Central India Forging Supply — From Rajkot to Nagpur
Nagpur occupies a unique position in India's industrial geography — it is the literal geographical centre of the subcontinent, at the intersection of north–south and east–west rail and road corridors. This centrality has made Nagpur a strategic location for Tata Motors' manufacturing facility at Butibori, the MIHAN SEZ's aerospace and MRO hub, and Western Coalfields Limited's regional headquarters. Vidarbha's industrial belt stretching from Nagpur through Wardha to Chandrapur is a significant consumer of forged components — automotive parts, mining wear parts, power plant alloys, and food machinery stainless — yet the region has limited local forging capacity.
Shivam Forge at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot supplies forgings to Nagpur via road freight (16–18 hours) and rail freight for bulk orders. We have established this corridor over several years of supply to Nagpur-based automotive tier suppliers, mining equipment manufacturers, and power sector contractors. The freight cost from Rajkot to Nagpur is manageable — comparable to what a Pune or Aurangabad vendor charges, often cheaper on per-kg basis because return loads from Vidarbha are readily available — and our manufacturing cost base in Shapar GIDC is genuinely lower than Maharashtra's industrial estates.
MIHAN SEZ represents Nagpur's most technically demanding forging requirement. Aerospace and defence components manufactured here — structural brackets, actuation fittings, engine components — require material disciplines that most general forging vendors cannot meet. Shivam Forge has invested in the documentation infrastructure: AS9102-format First Article Inspection Reports, AMS 2350 material certification, spectrometric analysis from NABL-accredited laboratories, and non-destructive testing (magnetic particle and ultrasonic) with records. We produce 4340 (AMS 6414) vacuum-treated grade, 15CDV6 per ISRO specifications, and can source Ti-6Al-4V billet from qualified suppliers for MIHAN customers.
WCL and SECL's coal mining operations in the Vidarbha and Chhattisgarh coalfields are another consistent forging market around Nagpur. Crushing and conveying equipment sees brutal wear in abrasive coal and overburden environments — Hadfield Mn13 austenitic manganese steel is the classic wear material for crusher jaws and impact liners, and alloy steel above 350 HB handles conveyor sprockets and dragline components. We produce these grades in our Rajkot hammer shop and have supplied mining maintenance requirements to Nagpur-based equipment rebuilders. MAHAGENCO's thermal power stations at Koradi, Khaparkheda, and Chandrapur require F22 and P91 alloy forgings for boiler and turbine maintenance — again, grades within our regular production.
