The new equipment was produced at Uralmash plant by the order of the experimental design office “Micron” (Norilsk Nickel is the final receiver). The customer decided not to purchase a furnace on the territory of Finland and chose Uralmash plant. The new furnace’s weight is 287 tons. It consists of a bottom and 13 belts of 16 m diameter each.
In the process of production the designers of Uralmash plant worked out a special stand which allowed to turn the entire construction, control the flexion of its sections and meet the necessary dimensions.
