About RAFTEC

A new forge for India's aerospace decade.

RAFTEC Industries was founded in 2025 in Hyderabad — on the conviction that India's aerospace, defence, and heavy engineering sectors need a domestic forge that competes on the metallurgy, not just the price.

We are building a vertically integrated works — billet receipt, forge press, heat treatment, and non-destructive inspection — all under one roof, all under one quality management system.

We are not a contract shop. We are a metallurgy team that has chosen the harder problem on purpose: certified aerospace forging, done in India, to global specification.

Capabilities

A full forging cycle, under one roof.

Every RAFTEC component passes through the same four stages — forging, heat treatment, machining, inspection — without leaving the works. The result is repeatability, traceability, and a single accountable chain from billet to final delivery.

01 Forging
STAGE 01

Open-die & closed-die forging

Hydraulic press operations from billet to near-net shape. Aluminium and titanium alloys up to 30 MT. In-house die design and pre-heat scheduling for grain-flow optimisation.

Facility & machinery

Top equipment.

The plant behind every RAFTEC forging — see the full list on the Capacity page.

Metallurgy

Material grades & alloy range

We forge a comprehensive range of aluminium alloys selected for aerospace, defence, and structural service. Every heat is documented and every part carries its alloy genealogy from billet to ship release.

Quality

No part ships unproven.

Aerospace structural forgings live or die on what you cannot see inside the metal. Our inspection regime is built around the assumption that every billet has a flaw until proven otherwise.

01

Inspection & NDT

Every part inspected ultrasonically to AMS 2154 Class A. Hardness, conductivity, and dye-penetrant performed on every batch.

02

Material traceability

Each forging carries an unbroken digital trace from billet heat number through every thermal and machining step to ship release.

03

Calibration

Furnaces, presses, and CMM equipment calibrated to NABL-traceable standards. Per-batch thermal logs retained for ten years.
