Umesh Sakhavalkar (Metallurgist and Technical Consultant)

An experienced metallurgist with more than thirty-five years of industrial experience. I am an expert in developing alloys and processes with superior wear properties. I am dedicated, hardworking, through and possess in depth knowledge of different cast metals, their structural analysis and treatment. I provide most efficient and cost-effective solutions to the metal manufacturing foundries resulting in increased profits and reduced errors.

Expertise:
o Estimation of weights, yield, rejection for new enquiries
o Development of
o Alloys and processes for superior wear properties and cost-
effectiveness.
o Complete alloying, melting, manufacturing procedures, and
techniques for high chrome iron, Hadfield steel, i.e. Manganese steel.
o Heat treatment cycles for high chrome iron and manganese steel.
o Spectrochemical and microstructure analysis of all wear-resistant grades.
o Ductile iron manufacturing processes, treatment alloys and alloys for as cast grades of ductile iron.
o Introduced and developed testing methods in spectrometry, mechanical, ultrasonic, etc.
