CASTINGS

Characteristic of DFM ZANAM-LEGMET’s Foundry

DFM ZANAM-LEGMET's Foundry produces cast-iron and cast-steel castings. The manufacturing profile covers approximately 2 000 types of products each year. So huge volume of offered products let us meet expectations, requirements and needs of each, even small and individual customer. Wide range of materials used for castings production helps us to reach this target.

From the beginning of its existence, the Foundry produces mainly cast-steel castings. For the last few years, production structure has been shaped in such a way that about 85% of it consists of cast-steel castings and remaining part of cast-iron castings (mainly ductile).

Casting moulds are made using two methods - 60% of them are handmade and remaining 40% are machine-molded.

Cast-steel castings

In our wide offer, there are app. 30 types of cast steels used for production of castings. Those are: construction-carbon cast steels, alloy cast steels, cast steels for hardening and solution with higher durability and abrasion-resistance, produced according to National and European standards. Also the weight range of produced castings is very wide.

Depending on the amount and molding type it is as follows:

  • small lot machine-production - from 5 to 100 kg
  • piece handmade-production - from 30 to 3 500 kg
All cast steel castings are heat treated in the modern and fully automatic furnaces (standardization, annealing, solution heat treatment, hardening and tempering, others). Higher and higher customers' requirements and searching for better materials (durability, abrasion resistance) made Foundry specialize in the production of such castings. Produced from medium and high-alloyed cast steels, heat treated castings accounts currently for 75% of all cast steel castings.

Cast-iron castings

In the Foundry's offer, there are also grey and ductile cast iron castings mentioned in both national and European standards. Technology of production in electric-arc furnaces let us gain metal of highest quality, requested chemical composition, characteristics and structure, that will satisfy even the most demanding customer. The weight range of produced cast iron castings is also very wide. Depending on the amount and molding type it is as follows:
  • small lot machine-production- from 5 to 100 kg for grey and ductile cast iron
  • piece handmade-production - from 20 to 4 000 kg for grey and from 20 to 1 500 for ductile cast iron
Cast iron castings can be heat treated depending on customer's needs and requirements.

Groups of products

Among groups of products, that dominate in the Foundry's offer, there are mainly those, that are characterized by the biggest technological progress and high quality of materials used for castings.

Castings produced in the Foundry can be categorized as follows:
  • castings for crushers: jaws, impact borders, crushing cones, hammers, linings and other
  • castings for grinders: armoured linings, beaters, perimeter linings, chute cones, feeds, journal casings, inlet and outlet bushings, others
  • teeth castings for excavators, loaders
  • castings of backfill accessories for mining
  • castings of brake calipers for heavy machines
  • castings of anode plates and chills for copper smelters
  • castings for haul trucks and conveyors
Moreover, individual and specific orders are also completed according to delivered technical documentation. It is also possible to make casting moulds on customers request. All castings are offered in raw state or after mechanical working.
