About RheinForge

An aerospace manufacturer that behaves like a product company.

UAV & UUV subsystems, engineering, manufacturing and test — from Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

Our mission

Turn a requirement into a documented, tested subsystem — quickly.

Customers compare our invoice with an imported part or a local machine shop. We win when the engineering behind a standard variant is already done — or when the customer knowingly buys engineering.

That is why we are built around catalogue modules, configure-to-order variants, transparent NRE for genuinely custom work, and test services that produce evidence rather than promises. Our assets are the design library, interface standards, validated configurations, supplier network, test data and quality system.

What you buy vs. what we build

Every order strengthens the platform behind it

What customers buy from RheinForgeWhat RheinForge is really building
A motor, ESC and propeller setA validated propulsion configuration library
A PDB or power moduleA reusable power architecture
A battery packA traceable energy platform
A custom bracket or housingA parametric mechanical design system
A prototypeA route from requirement to production
A field trialA proprietary reliability and performance dataset
A replacement partA long-term second-source relationship

Manufacturing model

A control-tower manufacturer.

We own the steps where customer trust is created and route capital-intensive processes through qualified, dual-sourced partners until repeat volume justifies bringing them in-house.

We own

  • Product definition and design data
  • Supplier qualification and incoming inspection
  • Assembly, configuration and serialisation
  • Final QA, test and customer support

Qualified network

  • CNC machining of aluminium and engineering plastics
  • PCB fabrication and SMT assembly
  • Cell production and composite parts
  • Motor manufacturing to our specifications
Trust architecture

How a new supplier earns credibility

Every claim we make is backed by a document you can audit.

Quality

Defined incoming, in-process and final inspection.

Proof: Inspection plan, NCR log, calibration records

Traceability

Part, lot and serial tracking on every build.

Proof: Build record and supplier lot mapping

Origin

Disclosed country and manufacturer for critical purchased items where the contract requires.

Proof: Origin dossier and supplier declaration

Performance

Repeatable, documented test procedures.

Proof: Signed test report with serial number

Reliability

Warranty and a structured field-failure process.

Proof: RMA and root-cause report

Engineering

Controlled drawings and revisions.

Proof: ICD, CAD revision, BOM revision

Security

Customer-specific documentation and access controls.

Proof: Controlled document register

Certification

ISO 9001 first, then project-specific quality and test accreditations.

Proof: Certificate and audit evidence

Roadmap

Enter narrowly. Scale what wins.

0–3 months

First paid jobs and lighthouse OEM/lab relationships

RFQ system, first catalogue SKUs, test services and rapid mechanical variants.

3–6 months

First repeat order and a second-source qualification attempt

RF-PWR, RF-BAT, RF-HAR and RF-MEC formalised; first RF-PRP data sets.

6–12 months

Repeat B2B customers and ISO 9001 readiness

Configure-to-order templates, more propulsion and UUV mechanical parts.

12–18 months

UUV integrator relationship and an institutional procurement channel

UUV energy and housing pilot modules with a formal NRE process.

18–36 months

Tier-2 / defence OEM supply

Scale the winning families; insource only where utilisation is proven.
