## Operating Segments
### Engineering & Technologies Division

Engineering & Technologies is the oldest division of the company. The division manufactures capital equipment for the metallurgical industry, as well as handling the production of transformers. The company has also introduced the High Speed Modular Caster (HSMC) for direct rolling of billets which has substantially brought down the cost of rolling through a huge saving in fuel consumption and burning losses in the billet reheating furnaces.

### Steel Division

Electrotherm has built a mini steel plant of 0.70 million TPA capacity. The plant consists of sponge iron kilns, induction melting furnaces, rolling mills, and a 30MW captive power plant. The plant also utilises LRF technology allowing it to produce low sulphur, low phosphorus steel grades for forging applications. There are 2 rolling mills – A TMT mill with a capacity of 180,000 TPA and structure mill with a capacity of 72,000 TPA. The structure mill is certified by Power Grid (PGCIL). The plant also makes use of the AOD process for stainless steel production with a total installed capacity of 120,000 TPA. Products include value-added stainless steel, TMT bars for construction applications, Angles for transmission line and wind mills application, as well as mild steel and carbon steel billets for forging applications

### Ductile Iron Pipe Division

Electrotherm has emerged as the third largest player in the Ductile Iron Pipe market. Electrotherm's Kutch plant has a production capacity of 0.2 million TPA to manufacture pipes with diameters ranging from 80 to 1200mm. BIS certification for products with diameters up to 1200 mm have been received. The plant consists of 2 mini blast furnaces (200,000 TPA), a sinter plant (300,000 TPA) and centrifugal pipe casting and processing (1,92,000 TPA)
