

The welfare provisions are:

Employers provide the benefits package in order to attract and maintain workers. Along with an
array of corporate benefits, a competitive wage is offered. This compensation package consists
of a constant wage with annual increases based on the cost of living, paid time off, etc.

23
Bonus plan

These strategies are used to increase performance by connecting work to financial objectives.
These are awarded for completing tasks and goals above the minimum level of performance.

Health plan

Since the organization understands that each employee has individual requirements, it offers a
variety of options for those who apply.

Accident insurance scheme

provision, drinking water supply, washing and bathing facilities, fencing provision, fire existing
flushers provision, P.F. and gratuity provision, and maternity benefits.

24
Quality Control Department

Quality control is a method or group of methods utilized to ensure that a service or product is
produced in accordance with an established set of quality criteria or that it satisfies the needs of
the client or customer. The control section may consist of two distinct sections: one for
inspecting and evaluating the product quality at various production stages as well as the final
product, and the other for analyzing the process, usually referred to as process control studies.

Quality control measures;

Die penetration test

Die penetration tests are frequently used to detect irregularities in the surface such as fractures,
fissures, porosity, grinding errors, insufficient fusion, and joint errors. Finding flaws in materials
including aluminum, cast iron, brass, steel, stainless steel, copper, magnesium, carbides, stelides,
ceramics, and even some plastics is made easier with the help of this test or inspection method.
So both ferrous and non-ferrous materials can be tested for dye penetration.

Passivation test

By eliminating ferrous impurities from their surfaces, such as free iron, the passivation process
enhances the corrosion resistance of stainless steel parts and returns them to their original
corrosion requirements. In this test, drops of a lead acetate solution are applied to the product's
surface, and after a period of five seconds, they are gently removed. There is un passivated zinc
present if this solution produces a dark stain or deposit. The existence of a chromate passivation
layer has been demonstrated by a clear result.

Heat treatment

In order to accomplish the desired result, such as the hardening or softening of a material, heat
treatment involves heating or cooling the material, typically to extreme temperatures. Annealing,
case hardening, precipitation, enhancing, tempering, carburizing, normalizing, and quenching are
some of the heat treatment processes.
25
Water quenching

The essential metalworking process known as water quenching allows for the quick cooling and
hardening of metals, providing them with increased durability and strength. Depending on the
substance being cooled, different types of water are quenched. Materials may be divided into two
categories: low carbon steels and highly alloyed materials like tool steels and stainless steels.
Plain water can be used to cool low-carbon steel, while higher alloyed steel required the use of
particular liquids.

 CHAPTER 4

CONCLUSION
 CONCLUSION

I conclude that the training undergone in CASTLEGATE INDUSTRIAL HOLDING

PRIVATE LIMITED for 20 days was a great experience for me not only in technical terms but
also in terms of interaction with workers. I have understood that the practical knowledge is more
important than learning something from the books which is nothing like having first hand
experience. I have also trained with the floe and delegation of authorities from the top level
management to middle level and lower level of management. This company gives full freedom
for the trainee to get the sufficient training. So I thank the company CASTLEGATE
INDUSTRIAL HOLDING PRIVATE LTD for allowing me to carry out my summer placement
training program for the period of 2 weeks.
