Making and Casting (Principles of Metallurgy)

This is a very information dense video explaining...

  • where iron ore comes from and what it contains
  • how blast furnaces purify iron from ore
  • forming the iron from the furnace into steel
  • arc furnaces melting and purifying already formed steel
  • further steel refining
  • casting of the steel into shape via...
    • sand casting
    • continuous casting
    • ingot casting
This would be a great summary of the steel processing processes in class.

There's not much exciting to watch. I'm keeping the tone of my writing this week in line with the tone of the video so you know what to expect.

Thank you for reading.
