DCM Engineering has been an industrial front runner in the Indian sub continent. The history of DCM Engineering goes back to 1889 with the Delhi Cloth Mills, when industry was in its infancy in India. Anticipating the tremendous boom in the automobile sector both nationally and internationally, the DCM Engineering Group setup a Grey Iron Foundry in 1977 with the capacity of 17000 MTPA as Division of DCM Engineering Limited. This was subsequently hived off as an independent company "DCM Engineering Limited” in 2004 (effective April 2001).

Capacity of this foundry was increased to 35,000 & 50,000 MTPA in the year 1994-95 & 2005-06 respectively. Recently, this capacity has been increased to 72,000 MTPA. This foundry is one of the leading foundries in India, in the segment of Automotive Castings. The foundry specializes in the manufacture of Cylinder Heads, Cylinder Blocks and Housings. The company has achieved the annual turnover level of INR 4100 million during the year 2012-13.

DCM Engineering is supplying castings across all segments in automotive market: Passenger Cars, Utility Vehicles, Tractors, Commercial Vehicles, Construction Equipment and Gensets. DCM Engineering is also exporting consistently for last 10 years. Its association with international customers includes General Motors and Perkins UK.

DCM Engineering is now investing heavily in the latest Automatic Core Cell from Loramendi, Spain. Assembled cores will be the output of Auto Core Cell. This will result in castings with minimal weight variation from the Design weight, having highest level of dimensional accuracies, reduced core breakage and high productivity. Further parting line fins and Mismatch will be minimal thus reducing excessive fettling. DCM Engineering also invested in CNC Fettling Machines from Maus, Italy. With these machines the Blocks are getting fettled in-house with greatly reduced manual work content.
