Manufacturing Process
Our meticulous, research-backed manufacturing process ensures durability, safety, and precision in every transmission tower, enhancing the reliability of power and telecommunication infrastructures.
-
Raw Material Procurement
Raw materials are sourced from approved vendors according to GTP/MQP specifications. Ensuring high-quality inputs is critical for manufacturing robust transmission towers.
-
Raw Material Inspection
Raw materials undergo thorough inspection by QA/QC teams for chemical, mechanical, and dimensional accuracy before fabrication begins, ensuring compliance with stringent standards.
-
Fabrication Work
- Cutting: After QA/QC clearance, raw materials go through cutting operations using hydraulic, power press, and CNC machines.
- Punching & Drilling: Holes may be punched for materials up to 12 mm thick, while thicker materials are drilled. Burrs are removed, and bolt holes must not exceed 1.5 mm over the nominal bolt diameter. Incorrectly positioned holes, over-drilling, or ovality will lead to rejection.
- Welding: Welding is avoided unless necessary and done before galvanising. Welds comply with IS 814 or AWS A5.1 standards, and only qualified welders are permitted. All welds must be free from defects and cleaned of slag.
- Bending: High-strength structural steel is bent hot, while mild steel is bent hot for difficult bends. Hot bends are cooled naturally without quenching, and near splices, the metal is forged smooth.
- Marking/Stamping: After inspection, all members are stamped with identifying marks, matching approved detail drawings, and visible even after galvanisation.
-
Degreasing Tank
Fabricated materials are immersed in a degreasing tank to remove impurities and scale, preparing the surfaces for subsequent treatment.
-
Pickling in Acid Tank
Materials are pickled in an acid tank to clean and prepare surfaces for galvanization, ensuring optimal adhesion of the zinc coating.
-
Rinsing in Water Tank
A thorough rinse in a water tank neutralises any residual acid, preventing corrosion and ensuring a clean surface for galvanising.
-
Pre-fluxing
A flux solution is applied to aid the adhesion of zinc during galvanization, enhancing the coating’s durability.
-
Drying in Hot Chamber
Materials are dried in a hot chamber to remove moisture, crucial for achieving a uniform and effective galvanisation process.
-
Hot Dip Galvanization in Zinc Bath
Materials are immersed in a high-temperature zinc bath, creating a protective zinc coating that enhances corrosion resistance and longevity.
-
Dipping in Quenching Tank
Post-galvanization, materials are cooled in a quenching tank with water, solidifying the zinc coating and ensuring a durable finish.
-
Quenching Tank of Dichromate Water
Materials undergo passivation in dichromate water for enhanced corrosion resistance and improved finish.
-
Finishing
Final inspection ensures quality standards are met. Materials are trimmed to required dimensions and prepared for bundling and dispatch, ready for deployment in power and telecommunication projects.
