This early 1900s photo shows an Inland Steel company worker with the pig iron casting machine. The company's business was reducing iron ore to steel. Its only steel mill was located in East Chicago, Indiana, on the Indiana Harbor and Ship Canal and a large landfill protruding out into Lake Michigan. To make pig iron, there was a long endless belt with steel buckets on it, each bucket being a mold for a 100-pound pig of iron. As we see here, the ladle car is brought to the casting house, the ladle dumped by electricity, and the molten iron runs through a trough into a moving bucket conveyor. As the buckets move upon a 200-foot incline, the molds are drenched in a flood of cold water. At the upper end, the pigs are dropped into a car, which is flooded with water, to keep it from catching on fire. Pig iron thus cooled is dumped onto a stock pile to be carried to the open hearth furnace when needed.
