New molding area

On February 1, 2020, at the foundry of the Navoi machine-building plant, a new molding section for manual molding of heavy castings was opened.

The event was attended by representatives of the labor collective and veterans of the foundry. Speaking at the opening of the new site, Deputy General Director of NMMC G. Suleymanov, labour veteran S. Eshmuradov noted the need for further modernization of the foundry in order to increase production. Employees who took an active part in the implementation of this project were awarded honorable certificates and valuable gifts.

After opening the site, employees demonstrated the first molding and pouring of metal into flasks. On the site, a new embossing grid was installed for knocking out filled forms, and a parade ground was also made for assembling filling forms. Now, in addition to large-sized forms, the rest of the complex forms for castings are formed on the new site.  

With the launch of the new molding site, the volume of steel casting for the production of mining equipment increases by 2000-2200 tons per year. Several tens new jobs were also created.
