Infrastructure
Sumex Auto Tech operates a machining-focused manufacturing facility in Punjab, India, equipped for vertically integrated production of UJ Crosses and propeller shaft components. The setup spans CNC/VMC/HMC machining, gear hobbing, broaching, induction hardening, centreless and cylindrical grinding, dynamic balancing, surface treatment, and a calibrated QA laboratory.
Manufacturing Capabilities
Machining — CNC / VMC / HMC
- CNC machines — Turning of UJ cross bodies, shaft diameters, and yoke profiles
- VMC machines — Multi-face milling operations requiring positional and angular feature control
- HMC machines — Batch production with controlled datum referencing and cycle consistency
- Multi-axis capability — Complex geometries machined in-house without outsourcing
Gear & Spline Processing
- Gear hobbing machines — External spline profiles — controlled module and pressure angle
- Broaching machines — Internal spline generation with profile accuracy and fitment control
Heat Treatment
- Induction hardening setup — Controlled power, frequency, and dwell parameters — case depth and HRC verified per batch
- In-house capability — Eliminates external heat treatment dependency — process parameters fully controlled
Grinding Section
- Centreless grinding — Trunnion ODs, shafts, and cylindrical features to final size and surface finish
- Cylindrical grinding — Precision diameter and roundness on critical bores and ODs
Dynamic Balancing
Propeller shaft sub-components requiring rotational balance — flange yokes, stub shafts, and assembled sections — are dynamically balanced to specification to minimise vibration in service.
Surface Processing
- Shot blasting — Oxide and scale removal prior to inspection and coating
- Glide coating — Corrosion resistance and assembly-compatible surface treatment on functional features
