2. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
 I wish to express my gratitude to all those whom I interacted and
whose thoughts and insists helped me in increasing my knowledge
and understanding of working of an organization.
 I feel great pleasure in presenting by obligation to all shop in charges
who helped me throughout the training period.
 I am very thankful to the various departments in charges and
technicians for helping me clear my concepts about the plant and
providing me with required information.

3. INTRODUCTION
 As our country gained independence, our leaders saw a dream
of an industrialized India, competing with rest of the world. Our
leaders knew that there was an urgent need to industrialize the
country to a rapid rate. Therefore a plan was formulated to a
build several industries across the country within 10-15 years.
 Just after independence, industrializing a nascent country like
India would require a rapid rise in the per capita consumption of
steel which have fallen to 16 kg compared to 438 kg in U.K and
324 kg in Japan.
 It was during the second 5 year plan the model propounded by
the great economist Prasanta Chandra Mahlanobis in 1935 was
adopted. This 5 year plan focused on industries especially heavy
industries. Accordingly 5 steel mills at Bhillai , Bokaro, Rourkela
and Burnpur were to be set up with foreign collaboration since an
indigenous effort would have been near impossible. Countries
like Germany , Soviet Union and Britian extended their help and
provided with the technological knowhow to build up these
plants.

4.  It was analyzed that importing machines to set up these in
would be cause a major drain in foreign exchange , the
machines and equipments be built within the country.
 As a result idea of Heavy engineering Corporation came up.
 Heavy Engineering Corporation was built with Soviet
Collaboration was incorporated on 31st December 1958 by the
prime minister Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru. Location in Ranchi state
Jharkhand.

5. HEAVY ENGINEERING CORPORATION
 Heavy Engineering Corporation Limited or ‘H.E.C Ltd.’ is a Public
Sector Undertaking (‘PSU’) in India. HEC was established in the
year 1958 as one of the largest integrated Engineering complex
in India. It manufactures and supplies capital equipments &
machineries and renders project execution required for core
sector industries. It has complete manufacturing set up starting
from casting & forging, fabrication, machining, assembly and
testing – all at one location, Ranchi, backed by a strong design –
engineering and technology team.
 HEC Ltd.’s Plants:
 It consists of three units:
 Heavy machine building plant(HMBP)
 The plant has a fenced area of 5,70,000 sq.m and a floor area of
nearly 2,00,000 sq.m. It is well equipped with sophisticated
machine tools and handling equipment to undertake manufacture
of heavy machinery and equipment of top quality. It is engaged
in design and manufacture of equipment and components for
steel plant, mining, mineral processing, crushers, nuclear power
etc.

6.  Heavy Machine Tool Plant (HMTP)
 Set up in collaboration with M/s Skoda export Czechoslovika,
HMTP is the most modern and sophisticated of its kind in the
country which produces machine tools in heavier ranges. The
plant covers an area of over 2,13,500 sq.m. It design and
manufactures medium & heavy duty CNC and conventional
Machine tools for Railway, Defense, Ordnance factories, HAL,
space and other strategic sectors.
 Foundry forge plant (FFP)
 It is the largest foundry and forging complex in India and one
of the largest of its kind in the world. The area of the plant is
13,16,930 sq.m accomodating 76,000 tonnes of installed
machinery to cope up with the various operatrion effectively.
This plant is the manufacturer of heavy casting and forgings
for various HEC make equipments and related to steel plant,
Power, Nuclear energy etc. Manufacturer of forged rolls for
steel plants, crank shaft for Railway Loco etc.

7.  Project Division
 Design, Engineering and execution of turnkey projects related
to Bulk Material handling, steel plant, cement plant and other
sectors.
