Abstract
Results of many years of cooperation between NKMZ and PWI in the field of production of large billets using electroslag welding are presented. Examples of successful application of ESW for the fabrication of critical pieces of equipment and specific components are given. Potentialities and prospects of further improvement of the ESW technologies applied in heavy engineering are shown.
Keywords: structural materials, electroslag welding, heavy engineering, enlargement of billets, specialised units, welding devices
