Gears
having Standard and Modified Profiles with both plus and minus profile correction
factors, Straight Splines and Shafts Gun Drilled thru' with dia 5 ~ 8 mm (at present)
and a possibility of dia 25 mm x 200 long. All
Gears and Shafts are produced to a class of accuracy JIS 5 as per Japanese Industrial
Standards equivalent to Class of accuracy 9 as per DIN 3967. Alloy
Steels SAE 8620 , En 8D and SCM 415 H / SCM 420 H necessarily of
Mukund Steel Ltd. / Vardhaman Special Steels to ensure proper chemical composition
both for Hot and Cold forging practices. Proper records are kept for easy traceability
should the need for some investigation arise. | 6.
HEAT TREATMENT IMPARTED: |
Very
special care taken in Heat Treating the components in Sealed Quench Furnaces (SQF)
with computerized controls to ensure strict control on the Effective Case Depths
and Microstructure. The SQF does not allow any De-carb which might result in soft
spots on the treated surfaces. We
have a TIE - UP with M/s METALS INDIA - Faridabad for heat treatment on
our components and have got their plants duly approved from a senior technical
Japanese team from Yamaha Motor India (P) Ltd. The source has the following equipment
to ensure the desired treatment; 6.1
Sealed Quench Furnaces , Wesman Ipsen make - 2 Nos. In straight through
design with Super Carb ( Air + LPG ) process and gas Nitriding process with oil
quench and forced gas quench facility. The furnaces are electrically heated fitted
with thyristor control unit for supplying power to furnaces and fitted with Allen
Bradley PLC model SLC - 5/30 for furnace logic controls, complete with Loader
/ Un-loader , electrically heated pre-heating furnace , Tempering furnace and
Washing Machine. 6.2 Nitrogen Generator 6.3 CO Analyzer
6.4 Table type double door Shot Blasting machine. 6.5 Ultrasonic
cleaning machine 6.6 Back up power thru' Gen Set 6.7 Micro Hardness
Tester with Image analyzer 6.8 Induction Annealing machine 6.9
Brinnel , Rockwell & Superficial Hardness testing machines The
plant is completely computerized. Metals
India is presently catering to the following main customers:
Hero Honda group Honda Ciel Honda Scooters
Yamaha Baker Oil Tools
Processes being regularly undertaken at Metals India:
Carburizing Nitriding Carbonitriding Nitrocarburizing
Neutral Hardening Annealing, Normalizing, Isothermal Annealing
& Stress Relieving.
The
effective case depths are maintained between 0.40~0.60 mm at heat treatment
stage achieving a surface hardness of 78 ~ 82 HRA values. The threaded
portions wherever applicable are kept "Soft" by preventing them from
getting carburized by application of ' Anti-carb Paste' which prevents carbon
penetration on threads during carburizing process on rest of the part. Never the
less the threads are Induction Softened" after heat treatment to ensure soft
threads having a hardness level of less than 70 HRA as per Yamaha specifications.

CHOICE OF GEAR CUTTING TOOLS: |
To
manufacture any Gear or Shaft to the required perfection level it is very important
that the selection of the special tooling gets an utmost and careful consideration
failing which the desired accuracies can never be achieved despite best expertise
and efforts. At Kalson such care is always taken and the RISK factor is zero.
We buy only CMH ( formerly Chogule Matrix Hobs Ltd - Hyderabad ) Gear Cutting
Tools manufactured out of ASP 30 Material and the Spline Broaches are procured
from the ever dependent Dagger Forst Tools . By doing this we, at Kalson,
ensure that the components coming out shall conform to the desired accuracy levels.

FINAL CARE BEFORE DESPATCH TO CUSTOMER : |
The
components after all operations are subjected to Quality Audits at the hands of
experienced Quality Assurance Engineers to ensure that the customer gets a
PRODUCT ENGINEERED TO PERFECTION. At Kalson we assume that our final QA Engineer
is a representative of our customer, even though the systems set do not have chances
of any quality deviations. |
