INTRODUCTION
This group today, stands among the leading manufacturers in the Indian Steel Market and is primarily known for providing supreme quality TMT STEEL BARS and allied products. The Group consists of three core companies: Shree Sidhbali Industries Limited, Kotdwar Shree Sidhbali Ispat Limited, chandrapura Shree Sidhbali steels, Muzaffarnagar Product range by the group: TMT bars from 8 mm to 32 mm Angles and channels Mild Steel billets and ingots High quality, environment-friendly fine textured papers from Sugarcane Pulp Power generation
Among all other, SIDHBALI SARIA is one of the most popular brand in TMT Steel, which is presently manufactured by Sidhbali Group.
SIDHBALI GROUP has been consisting presently three core companies as:
Shree Sidhbali Industries Shree Sidhbali Industries Limited at Kotdwar Unit in Uttrakhand State having installed capacity of 75000 MT P.A. and the input raw material i.e. M.S. Ingot is also produced by the Melting Division of this Unit having installed capacity of 30000 MT P.A. This Unit is situated in Kotdwar. Shree Sidhbali Ispat Limited:-After marking an inerasable imprint of its trust and quality in the Northern India, Sidhbali has eventually moved towards the Western and Southern parts also. Rolling Mill having production capacity of 100000 MT P.A., which cater to the construction requirements of South and West of India. The raw materials used in the manufacture of Sidhbali TMT Steel are not imported, instead are made in Sidhbalis own Melting Division having production capacity of 36000 MT P.A. Its this inspiring growth that motivated the company to set up a Sponge Iron Unit having production capacity of 105000 MT P.A. in this Plant. Yet again in Chandrapur, Sidhbali has set up the Captive Power Generation Unit having capacity of 20 MW, which generates energy through high grade technologies. Today, this is the biggest and most hi-tech unit of entire Maharashtra.
Shree Sidhbali Steels Limited:-The quality of Sidhbali Steel has over the time fetched incredibly high demands in the Northern India. To fulfill the same, just recently, the Group started their third steel manufacturing plant in Muzaffarnagar of Uttar Pradesh State, having production capacity of 60000 MT P.A. TMT Bars with Melting Division having capacity of 15000 MT P.A.
Group Profile
Sidhbali Group Accreditations is standard certified ISI : 1786-2008, ISO 2001 & ISO 14001
Capacity:
30,000 MT P.A
75,000 MT P.A
Shree Sidhbali Industries Limited is the first manufacturing unit of Sidhbali Group There are two divisions in Shree Sidhbali industries Kotdwar Rolling division Melting division Rolling division consists of a reheating furnace. Melting division consists of a induction furnace
Induction furnace
Capacity can vary in a big range from less than one kilogram to one hundred tones Highest chemical durability Lowest alloy losses. Leading to highest metal quality with respect to impurities. High refractoriness. Available in various sizes. Comes in different capabilities Induction furnace is a clean, energy-efficient and well-controllable melting process compared to most other means of metal melting.

What
Where When Who Why How
Reasons Wet or damp charge material Sealed containers in scrap Centrifugally-cast scrap rolls Dropping heavy charge into molten bath Wet or damp tool or additives
Recommended solutions
To use compressed air to remove dampness and dust or other impurities from the charge
Sealed containers should be first drilled and cleaned and then should be used as charge in the furnace
Remote charging system should be used i.e. all workers are kept away from furnace so they are safe from splash To save people from injury the workers should be provided with primary protective equipment There should be proper barriers to keep workers and visitors at a proper distance from the furnace thus keeping them safe
Benefits
Most common reason for molten metal splash eliminated
By air cleaning even dust or impurities being added to furnace were reduced thus better quality and less wastage
Scrap not wasted even if it consists of sealed containers Money saved as scrap and labours are saved No separate investment as both the solution has everything from within the division
Observations
Steel sheets covering the industry should be replaced by transparent sheet in order to insure better light in the industry The furnace should have an opening at the top so that the slag can come out automatically and no worker is required for the same purpose. The furnace wall presently made up of refractory material can be used 10 to 15 times should be replaced by an alloy comprising of niobium, hafnium and titanium. Proper neatness should be maintained in the industry The furnace should be equipped with ground and leak detection system Should be upgraded in technology because that upgrade can reduce the specific power consumption per unit tonne by around 25% Electromagnet on crane should be used to collect iron and steel particles from the floor to get most and save money out of scrap
Conclusion
The project holds a brief description about the working of the Induction Furnace and how the problems arising in the plant are tackled. In melting division safety and maintenance has an active work to do and has to maintain healthy relation with the employees. Accidents are part of the melting shop and they cannot be completely removed but safety people try to minimize the accidents and thus save industry from damage and injury to workers. First the cause is detected and then by data collection and idea implementation the problem is tried to be removed. If all the causes are removed one by one and like this causes of accidents are reduced. Breakdowns are also very damaging for industry as the production stops there is a complete stop over income. First analysis is done to understand the problem and causes. Then all possible prevention measures are taken so that there are no further breakdowns in industry. It was a nice experience being a part of the SIDHBALI INDUSTRIES for six weeks. This training has enhanced my knowledge and provided me an experience of working in an industry. It also helped to understand how an industry runs and even what all barriers one face in its growth, I also learned a systematic and refined way of tackling problems and understood that one has to think out of the box for once growth and growth of industry as a whole.
