INTRODUCTION
HMT Machine Tools Ltd., Kalamassery is among the five machine tool manufacturing units of the subsidiary company HMT Machine Tools Ltd. The holding company is HMT Ltd. Machine Tools production started in India in 19 ! "ith the commissioning of the first factory of HMT at #angalore in collaboration "ith $%&L%K$' ("it)erland to cataly)e industrial gro"th.

Through this division of "or+, individuals can become specialists at a specific /ob. #ecause there are several people often in different locations "or+ing to"ard a common ob/ective, 0there must be a plan sho"ing ho" the "or+ "ill be organi)ed. The plan for the systematic arrangement of "or+ is the organization structure. $rgani)ation structure is comprised of functions, relationships, responsibilities, authorities, and communications of individuals "ithin each department. The typical depiction of structure is the organi)ational chart. The organi)ational chart has been described as loo+ing li+e a tree, "ith the roots representing the president and the board of directors, "hile the branches symboli)e the various departments and the leaves depict the staff "or+ers. $rgani)ational study helps a researcher to understand the "or+ing and policy ma+ing activities of the company as a "hole.

Though the casting processes are based on techni*ues that are age old and ama)ingly simple in principle considering the effectiveness of the results achieved the metal casting industries have become the +ey industries in the "orld today. 6oundry industries based on casting principles. 2asting is a process I producing metal parts of desired shape by pouring molten metal in to a prepared mould and then allo"ing the metal to cool and solidify. This solidified metal is +no"n as casting.
HMT FOUNDRY
The foundry attached to the machine tools division to manufacture all cast iron and spheroidal graphite iron re*uired for machine tools and printing machinery division and can also underta+e /ob orders. %stablished in 19<E "ith @$LI(H design, it is semi mechanised foundry producing heavy duty grey and (? iron , castings for machine tools and printing machines using means fre*uency induction furnace for melting and resine bonded sand for moulding and core ma+ing.
OBJECTIVES OF FOUNDRY DIVISION

In any business organi)ation, production activities must be related to mar+et demands as indicated by the continuous stream of customer orders. .ggregate planning is carried out in an economic manner for ma=imisation of production. 6rom the annual operating plan, rolling production plan for three months is made. $b/ective of the foundry division is to achieve the annual production target in an economic manner by the timely supply of castings to the production shop and the outside customers.
This can be achieved by 1: &educing percentage re/ection of casting in foundry.

Ma+e the pattern out of "ood, metal or thermo coal. Incase of sand casting select, test and prepare the necessary sand mi=tures for mould and for ma+ing. 5ith the help of patterns prepare the mould and necessary cores. . mould is a container having a cavity of the shape to be cast and core is a body "hich is employed to produce a cavity in the casting. Melt the metal to be cast. @our the molten metal in the mould. &emove the casting from the mould after the metal solidifies. 2lean and finish the casting for priming. Test and inspect the casting. &emove the defectors if any salvage. @asting is ready for shipping.

The process of ma+ing a pattern is +no"n as pattern ma+ing and the person "ho ma+es the pattern is +no"n as pattern ma+er. The s+illed pattern ma+er must combine an ability to reach a blue prints, visuali)e the finished products understand each step in the moulding and casting process.

SELECTION OF P!TTERN M!TERI!L

The follo"ing factors assist in selecting proper pattern material The number of casting to be produced. The desired dimensional accuracy and surface finish re*uired for the casting.

In free mar+et economies, manufacturing occurs under some degree of government regulation. Modern manufacturing includes all intermediate processes re*uired for the production and integration of a productDs components.
