- Indian raw materials pass critical technical benchmarking.
Nexon Geochem Completes First Technical Evaluation Phase
Nexon Geochem Private Limited has completed the first phase of technical evaluation and benchmarking of Indian-origin raw materials with its Russian technology partner, Giredmet, for manufacturing Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets. The successful testing of the first batch enables the company to move toward pilot production, technical qualification, and domestic customer validation. Nexon Geochem is developing an integrated domestic manufacturing chain designed to convert Indian raw materials into finished permanent magnets spanning the N35 to N52 grade range.
Indian Raw Materials Undergo Technical Benchmarking
Under the evaluation protocol, Nexon Geochem Private Limited supplied domestically sourced Nd-Pr oxide, iron, and ferroboron to Giredmet in Russia. The technical assessment verified the conversion of Nd-Pr oxide into Nd-Pr metal, examined chemical composition and impurity profiles, and benchmarked critical magnetic performance metrics. The testing was focused on validating whether Indian-origin raw materials could be integrated into the required technology platform and support the technical pathway toward domestic production.
Validated Route Supports Pilot Production and Customer Applications
“This is a critical accomplishment for Nexon because we have technically validated the pathway for integrating Indian-origin raw materials into the required technology platform,” said Praveen Choudhary, Founder of Nexon Geochem. “Our focus now is to take this validated route into pilot production and customer applications in India.” The completion of the first testing phase therefore establishes the technical basis for the next stages, including pilot production, technical qualification, and validation with domestic customers, while advancing the company's objective of an integrated manufacturing chain.
