Innovation spectrum in FY 2020-21

Automotive OEMs

New products developed

  • High-strength low alloy steel
    Developed with strength level of 420MPa to 590MPa with better elongation, these grades are suitable for forming and welding used in recliner and seat frame parts
  • Ultra low carbon grades
    Developed grades which have better formability and aesthetic designs used in body side outer and fender application
  • Galvanealed ultra low carbon
    Galvannealed with unique JAZ special coating for critical parts where superior formability is required, such as body side outer, hood inner, door outer
  • Most of these grades are import substitutes and currently approved by various automotive majors such as Toyota, Isuzu, Mahindra and Nissan
  • Special alloy steel long (Bars, RCS) products forging grades
    These grades with better hardening and metallurgical properties are used in automobile parts for different applications such as gears, shafts, and front axle beam. The alloys include Cr- Mo, Cr-Ni-Mo, Cr-Mn and Mn-B
  • Fasteners grade (wire rod) development
    Used in automobile for critical safety parts
  • Advance high strength steel
    Developed with dual phase microstructure helps in crash resistant and impact bearing parts such as A Pillar Impact beams and reinforcement pillars

General engineering

New products developed

  • Electrical steel grades & insulation development
    • High permeability grade development suiting high energy efficiency demand of air conditioner and refrigerator compressors
    • High SI grade (>2.5% Si) development for large generator and transformers application for import substitution
    • Developed material with superior magnetic properties and special insulation for traction motors used in diesel locomotives
  • Bearing grade bars
    • Developed bearing grade with superior purity norms for windmill blade rotating part assembly
    • Developed import substitute bearing grades used in critical application
  • High strength alloy steel
    Forged with a strength of above 750 MPA, to deliver very high strength and toughness, achieved through fine grains and nano precipitates
    • Application such as ATM safe lockers: Developed and approved as import substitute
  • Corrosion resistant steel for boiler application:
    Corten Steel with better atmospheric corrosion index and optimal strength developed with special alloys
  • Chains and sprocket application:
    Wear resistant steel developed for automotive segment
  • Galvalume steel for pipes & tubes:
    Al-Zn coated steel developed for the first time for structural application
  • Medium carbon hot stamping grades:
    In agriculture segment implements such as ploughs, where high wear resistance is required, our newly developed 29MnB5 HR grade is being used. It helps achieve ultrahigh strength (1,500 MPa), by avoiding excess wear.

Increasing end-product service life with superior properties

We have worked closely with our customers on value add/value enhancement (VA/VE) projects to evaluate traditional steel products and explore alternatives with superior properties, resulting in enhanced longevity. For example, we developed high-strength steel for solar structures (column posts) that can also help light-weight the structures. Further, we are exploring utilities of high-strength steel in newer segments and are deepening our presence in segments such as HVAC, automobiles, doors and windows and appliances.
