Our Research and Development Infrastructure

Kalyani Centre for Technology and Innovation (KCTI)

KCTI is a DSIR-recognized and NABL-certified centre, which is central to our innovation and technology-driven strategy. It is enabling us to deepen intellectual capital by facilitating advanced technical training and academic courses to people and by undertaking extensive R&D through its network of innovation centers, research institutions and academic institutions. It is acknowledged and approved by all critical customers.

Focus areas

• Research on metallurgical properties of various metals and optimization of forging processes through advanced labs of heat treatment, metallography, fatigue, creep testing
• Improve performance of the existing products by value addition and value engineering
• Development of total systems from design to end use
• Co-assist BFL in development of new processes and products from conceptualization to end use

Kalyani Centre for Manufacturing Innovation (KCMI)

Having cutting-edge equipment, KCMI facilitates in new product development and in incubating new technologies through its rapid prototyping capabilities.

Focus areas

• Joint engineering support during product development
• Speedy development of prototypes
• Establishment design for manufacturing processes and technology

Kalyani Mobility

The new R&D center based in Michigan, North America, will primarily support product development for the light-weighting and E-mobility businesses. It will also be leveraged to incubate disruptive technologies in material alloys and manufacturing process. It is expected to act as a beachhead for the Group’s global R&D activities in the coming few years.
