Ritam steels produces a wide range of alloy steels for castings. Our expertise lies in producing castings with the following specifications:
- Manganese-steel according to IS: 276 specifications (grades1-7) up to 2500kg per piece, Manganese -alloy steels with 12-22% manganese
- LLow allow and high alloy steels grades with manganese, chromium, molybdenum and other alloys.
- Casted and machined parts for mineral processing and material handling equipment for mining industry
- Hi Chrome white iron castings for Hammer mills and Impactors
- MS castings for machine tools and mother machines
- Ni hard/HRCS castings for mining cement and power plants.
We are manufacturing Jaw and Cone crusher liners in various grades of Manganese with or without chromium

Testing/ quality assurance
Quality improvement is one the core strategy for our
business that in ingrained at every step in the organizational process so as it all comes
together and produces a quality culture that in turn reflects in our products.
At production, level the quality planning of castings is set right during pattern
development and production planning. The technical tem evaluates the design and makes a
product quality plan for the product. Modeling and simulation software are used in
engineering and design of new castings/products.
The foundry is equipped with metallurgical and physical laboratory to carry out all the
required testing in-house. We also verify our testing facilities with a NABL (national
accreditation board for testing and calibration laboratories) accredited lab.
Every piece is tested for dimensional accuracy and surface defects using MPI or DP test, so
no defective pieces leave the factory negligently. The castings also undergo vigorous
pre-dispatch inspections if so according to customer specifications.
In critical or highly engineered castings, UT testing is also done to satisfy the customer’s
quality directives.
The company has achieved ISO-9001:2015 certification to prove its commitment towards
achieving integration of quality procedures at every level throughout the organization. ISO
certification and guidelines will help us keep a control and production and design
processes. Continuous work is being undertaken to adopt total quality procedures in business
and production processes.
Our long experience and exposure to this sector has enabled us to customize and engineer our
casted components to different crushing needs and environments
The foundry is equipped with a metallurgical and mechanical testing laboratory to perform
all of the metallographic, chemical and mechanical testing in-house. It is an integral part
of our quality control program that helps us address any issue and resolve it swiftly.
ALL OF OUR TESTS CONFORM TO ASTM OR IS STANDARDS
Metallographic
- Sample preparation for Micro Structure analysis and Grain size determination
- Ultrasonic testing
- MPI(magnetic particle inspection)
- Radiography
Mechanical
- Tensile
- Bend test
- Brinell Hardness

Design capabilities
At Ritam Steels we believe in investing on research and development for sustaining growth and bringing out the product differentiation through the same. Design and production teams for a quality circle and work in tandem to improve of cost efficiency of production and improve on design for liners. Design are developed in CAD platform and further studying the 3D models before putting it into production. We undertake casting simulations for product methoding to ensure cost effective casting free of holes and defects.
