Italyโs Danieli has received an order from Russian steelmaker AO Severstal for a new rolling mill for special steels to be installed at its plant in Cerepovec.
A press release said the new plant will produce 5.5 to 32-mm wire rod and coiled bars for engineering and automotive industries, and 8 to 16-mm quenched rebar for construction purposes. Danieli will provide all the technological equipment, automation and advisory services. A Danieli Centro Combustion walking beam reheating furnace will bring to rolling temperature 12-m-long, 150-mm square-billets, at a pace of 170 tph. A single-strand high-speed roughing mill made of horizontal and vertical housingless stands will feed two independent wire rod lines and a garret coiler to produce the bigger diameters. Startup is planned for by the end of 2022.
