aluminium show |Taural and Indian Railways Forge a Path of Excellence Utilizing Advanced Aluminum Casting Solutions

Taural India, a globally renowned integrated aluminum casting foundry, is excited to announce its partnership with the Indian Railways, marking a significant milestone in India's journey towards self-sufficiency and technological advancement. The company provided cutting-edge aluminum casting solutions for the recently launched Amrit Bharat Express train in Ayodhya. As part of Taural India's commitment to localization efforts, the production of aluminum gearboxes custom-made for the WAP5 type electric locomotives has reached new heights. These locomotives, produced by the Indian Railways' flagship manufacturing unit Chittaranjan Locomotive Works (CLW), have undergone a revolutionary transformation by adopting locally produced aluminum casting components.

According to the aluminium show, this initiative has not only successfully replaced aluminum castings previously imported from Germany, but it has also ushered in a new era of efficiency, with a 50% increase in the speed of part delivery. Taural India's commitment to excellence and sustainable development has resonated across its wide customer base and industry, making it a trusted and innovative partner in the field of aluminum casting solutions.

Bharat Gite, Managing Director and CEO of Taural India, stated, "Our collaboration with the Indian Railways is a testament to Taural India's commitment to innovation, localization, and the 'Make in India' initiative. We are proud to provide cutting-edge aluminum casting solutions that meet global quality standards without compromising on efficiency or production speed."

Taural India has strategically developed a strong technological infrastructure and expertise domestically, positioning itself as a key contributor to meeting the specialized needs of the railway sector. The company operates in its 300,000-square-foot campus in Pune, India, offering comprehensive aluminum sand casting solutions covering the entire range from product design to quality testing, painting, product construction, assembly, and timely delivery.

Recognizing the environmental benefits of green metals like aluminum, Taural India actively incorporates these materials, reducing emissions and improving energy efficiency throughout the production and application process. The intrinsic qualities of aluminum, including its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, design flexibility, recyclability, and energy efficiency, make it an ideal choice for the Indian Railways sector.
