Skill up today for a better tomorrow
Without sharpening your weapon; standing on the battlefield would not increase your chance of winning, says Ankit Sahay, an author. And, rightly so! Even though the Indian tooling industry
has the determination to compete with its global counterparts, it currently lacks the required trained manpower to help it achieve its goals. Various initiatives and some digital strategies
could come to the rescue and help bridge the skill development gap.

 The ability to respond flexibly
to the rapidly changing demand
provides an opportunity for
Indian manufacturers
By integrating digitalization and automation, manufacturers
can now quickly turn around ideas and insights into reality,
simulate and validate product performance, define and refine
processes to produce goods within their predefined budgets,
on time and as per the customer’s requirements. This is key to
competitiveness and Siemens Xcelerator portfolio is helping
manufacturers in India achieve it, says - Tony Hemmelgarn,
President and Chief Executive Officer, Siemens Digital

Steel Development for
High-Pressure Die Casting Dies
with Highest Surface Requirements
Due to technical but also aesthetic reasons
the surface quality of cast products, and of
the die casting dies accordingly, gains more
and more importance. Surface quality is
directly related to the appearance of thermal shock
cracks which are transferred onto the castings during
the casting process. This report describes the new
premium hot-work tool steel CS1 which, due to its
particular combination of properties like unusually
high working hardness, tempering resistance, and
simultaneously high toughness offers an exceptional
resistance against formation and growth of thermal
shock cracks.
