Metallurgical engineer [3] |
- The history of Metso's Mining and Construction Technology business begins in Brazil in 1919, with Electro Aço Paulista - the first electric arc furnace steel foundry in Brazil. The feat was performed by the Swedish metallurgical engineer Eric Tysklind in a shed in Mooca, a traditional neighborhood in São Paulo and, in the first year of operation, the company reached the production of 600 t/year of steel.
In 1940, production increased to 200 t/month and the company, now called Fábrica de Aço Paulista (Faço), specialized in the production of wear and impact resistant alloy steels. One year earlier, an important milestone occurred: the company manufactured the first Brazilian crusher based on a Swedish design, a jaw crusher. From then on, it created a complete line of crushers, in addition to mills, screens and feeders, and reached the 60's as a major equipment manufacturer.
