Steel for heavy forgings – forging process
Steel for heavy forgings - forging process Large ingots are required for smelting and forging large forgings. The single weight of large ingots ranges from 30 to several hundred tons. The larger the ingot is, the more serious the metallurgical defects such as segregation are. Therefore, the smelting requirements of steel for large forgings are very strict. In order to ensure the casting of extra large steel ingots, it is generally necessary to use more than two smelting furnaces for casting, so it is not necessary to increase the capacity of a single furnace and reduce the erosion of refractory…
