INDUSTRY PROFILE
Aviation of one of the most significant technological influences of our times and empowers the nation with
strength. It is a major tool for economic development and has significant role in nationally security
relations.’
The word AVIATION is derived from the Latin word “avis” is the practical aspects of acronautics,being
the desgin,development,production,operation and use of aircraft. The word aviation was coined by the fresh
writer and former naval officer Gobriel La Landelle in 1873.
December 17, 1903 by the Wright brothers. The wright brothers were the first to fly in a powered and
controlled aircraft. Previous flight were gliders or free flight but the Wright brothers combined both, setting
the new standard in aviation records. Following this, the widespread adoption of aileous rather than wing
warping made aircraft much easier to control and only a decade later. At the start of World war I, heavier
than air powered aircraft had become practical for reconnaissance ,artillery spotting and even attacks against
ground positions.
Aircraft began to transport people and cargo as designs grew large and more reliable. The wright brothers
took along the first passenger ,Charles Funas ,one of their mechanics on may 14,1908.
During the 1920s and 1930s great progress was made in the field of aviation including the first transatlantic
flight in 1927 and Charles Kingsford Smith’s transpacific flight the following year. One of the most
successful designs to this period was the Douglas DC-3 which became the first airliner to profitable carrying
passenger exclusively starting the modern era of passenger airline service.
WORLD SCENARIO
The field of Aviation has been investigated for millennium but modern aviation began with the powered
flight on 16 december 1903 by the WRIGHT BROTHERS. From the today aviation has grown to be one
of the most existing ,diverse and fast growing field of today. From the hot air balloons of 18 century to the
first manned machine to the moon on Apollo to the new and Bombardier, aerospace has come a long way
over a century.
The Aerospace and Defense industry was struggling to maintain profitability even before September 2001,
and fears of further terrorism, the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq and aweak economy combined to
devastate the commercial aerospace industry over the ensuring years. On the other hand the wars in
Afghanistan and Iraq.
Spread out almost 30years, it may be the last deal for drones it expected to continue supplanting the need
for the expensive manned aircraft and making it necessary to risk pilots lives in combats. In the interim ,the
soaring costs in Iraq have also put a damper on some other major projects. In 2004 the US army cancelled
the planned $40 billion apache reconnaissance.
MILLITARY
Millitary aviation is the use of military aircraft and other flying machines for the purposes of conducting
or enabling aerial warfare, including martional aircraft capacity to provide logistical supply to forces
stationed in a theatre or along a front. Airpower includes the national means of conducting such warfare,
including the intersection of transport and war craft. Military aircraft include bombers, fighters ,transports,
trainer aircraft and reconnaissance aircraft.
The Indian Air force, Indian Naval Air Arm and Army Aviation Corps are the air arms of int Indian armed
forces. The Indian air Force is the world’s 4th largest air force with primary responsibility for securing
Indian airspace and to conduct aerial warfare during a conflict. It was officially established on 8 October
1932 as an auxiliary air force of the British Empire and the prefix Royal was added in 1945 in recognition
of its services during World War II. Following the Indian Independence Act 1947,the new states of India
and Pakistan became independent from the United Kingdom ,the Royal Indian Air Force served the
Dominion of Indian with the prefix being dropped when India became a republic in 1950. since
independence ,the IAF has been involved in four was with neighboring Pakistan and one with the People’s
Republic of China. Other major operations undertaken by the IAF include operation Vijay, Operation
Meghdoot ,Operation Cactus and Operation Poomalai. Apart from conflicts in the subcontinental, the IAF
has been an active participant in United Nations peace keeping missions.

Quality control or QC for short is a process by which entries review the quality of all factors involved in
production. This approach places an emphasis on three aspects.
Elements such as control, job management, defined and well managed processes, performance and
integrity criteria and identification of records.
Soft elements such as confidence,organizational culture, motivation, team spirit and quality
relationship.
Control includes product inspection, where every product is examined visually and often using a stereo
microscope for fine detail before the product is sold into the external market. Inspector will be provided
with lists and description of unacceptable product defects such as cracks or surface blemishes for example:
1. Inspection.
2. Quality assurance.
1) As test piece from the given cast is sent for inspection of its proper chemistry.
3) Then the work piece goes for crack detection test wherein external defects are tested. This is done by
using fluorescent penetrant technique or red dye penetrant technique.
4) Then the work piece is tested for internal defects such as blowholes etc using radiography.
5) Then the test bar goes for tensile test wherein its tensile properties, ultimate tensile strength are
inspected. Sometimes creep test, fatigue test etc are also performed.

The McKinsey 7-S model involves seven interdependent factors which are categorized as either "hard" or
"soft" elements:
"Hard" elements are easier to define or identify and management can directly influence them: These are
strategy statements; organization charts and reporting lines; and formal processes and IT systems.
"Soft" elements, on the other hand, can be more difficult to describe, and are less tangible and more
influenced by culture. However, these soft elements are as important as the hard elements if the organization
is going to be successful.
The way the model is presented in Figure 1 below depicts the interdependency of the elements and indicates
how a change in one affects all the others.
Structure: The way the organization is structured and who reports to whom.
MARKETING DEPARTMENT
Marketing is an important activity for an organization irrespective of its nature, size and type of
industry in which it operates. Marketing and selling are often mistaken as synonyms but hold a
complete different meaning individually. Marketing department currently deals with marketing

SYSTEM :
Traditionally, the operating system kernel was responsible for providing an abstract interface to the
hardware the system ran on. Applications used the system call interface, or performed
file I/Oon device nodes in order to communicate with hardware through these abstractions. This
sufficed for the simple hardware of early desktop computing.
Computer hardware, however, has increased in complexity and the abstractions provided by Unix
kernels have not kept pace with the proliferating number of device and peripheral types now
common on both server and desktop computers. Most modern buses have also become hotplug-
capable and can have non-trivial topologies. As a result, devices are discovered or change state in
ways which can be difficult to track through the system call interface or Unix IPC. The complexity
of doing so forces application authors to re-implement hardware support logic.
Some devices also require privileged helper programs to prepare them for use. These must often be
invoked in ways that can be awkward to express with the Unix permissions model (for example,
allowing users to join wireless networks only if they are logged into the video console). Application
authors resort to using setuid binaries or run service daemons to provide their own access control
and privilege separation, potentially introducing security holes each time.
HAL is a single daemon responsible for discovering, enumerating and mediating access to most of
the hardware on the host computer. Applications communicate with HAL through the D-
BusIPC mechanism, which abstracts the hardware behind an object-based RPC mechanism.
Each logical hardware device is represented as a D-Bus object, and its bus address is used as a
unique identifier. Devices include abstractions like disk partitions and visible wireless networks.
The device's functionality is exposed through D-Bus interfaces, and its state accessed
through properties, a set of key-value pairs.
HAL broadcasts hardware events as signals on these objects; applications can listen for signals and
react to the hardware events that they signify — events such as a digital camera being plugged in,
an optical disc spinning up or a laptop computer closing its lid

SWOT ANALYSIS
Swot Analysis
Strengths:
Great Production Capacity – One of the greatest strengths of HAL is production capacity, which
is one of the best in the country. It can be assessed from the fact that it has an impressive product
track record – 12 types of aircraft manufactured with in house R & D and 14 types produced under
license. HAL has over the years manufactured early 3350 aircrafts, 3600 engines and overhauled
over 8150 aircrafts and 27300 engines.
Infrastructural Advantage – The Company has good infrastructural support for its operations.
There is a department called Plant maintenance in every division which continuously takes care of
the infrastructural needs of the divisions. Separate infrastructure is made for the design, R&D and
sale support.
Reliable Equipment Maintenance – HAL provides reliable after sales support and maintenance
support, even for the oldest projects like MiG 21 which was made in the year 1965 unlike its
competitors. This advantage attracts the customers towards the company.
Robust Design Facilities – The Company provides the advantage of robust design according to
the specifications given by the customer.
Accreditations – HAL has got Accreditations from world labs like SemiLac, DGCA etc.
Weaknesses:
Government rules and regulations – The Government riles impose certain problems in the daily
operations of the company. The labour unions resorting to strikes, union elections or recent
problems related to pay revisions among labourers can cause enormous time delay in the projects.
Lesser Accountability – The lesser accountability sometimes leads to more overhead costs.
Increasing manufacturing cost – The increasing manufacturing cost every year due to fixed
labour hours and labour rate which cannot be changed pose problems for the company, as these
costs are much higher than the private sector.
Opportunities:
Increased number of emerging business markets – The Company initially catered to only its
defence customers. But with the new markets related to civil aviation and contracts relating to civil
aviation and contracts relating to maintenance of aircrafts coming to HAL, these markets have
given immense opportunities to the company.
Access to International Markets - As direct entry of other foreign defence companies is not
allowed in India due to security reasons, the Joint Ventures and the Transfer of Technology process
between HAL and these companies present high growth potential for HAL and also indirectly gives
access to these international markets.
Threats:
Increasing competition – The ever increasing competition from various giant private sector
players like LnT, Mahindra and Mahindra etc; can impose a serious threat to the Company; as the
company is used to monopolistic environment over the years.
Recommendation
The world of casting is seemingly an easy job, but prone to defects that cannot be identified by the naked
eyes, or while conducting the process. Whether it is investment casting, or be it in any foundry, say the
magnesium foundry or the non ferrous foundry, pouring defects, cracks, inclusions, etc, are bound to take
place. However , on our part, we can only, take certain precautions to prevent these defects from taking
place. Defects may also arise due to variable rates of cooling, and cause shrinkage defects. So, a suitable
study of these defects, is scattered over many books, and often it is difficult to find or purchase these
books due to their rarity or cost. So, as a student, it is our duty, to make this information available to
every possible person, with an interest for the knowledge of casting. This project report, as a whole aims
at providing an avenue for the identification of defects by radiograph and others methods by physical
examination.
