Soft magnetic iron strips are essential parts used in the manufacturing of power conversion apparatus and electromagnetic devices. They are crucial to many sectors, including electronics, power distribution, and telecommunications, because of their special magnetic characteristics, which allow for the effective control and transformation of electrical energy.
A number of variables, such as the sectors that depend on electromagnetic devices, technical developments, and general economic situations, affect the need for soft magnetic iron strips. These strips are essential parts used in the manufacture of inductors, transformers, etc.
Under IS standard IS 11946: 1987, all kinds of soft magnetic iron strips are now covered by the required ISI Certification Scheme.
The requirements for cold-rolled soft magnetic iron strips are described in this standard. These strips are mostly used in electromagnetic applications, such as relay yokes, armatures, and other similar parts found in electrical machinery and equipment.
The substance must show homogeneity in terms of composition, microstructure, and macrostructure, as well as conformity to the designated chemical composition standard. It should also be free of any physical flaws, both internal and exterior. It is anticipated that the received strips will be smooth, flat, and free of any buckling, bending, or waviness. The material within the coil must undergo uniform treatment, resulting in consistent hardness and characteristics, ensuring that it uncoils smoothly without any distortions.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
