Abstract

The development of electroslag casting (ESC) at the MA “Kolomensk Heavy Machinery Plant (KHMP) began in 1974. The first two stages of this work consisted of producing castings in type A-550 ESR furnaces; analyses of the properties of cast electroslag (ES) steel and comparisons with forged steel; and production of various castings weighing up to 3 tons in the welded steel freezer molds of the R-951UM ESR furnace. A detailed description of that period is given in the book Problems of Electroslag Technology, which is devoted to the 20th anniversary of electroslag remelting (ESR) (1978).
