Technical aspect

Scientific aspect Our Center for science and innovation is fully staffed with highly skilled experts.

Scientific aspect The continuous improvement of production technology and the development of new materials allowed to form the main technological areas of our activities: improvement of steel quality used in transport engineering, shipbuilding, welding and etc.; output that provides refining, desulphurization, modification and microalloying in production of steel and cast iron.

The main activities of the Center for sceince and innovation Development and implementation of the iron-carbon melts' modification technology that provides the output of metal with the required level of consumer properties; Improving the quality and effectiveness of nodulizers; Development and implementation of a new generation of nodulizers – multi-elements, mixed, flux-metall, etc., providing the output of steel with improved consumer properties.

Relevant scientific objections: Differentiation of composition and application technology of nodulizers for steel and cast iron for various purposes. Microatomization of steels and cast iron structures as a result of modifying processing. Increase in the purity of metal for gases and nonmetallic inclusions by optimizing the composition of nodulizers. Creating nodulizers of prolonged action.

Technological development Together with South Ural State University we implement the program "Improving the quality and performance properties of steel for different purposes by enhancement the technology of modifying iron-carbon melts with the use of nodulizing materials of new generation" The purpose of the work: development of technology for smelting, ensuring output of steel with improved performance characteristics; optimization of the structural condition and homogeneity increase for different purposes; increasing purity (for gases and nonmetallic inclusions) and microatomization of the metal structure; optimizing the composition of complex brand-new nodulizers; introduction of new technologies and materials for smelting at steel works.

Technological development getting convincing experimental results that reveal the effect mechanism of various nodulizing materials on the structure and properties of steel consumption. complex (using the most modern methods) study of the metal's fine structure, using various nodulizing material and technologies for their application. experimental metal smelting in laboratory with the use of various nodulizers and technologies. evaluation of gas content, composition and morphology of nonmetallic inclusions and dispersed particles, the size and nature of the grain structure in the laboratory and pilot industrial metals. evaluation of experimental steel's mechanical properties obtained by using different nodulizers.

Production areas are based in Chelyabinsk on the territory of ZAO Ferrosplav, established in Production

Since 2006 the Quality management system is implied for the successful performance in compliance with the requirements of standard GOST R ISO (certified by TUF ISO 9001:2008).

Participation in exhibitions Since 2006 every year we take part in the Annual International exclusive exhibition Metal-Expo. The quality of our production is proved by medals and diplomas received on this exhibition.

Legal aspect We hold patent rights on the cored wire and the fillers we produce.
