Also known as, Bearing Steel Balls, they are the most critical and specialized element of bearing.

They are produced using extremely

sophisticated and specialized machines.

Starting from the rigorous testing of the wire for all necessary parameters, balls are produced in specially designed machines called
Headder, Flasher, Grinder and Lapper. Heat treatment is one of the most critical operations which gives required strength &
hardness. It makes the balls tough and wear resistant. Apart from intermediate vigil at all operations, for all quality parameters,
finished products are also tested with extremely sophisticated equipments to ensure right quality of DSP Balls.

DSP-BALLS: PRODUCTION LINES OF PRECISION BALLS

Production lines for Precision Balls are stream-lined with optimum combinations of various processes. The process
given below illustrate how the high Quality of High Carbon High Chrome Steel balls are achieved

Raw Material

Is thoroughly inspected for Physical & Chemicals properties .

Heading
Wire coils are cold forged into spherical blanks, for compact structure, in semi-automatic machines known as single
stroke Headers.
Flashing / Filing
Die-marks on poles and equator of headed blanks are then removed by grinding them between hardened plates of
special composition, known as Flashing / Filing.
Heat Treatment
Balls are heated in controlled environment to critical temperatures & quenched to attain due hardness. Balls are
then tempered to close limits.
Grinding
Balls are ground to close tolerances in special machines with different grades of abrasives for final lapping
processes.
Lapping
Balls are lapped for final parameters of size, sphericity , lot variation and to surface quality in a series of specially
designed machines known as Lappers.

Cleaning
Balls are then prepared for macro inspection by thorough cleaning in a especially designed cleaning machine.
Macro Inspection
Whole production of DSP-BALLS goes through 100 % inspection by well trained inspectors, under suitable
magnification and light, for all surface defects.

Super finishing
Balls passed through macro inspection goes under super finishing and all Specified parameters are maintained in
required tolerances as per grade to be prepared .

Guarantee Test
During production balls are inspected at every stage for fixed stage specifications, and the material is unloaded
from the machines only on qualifying limits. Finally, during super finishing, parameters of geometry, lot variation and
surface roughness etc. are re-ensured and detailed inspection report is prepared and supplied to the customer on
demand.
Packing
Rust Prevention Oil is applied on the balls . They are then double packed in polythene bags, before being packed in
Cardboard boxes and wooden cases. Labels carrying details of sizes, quality are properly pasted.

Cargo to Export
Balls so packed are ready for Export to customers.

Also known as, Carbon Balls, they are mostly in place of Bearing Steel Balls where expected wear and tear is less. They are

Balls are made from many different varities of Stainless Steel. They are used for application where prevention of rust is desireable.
They are also use for areas where non-magnatic properties are called for. They are produced using extremely sophisticated and
specialized machines.

Starting from the rigorous testing of the wire for all necessary parameters, balls are produced in specially designed machines called
Headder, Flasher, Grinder and Lapper. Heat treatment is one of the most critical operations which gives required strength &
