Kalyani Group: Taking India Towards Self-reliance And Self-sufficiency In Artillery

Sep-2018

Manufacturing of artillery guns is a highly complex science which involves cross-disciplinary architecture, robust design and engineering capability, and intensive knowledge of complex materials, with a solid foundation in metallurgy that forms the backbone of this capability.

Kalyani Group: Taking India Towards Self-reliance And Self-sufficiency In Artillery

The core of any artillery gun system comprises the Ordnance (i.e. Barrel, the Breech Assembly and Muzzle Brake) that requires high-quality steel as a raw material combined with sophisticated manufacturing processes to attain desired attributes of highest levels of strength and durability. The world over, there are a few countries, mostly European with a strong background in metals and metal forming, that possess the capability of artillery systems manufacturing.

In recent times, one name which has made a mark for itself in this complex segment is Pune-based Kalyani Group. Using its strong platform of metallurgical Kalyani Group: Taking India towards Self-reliance and Self-sufficiency in Artillery ATAGS knowledge, design and engineering capability and manufacturing prowess, the group has, over the last few years, invested heavily to create a world-class manufacturing eco-system for artillery guns. Backed by several decades of experience in component manufacturing and metallurgy, the group has realised a major breakthrough in the artillery segment within a short frame of time. An end-to-end solution provider, its indigenously designed, developed and manufactured product profile includes a series of 155/52/45/39 and 105/37 guns.
