<p>Motovilikha enterprise is a legendary metallurgical and military equipment manufacturer. 275 years ago, they founded a copper smeltery which has grown into a huge enterprise working for the Russian defense industry. They would make artillery guns and now they produce volley fire systems. Besides, the company produces road construction and oil-processing equipment. Today, we want to take you to its metallurgical and machine building department.<br />

<p>‘Casting’ is the first mini steel foundry in Kazakhstan. It is situated in the city of Pavlodar. We are used to the fact that a steel foundry is a huge enterprise producing tons of products. Pavlodar’s ‘Casting’ disproves the case. So, welcome to this artificial hell!</p>
<p><br />
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-8.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>‘Casting’ occupies several rather compact departments.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-9.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Here they melt ferrous metal. In the photo you see how they put metal into their arc steel-smelting furnace. It looks fantastic! The fire almost reaches the ceiling!</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-10.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>This is an arc steel-smelting furnace, it is electric.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-11.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Its yearly production capacity is 1.2 million tons. Scrap metal makes 95% of its raw material and 5% are different additives.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-12.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Temperature in the furnaces reaches +1,500C!</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-13.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>They are about to melt a T-1000.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-14.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-15.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>After the scrap metal is melted, it goes into a casting machine.</p>

<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-17.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>They pour liquid steel into a water-cooled form called crystallizer.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-18.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>When the upper layers of the ingot harden and the inner part is liquid, they crystallize it again to make it hard all over.</p>
<p><img src="http://media.englishrussia.com/112012/smallsteelfoundry/smallsteelfoundry-19.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>They try to make its structure uniform.</p>

<p>Their produce includes wires, reinforcement rods and other metal-roll. A quater of what they produce is iron ingots used in seamless pipes production.</p>
