The high-grade low-sulfur and low-phosphorus forged steel balls from Haoyang Casting and Forging of Jinan have been certified by France's ASN and have been installed in the Flamanville Nuclear Power Plant. The sulfur and phosphorus content is ≤ 0.005%, and the fatigue life is 100,000 impact cycles without cracks. The innovative vacuum degassing process has achieved a flaw detection pass rate of 99.8%, breaking the French technological monopoly. It has obtained the EU CE certification and is expected to export 3,000 tons per year. Plans to add 2 more nuclear power production lines.

In 2026, Haoyang Casting and Forging of Jinan will launch gradient hardness forged steel balls. Using the "double-frequency quenching" process, the surface hardness reaches 65HRC while the core has a toughness of 15J/cm², resulting in a 50% increase in wear resistance and a 40% improvement in mining grinding efficiency. This technology has obtained a national patent and has been supplied in batches to enterprises such as Zijin Mining and exported overseas. The company plans to invest 20 million yuan to expand the production line, with a target annual production capacity of 30,000 tons, aiming to occupy 30% of the domestic high-end market share.

The new generation of gradient hardness forged steel balls developed by Jinan Zhangqiu Huayi Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. have achieved a 40% increase in product lifespan through the "multi-stage forging + zone quenching" process, and their wear resistance exceeds the EU standards by 12%. After testing, the surface hardness is 60-64 HRC, the impact toughness is ≥ 15 J/cm², and the industrial test single consumption is 0.52 kg/t of raw ore, which is 32% lower than that of imported products. Currently, the annual production capacity is 30,000 tons, and it supplies leading mining enterprises at home and abroad. In the third quarter of 2025, the high-end sales volume will increase by 58%, helping the Zhangqiu forging industrial cluster's output value exceed 8 billion yuan.

Recently, Jinan Haoyang Casting and Forging Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Haoyang Casting and Forging") has launched a new generation of high-performance forged balls. Through the integrated process of "forging + isothermal quenching", the service life of the products has been increased by 35%, and the wear resistance has exceeded that of traditional cast balls by more than 15%. This has attracted widespread attention from the mining and construction industries. This series of forged balls covers a full range of specifications from 20mm to 150mm. After being tested by the National Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for Casting and Forging Machinery, the surface hardness reaches 58-62 HRC, the impact toughness is ≥ 12J/cm², and the comprehensive performance has reached the international advanced level.

The new generation of high-performance forged steel ball series products of Jinan Haoyang Forging & Casting Co., Ltd. have passed national-level certification. They adopt innovative processes and high-quality materials, with a hardness of HRC58-62, and the wear resistance has been improved by 30%, while the service life has been extended by 50%. The products are exported to over 30 countries, and the overseas sales have increased by 45% annually. With the full-process quality control and continuous research and development investment, it has become a technical benchmark in the global mining wear-resistant material field, helping the industry reduce costs, increase efficiency and achieve green transformation.

Jinan Haoyang Forging & Casting Co., Ltd. Produces Wear-resistant Steel Balls: An Innovative Force in the Field of Wear Resistance As a leading enterprise in the wear-resistant materials industry, Jinan Haoyang Forging & Casting Co., Ltd. has made its core product, forged steel balls, highly recognized in the market due to its outstanding performance. The company focuses on research and development, and its products are made of high-strength materials such as B2 and B3, featuring high hardness, resistance to abrasion, and anti-fracture properties. The diameters range from 110mm to 125mm, and are widely used in mining beneficiation, cement plants, and power plant ball mill equipment. The product has obtained ISO9001:2000 quality system certification and has successfully entered the international market. It has been steadily exported to the United States for a long time. Models such as 88% and 14% have received high praise from overseas customers. 3. The company is located in Zhangqiu District, Jinan. Relying on the convenient transportation network, it has achieved a full industrial chain layout and provides customized services to meet diverse needs. Adhering to the concept of "Honesty earns reputation, strength wins the market", Jinan Haoyang Casting and Forging is continuously providing efficient wear-resistant solutions for the global industry through the integration of industry, academia and research, demonstrating the strength of Chinese manufacturing.

Forged balls, as the core product of wear-resistant materials, are widely used in grinding equipment in fields such as mining, metallurgy, and building materials. Jinan Haoyang Casting and Forging Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in the field of forged steel balls for over a decade. By optimizing the "heating - forging - heat treatment" process chain, the hardness and wear resistance of the steel balls have been enhanced. The product lifespan is significantly longer than that of ordinary cast steel balls, and the products are exported to overseas markets such as the United States. The company takes advantage of the manufacturing cluster advantages in Zhangqiu District to form an "production + trade" integrated model, covering the entire industrial chain of castings, forgings, and metallurgical furnace materials. As a high-tech enterprise, its forged steel balls have formed competitiveness in fields such as mining machinery and automotive parts due to their wear resistance and stability. It also strengthens logistics efficiency through its transportation location advantages (adjacent to Jiqing Expressway and Jinan Yaoqiang Airport). In the future, the enterprise will continue to explore alloy composition optimization and green manufacturing technologies to drive the expansion of the global wear-resistant material market through technological innovation.
