Production Facilities



Methoding/ Drawing Preparation

All drawings are prepared/ validated using advanced design software. While the experience foundry engineers provide critical input for the design of methods, however latest simulation software provide additions validation support to create defect free casting design.

Pattern/Core Box

While all the major patterns/core boxes are out sourced to the professional makers, however, all simple patterns, as well as rectification work on all patterns/core boxes, are done in-house.

Melting Facilities

The melting capacity of the company is varied in nature as well as capacity. Following are the details of melting capacity in brief:

Electrical Arc Furnace: 5000 Kg

Electrical Induction Furnace: 3000 Kg/ 2000 Kg

Mechanized Moulding system consisting of

  • Articulated Mixer Plant for No-Bake Moulding ( 20t capacity).
  • High-Pressure Moulding Machine for castings up to weight range of 3000kg.
  • Jolt Squeeze Pin Lift Moulding Machines, Intensive Sand Mixtures, Sand Mullers etc.

Core Making Facilities

  • Articulated Mixer Plant for No-Bake Cores.
  • Co2 based core making system.
  • Shell core manufacturing system. Self-setting core making facilities.

Heat—Treatment Facilities

Heat treatment is one of the most critical aspects of the casting process. Quality of heat treatment determines the performance of casting. We,at Raneka Industries Ltd.,have abattery of heat treatment facilities. 3 bogie hearth furnaces with atotal capacity of 35MT of steel casting and equipped with water quenching facility, provide sufficient capacity for heat treatment jobs. We have recently added 1.5 MT capacity electric heat treatment facility for manufacturing of ADI grade of castings.
