Introduction to D.L.W.
Background – Diesel Locomotive Works (DLW) is production unit
under the ministry of railways. This was setup in collaboration with
American locomotive company (ALCO) USA in 1961 and the first
locomotive was rolled out in 1964. This unit produces diesel electronic
locomotives and DG sets for Indian railways and other customers in India
and Abroad.
Subsequently a contract for transfer of technology of 4000 HP
Microprocessor Controlled AC/AC Freight (GT 46 MAC) / passenger
(GT 46 PAC) locomotives and family of 710 engines has been signed
with electro motive division of general motors of USA for manufacture
in DLW. the production of these locomotives has now started and thus
DLW is the only manufacturers of Diesel Electric Locomotives with both
ALCO and General motors technologies in the world.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Quality has been a crusade in DLW since its very inception. We
actively inculcate the primary importance of manufacturing a quality
product in all our workmen, supervisors and engineers from the day
they join DLW. Each of our workmen is continually trained and retrained
in Quality aspects.
Modern instrumentation and machinery help the workmen in
maintaining a high standard of quality. Under ISO 9002 certification
scheme, all our jigs and fixtures, tools and gauges are calibrated
regularly according to a carefully worked out plan.
DLW has a fully equipped Gauge Room for calibration of gauges,
and a tool room for checking of jigs and fixtures. To supplement the
rigorous standards of certification for DLW's vendors, almost all
bought-out items are subjected to quality checks and certified by
our incoming inspection. Now DLW's Quality thrust has been
certified by an internationally accredited ISO certifying body, and
DLW is proud owner of ISO 9002 certificate for the entire range of
manufacturing activities.
