HAL completes rocket engineering manufacturing facility

26 Sep 2022 , 03:30 PM

An integrated cryogenic engine manufacturing facility (ICMF) for the Indian Space Research Organization has been established here by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited for a cost of Rs 208 crore.
The cutting-edge ICMF, built across a 4,500 square metre space holding more than 70 high-tech tools and testing facilities for producing cryogenic (CE20) and semi-cryogenic (SE2000) engines of Indian rockets, will be officially opened by President Droupadi Murmu on Tuesday.

In order to create a facility for producing cryogenic engine modules at HAL’s Aerospace Division, an MOU with ISRO was inked in 2013. That MOU was later revised in 2016 to allow for the establishment of the ICMF with an investment of Rs 208 crore.
The commissioning of all essential machinery for the manufacturing and assembly requirements has been completed, according to Bengaluru-based HAL, which also announced the start of pre-production operations, including the creation of process and quality plans and drawings.

In a statement, HAL promised that it would begin producing the modules by March 2023. The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV), Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV MK-II), Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV Mk-III), and stage integration for GSLV Mk-II are all manufactured by HAL Aerospace Division.
“Under one roof, the facility (ICMF) will house all of ISRO’s rocket engine manufacturing. Increased self-reliance in the production of high-thrust rocket engines would result from the facility “In a statement, HAL added. The statement claimed that cryogenic engines are the most often utilised engines in launch vehicles worldwide. Due to the cryogenic engine’s complexity, only a few nations–the USA, France, Japan, China, and Russia have achieved technological mastery to yet.

India became the sixth nation to develop cryogenic engines on January 5, 2014, it declared, after successfully launching the GSLV-D5 with a cryogenic engine. The NewsSpace India Limited (NSIL), the commercial arm of the Department of Space, awarded the Rs860 crore contract to the HAL-L&T collaboration recently for the end-to-end realisation of five PSLVs over a four-year period.
