A new finishing end will be added to ArcelorMittal Long Products existing rolling mill in Longueuil, Quebec, Canada, courtesy of Danieli Automation. ArcelorMittal, a leading steel manufacturer, including stainless steel alloys, has recently chosen Danieli technologies to widen its product mix and quality.
The new equipment consists of a water forced cooling system and lining-up rollers to be implemented in the existing cooling bed; cooling bed exit table with automatic layer prep system; 10-roll multi-strand straightener; 1100 sht cold shear; and an 80 automatic single-head magnetic stacker to eliminate short bars, maximize plant efficiency, material yield and final product quality. The equipment will support an increase in the mills production capacity and will make new value-added products available to customers.
Danieli Automation will supply electric motors and automation systems to grant the optimal plant management. The plant start-up is expected in March 2017.
