The AGW 200 E axial closed-die rolling machine will be used at a forging shop in the region around Volga and Don. It will produce near-net-shape blanks, such as welding flanges, spur gears for gearbox construction, and axially splined discs. The materials to be rolled are predominantly general structural steels, but one acid-resistant steel material—from which the welding flanges are made—will also be formed, in addition to aluminum alloys.
 
Delivery of the AGW is scheduled for July 2008.
