Goetze (India) Limited (Sintered Product Division) |
|
The Bhiwadi plant manufactures precision powder
metal (sintered) components for engines, transmissions
and lubricating pumps, including valve seat inserts, valve
guides, synchronizer hub, timing pulleys, ge-rotors,
lubrication pumps, gears and many other structural
components.
The Bhiwadi plant was one of the
first three in India, and one of the first 15
in the world, to become certified in ISO/TS 16949/OHSAS 18001. The production facility was planned for specific
product ranges, allowing for greater control of processes and final product
quality.

| Blending
|
| Y-cone blending
with in-built separators allows uniform mixing of blend and almost no globule
formation, even for high graphite containing materials. The blending room is
fitted with a de-humidifier to keep moisture under control, while operations
are being performed.

|
| Compaction
|
|
Valve seat inserts -
Specially designed presses provide consistency in density, which is
essential for the production of quality parts.
These presses have special feature to form outer chamfer, which avoids subsequent machining operation.
Valve guide - Tailor-made
feeding systems allow uniform density distribution along the length of guides,
giving maximum variation within 02.gm/cc even for a 60mm long valve guide.
The
use
of sintered tool steel allows greater compaction pressure giving higher
densities, which helps in improving machinability of parts.
Structural
parts - Mechanical and hydraulic presses with two
upper level and two lower levels are used for pressing parts
such as synchronizer hubs and oil pump rotors.
Multi-level presses (>
3 levels) are used when required.

|
| Sintering and heat
treatment
|
| Furnaces used
for sintering are specially designed for parts where, apart from accurate
temperature profile, purity of atmosphere is ensured to 3~4 PPM.
Furnaces are calibrated monthly to ensure accurate results.
Heat treatments are carried out in-house to ensure better process control.
|
|
|
| Grinding &
machining
|
| Most of the
grinding and machining operations are performed out in-house, which allow
greater process control.
|
|
|
| Inspection &
Testing
|
| Federal-Mogul is a world leader in
sintered technology. Using state-of-the-art equipment,
specifically designed for sintered parts, products
are inspected and tested to meet high quality
standards.
