Uk's Sheffield Forgemasters Plans To Produce Ultra-large Forgings

摘要

The board of directors of Sheffield Forgemasters International Ltd. is moving ahead with plans to seek financing for a 15,000-metric-ton press that could start to produce ultra-large forgings within three years.rnThe equipment would put UK-based SFIL in direct competition with Japan Steel Works, or JSW, the developed world's monopoly supplier of such parts. Ultra-large forgings require ingots of 350 mt to 600 mt, and large forgings, 180 metric tons to 250 mt.
