How It's Made: Metal Rods (From 10,000 POUNDS of Molten Metal!)

Описание: Every hour, over a thousand tons of copper are smelted to become a simple metal rod – the foundation of civilization. ⚙️ But behind this humble form lies an explosion of temperatures, fire, and micron-level precision.

Here’s what hidden factory secrets & fiery processes we uncover: 👇
The journey from raw copper, zinc, and tin into *powerful brass and bronze alloys*.
Hellish temperatures*: melting metal in furnaces at over *1910°F 🔥 – hotter than lava!
The *dramatic casting process*, where a bright yellow stream of molten alloy is poured into molds.
Massive rolling mills that stretch and form the hot metal into long, precise rods.
*Rigorous quality control*, including tensile and bending tests, to ensure ultimate strength 💪.

Get ready to see how the heart of technology is created from a river of fire!
