Quality Control

First time right and always right is our promise

At PPEL, our unwavering commitment to quality is at the core of every product development process. Our focus on delivering top-notch quality, stemming from the Feasibility study, has become a guiding principle for our operations. As a result, we have streamlined the product development process into three distinct stages – Methoding, Manufacturing, and Supplies.

To guarantee maximum production efficiency, we prioritise hiring experienced and knowledgeable individuals possessing the proper skill set. Once onboard, they are assigned suitable roles and provided with state-of-the-art equipment to facilitate an impeccable manufacturing cycle. Furthermore, should any skill gaps arise, we address them through targeted training and development programs.

Moreover, our commitment to excellence is further reinforced by integrating industry-leading quality management practices and methodologies, such as SPC (Statistical Process Control), PPAP (Production Part Approval Process), APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning), Quality Circles, Control Plans, and Poka-Yoke (Japanese concept of mistake-proofing).

By incorporating these proven systems and tools into our Quality Assurance processes, we ensure that our dedication to quality remains at the forefront of our product development endeavours.

Deepak Survase

Plant Head - Pooja Castings Pvt Ltd – (Foundry Division)

My journey at Pooja Castings began in 2005 as a Trainee Junior Engineer. Now, I have the honour of serving as the Plant Head.

In 2007, I was promoted to Senior Engineer, and by 2010, I stepped up to the position of Assistant Manager. In 2014, I advanced to the role of Manager – Production. By 2016, I was tasked with the responsibility of Foundry Incharge.

In 2018, my role expanded, giving me additional responsibility for Supply Chain Management while also overseeing Foundry Manufacturing. In 2020, I was promoted to Supply Chain Management Head.

Fast forward to 2022, and I was given another great opportunity as the Plant Head. This marks my 18th year with the company, a journey that has been deeply satisfying on a professional, personal, and family level. The company has given me an incredible platform for growth, pushing me to improve consistently.

Living a happy and healthy life with the PCPL family, I plan on continuing this journey for as long as I can work and contribute.

Mr. D D Kumbhar

I joined Pooja Castings Pvt Ltd in 2000 as a Foundry Manager, bringing my experience from Piston Industries. Under the guidance of Chairman Mr Anil S Kulkarni, I started my career with hand-operated dies at the company. As we transitioned to machine-operated dies, the company began to experience growth. In 2008, I was promoted from Manager to Plant Head to Technical Director (Foundry).

From 2010 onwards, we embarked on a journey of innovation. We designed the GDC Tilt Gravity Versatile machine, developed multi-cavity dies, introduced heat treatment processes, and implemented a drop bottom furnace. We also established India’s largest Centrifugal Impregnation plant, contributing to our substantial growth. During this time, I pursued my PhD in “Effective Practices and Metallurgy in Production of Aluminum Alloys and Critical Die Castings,” combining theoretical and practical studies.

I received immense support from our dynamic Managing Director, Mr Sanket Kulkarni, in overcoming the challenges faced in GDC and achieving exceptional casting quality. Alongside the company’s growth, I experienced personal development in terms of technical knowledge, technical capabilities, and financial advancements.

The company has also allowed me to share my expertise as a faculty member in technical forums such as GDC Tech, Alucast, IIF, ARAI, and engineering colleges. Over time, my relationship with the company has evolved into that of a family member. Both our Chairman and Managing Director are committed to retaining talented employees and continuously supporting their professional development.
