Foundry

Sasovo foundry factory – this is a modern high-tech foundry that was created to provide the machine building complex and other industries with high quality molded castings from various grades of steel and cast iron.

The main advantage of our foundry production is its technological flexibility and the ability to manufacture various types of castings using a single technology and in a single stream, which allows to perform high quality orders both in small volumes and in small batches and to produce serial products.

The foundry was opened in 2003.

Planned capacity is 250 000 kg of iron casting per month.

• Induction melting units INDUCTOTHERM;
• IMF forming equipment using high-speed third generation mixers and mechanical regeneration of the molding mixture; 
• automated line of moldless molding. 

The site for the production of large molds makes it possible to manufacture castings in flasks weighing up to 6200 kg.

Research and development department

Factory laboratory

At the Sasovo Foundry there is a factory laboratory, the main tasks of which are:

• Spectral laboratory– determination of the chemical composition of various types of cast iron and steels;
• Mechanical laboratory – static and dynamic tests for resistance, tensile, hardness;
• Metallography laboratory – research of microstructure of cast iron and steel;
• Land laboratory– incoming inspection, samples and measurements of bulk materials;
• Chemical laboratory – chemical analysis of various types of cast iron and steels.

Qualified specialists carry out casting control at all stages of the production process, including verifying and metrological supervision.

AMONG THE KEY CUSTOMERS OF THE SASOVO FOUNDRY FACTORY THERE ARE MACHINE-BUILDING AND MACHINE-BUILDING ENTERPRISES OF RUSSIA AND CIS COUNTRIES:
