$17.50

Product Information

Hydro has developed a low pressure casting (LPC) technology, which presents a new option for producing high quality forging stock in diameters 80 mm or wider. Notably, the technology nearly eliminates the inverse segregation zone, enabling the production of logs with a very smooth surface. This article provides an introduction to LPC technology, noting how it has been optimized to cast small diameter logs. In addition, it discusses how the technology will be implemented in the large-scale billet casthouse at Hydro's facility in Husnes, Norway.
