Forging Company for Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad is Gujarat's largest city and one of India's major industrial centres. Its manufacturing grew from textiles into a broad base that now includes engineering and machinery, chemicals and dyes, pharmaceuticals, plastics, pumps and valves, electrical equipment and automotive supply. Almost every one of those industries uses forged components somewhere in its machinery or products.

Ahmedabad has strong machining, fabrication and process equipment capability, but comparatively less forging capacity than the dedicated forging clusters. Many Ahmedabad manufacturers therefore source forgings from Saurashtra — close enough for easy visits and overnight delivery, and within the same state.

Industrial areas in and around Ahmedabad

Manufacturing is spread across a number of industrial estates and belts, including Naroda, Vatva, Odhav and Kathwada on the eastern side of the city, Changodar, Bavla and Sanand to the south-west, Santej, Rakanpur and Chhatral towards Kalol to the north, and the Mandal–Becharaji automotive region further to the north-west. We deliver across all of these.

Most of this work is made to customer drawings or samples. If your part is not listed, see custom forging job work.

Ahmedabad's chemical and pharmaceutical industries are among its most distinctive, and they need forged stainless components with particular attention to grade selection, surface condition and contamination control.

Choosing the grade for the process

• SS 304 for general process service without chlorides.
• SS 316 or 316L where chlorides are present in the process or in cleaning chemicals; 316L wherever the part will be welded. See 304 versus 316.
• Duplex stainless where chloride stress corrosion cracking is a risk. See 316 versus duplex.
• SS 410 for shafts and stems that need hardness as well as corrosion resistance.

Avoiding contamination

Stainless steel handled with tooling shared with carbon steel picks up embedded iron particles that rust on the surface — a defect that looks like a material failure and is unacceptable in pharmaceutical and food-adjacent equipment. Stainless work is handled separately from carbon steel, and parts can be pickled and passivated where the application requires it. See chemical industry forging.

The Sanand and Mandal–Becharaji areas have developed into a significant automotive manufacturing region, with vehicle plants and a growing supplier base around them. Automotive supply brings its own requirements beyond the part itself.

• PPAP submissions including control plan, PFMEA, dimensional results and capability studies — see what is PPAP
• Capability of Cpk 1.33 or better on special characteristics
• 100% magnetic particle inspection on safety-critical parts such as steering and suspension forgings
• Heat number traceability from steel mill to finished part
• Scheduled releases against an annual quantity

Our processes are aligned with IATF 16949 requirements. See automotive forging.

Our works is at Plot No 19, Ekta Industrial Estate, Near Ribda Railway Station, B/h Ekta Way Bridge, N/H 8B, Gundasara, Gondal, Rajkot, Gujarat 360311. Every stage of manufacture happens there, so a buyer in Ahmedabad deals with one supplier accountable for the finished part.

Consignments travel by road from our Gondal plant along the Rajkot–Ahmedabad highway, roughly 240 km, arriving overnight. Because the supply is within Gujarat, it is an intra-state transaction for GST purposes, and there are no interstate transit formalities to plan around.

Urgent parts can be dispatched as soon as they are finished, and visits to the plant are a comfortable day trip from Ahmedabad.

Dedicated forging capability

Saurashtra has a long-established forging and engineering base, with the skills, steel supply and tooling support that come with it. Buying from a dedicated forge gives access to that depth while staying close to home.

In-house tooling

Because our die design and die sinking are in-house, first article samples take three to five weeks and corrections take days rather than weeks. That matters when an Ahmedabad machine builder is developing a new model on a deadline.

One accountable supplier

Forging, heat treatment, machining and testing under one roof means a dimensional or hardness problem is traced through one set of records, not argued between vendors.

Direct access to decision makers

You speak directly with the partners who run the business: Jatin Ramoliya (+91 94274 40621) and Sanjay Lakkad (+91 99136 01800).

Ahmedabad's industries put forgings into very different environments — chemical vessels, textile machines, pumps, vehicles. The right grade depends on what will make the part fail. The table is a starting point; final selection should consider section size, load and environment together.

See what steel is used for forging and EN8 versus EN19 for the reasoning behind these choices.

Being a few hours away changes how a development project runs compared with a supplier across the road — but not by much, if the project is planned well. Most Ahmedabad customers handle early stages remotely and visit at the point where seeing the part matters most.

Process industry buyers in Ahmedabad frequently need documentation that goes beyond a standard material certificate, often because their own customers or regulators ask for it. It is far easier to agree these requirements at enquiry than to reconstruct records afterwards.

• Material test certificates to EN 10204 3.1, with the heat number marked on the part
• Heat treatment records for each charge
• Dimensional inspection reports against the drawing
• Surface finish records on product-contact surfaces, where specified
• Pickling and passivation records for stainless parts, where specified
• Non-destructive testing reports for pressure-retaining components
• Third-party inspection arrangements, where an end client requires witnessing

Stainless components for these industries are handled separately from carbon steel throughout, to prevent the embedded iron contamination that causes surface rust. See corrosion problems in forged parts.

Ahmedabad has a large base of machine builders designing special-purpose and process machinery, often in small batches with frequent revisions. For them, the most useful thing a forge can provide is engineering input before tooling is committed.

• Forgeability review — draft, radii, parting line and ribs checked before the design is frozen. See forging design guidelines.
• Tolerance review — as-forged surfaces moved to commercial tolerance class where function allows.
• Route advice — whether a part suits closed die, open die or machining from a forged blank at the quantities involved.
• Grade and heat treatment advice — matched to section size and failure mode rather than to habit.
• Prototype routes — forged samples in production grade without full production tooling. See prototype forging.
• Cost reduction ideas — near-net features that remove machining operations.
