FWD STEEL CASTING

Heavy Steel Smelting & Pouring (Up to 300T)

One of the few foundries worldwide that pours 300-ton single castings.

Two large foundry bases with eight molding pits give us the physical room that ultra-heavy castings demand. Molds are produced with the sodium-silicate sand process, giving large castings excellent dimensional stability and surface quality.

Melting capacity is built around four electric arc furnaces — 25T, 30T, 50T and 80T — combined for large pours, plus a 120T LF ladle refining furnace that degasses and desulfurizes every heat. Thirty cranes with up to 300T lifting capacity move molds, ladles and castings through the shop safely.

After shakeout, our 150/300T rotary-table shot blasting machine cleans castings of any size, and four large natural-gas heat treatment furnaces handle stress relief, normalizing and tempering.
