C2A Approach (Castings to Assembly)

Defect reduction principles say that ‘The point of detection of defect should be as closer as possible to point of occurrence’. The biggest advantage of having foundry plus machining capabilities at one location is that any defects are detected within the plant. So, we’re able to dispatch only perfect units. To ensure that all our client’s requirements are attended to with utmost attention and delivered well in time, we don’t outsource anything. This ensures critical time saving and results in stronger business relations with our clients.

SEACO is a one-stop-shop solution for all casting and machining needs. With a very low lead time and a perfected bouquet of solutions, SEACO delivers high quality products at lightning speeds.
