The shop floor manufacturing of a main shaft has been performed to confirm the feasibility of using continuously cast round bloom in the manufacture of heavy forgings. Using a round bloom instead of an ingot shows good product qualities and increases the raw material recovery ratio. Further details can be found in the article, number 2000079 , by Young Hoon Moon and co‐workers.
