At CEL, ‘quality' is assured, not controlled.
All heats are checked for chemical composition using fully computerized ‘ARL Make' Direct Reading Vacuum Emission Spectrometer before casting the billets. The Billets in Medium and High Strength Alloys required to be extruded for Engineering, Auto Sector, Defence and for other stringent applications are checked with Ultrasonic Flaw Detector to ensure that there are no internal flaws. The Billets in Medium and High Strength Alloys are turned to minimize surface defects in the extrusions.
Our testing facility is equipped with Electrical Conductivity measuring equipment for Bus Bars – both flat & tubular.
The leakage and pressure testing facility for Irrigation Tubes enables us to supply these tubes as per BIS:7092 Part-II.
Our testing facilities have also been approved by CQA (Metals) vide their letter No. CDN-747/TC dated 27.11.01 for supply of Defence Stores.
We also have the facility to carry out ‘product-specific tests' such as flattening tests for the ferrule sections, dumbbell test for the Detonator Shell stock, machinability tests for the supplies to the engineering industry, examination of macro-structure in case of supplies to Defence, detection of internal flaws in case of profiles subjected to high pressure applications (e.g. Gear Pump Casings) etc. besides the conventional tests like determining the U.T.S., percentage Elongation, Yield Strength and Hardness.
“QUALITY” – Our customers come back and not the products”.
