BDS/QC — Quality
Quality ismeasured, not assumed
Every BDS component is verified against its drawing before it leaves Kalanaur — geometry on the CMM, material on the test bench, and the paperwork your quality team needs to sign it off.

BDS/QC — Inspection & testing
How a part gets signed off
Quality at BDS is measured, not assumed. CMM and profile-projector inspection verify geometry; metallurgical, hardness, tensile and impact testing verify material integrity; and PPAP / APQP documentation gives your quality team full traceability.

BDS/QC — Metrology lab
The lab, instrument by instrument
What a part is measured and tested on before it is signed off, and what each instrument is used for.
01
CMM — Mitutoyo CRYSTA-Apex V
3D geometry, datums and GD&T against the CAD model
02
CNC vision measuring system
Profiles, small features and non-contact measurement
03
Profile projector
Contours, radii, threads and chamfers
04
Surface roughness tester
Ra / Rz on sealing and bearing faces
05
Hardness testing
After forging, heat treatment and finishing
06
Metallurgical testing
Microstructure and grain flow of forgings
07
Tensile & impact testing
Mechanical properties against the material specification
08
In-line gauging
Go / no-go and bore gauges at the machine, every batch
BDS/EN — Engineering
Problems solved before metal moves
Value analysis, forging simulation, finite-element validation, weight and process optimisation, tooling and fixture design — all handled digitally before production begins, so the first part off the die is already right.

BDS/FY — Roadmap 2026–2028
Where the works is headed
A three-year programme that takes BDS from smart manufacturing to an autonomous facility — capacity and process control advancing together.
FY 2026
AchievedCapacity and clean power
- Machine park expanded to close to 60 machining centres
- 500 kW rooftop solar power generation commissioned
FY 2027
In progressSmart manufacturing at scale
- Industry 4.0 implementation for data-driven efficiency
- Robotic automation integration
- 1500-tonne forging press installation
- 150 machines total — VMC, CNC & CLG
- Additional CMM for inspection
FY 2028
PlannedAutonomous facility
- Progression toward the Dark Factory model
- 250 machines total
- 750 kW solar power generation
