Primetals gets a modernization order

Turkish steel producer Çelik Makina Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (Çemtaş) has awarded Primetals Technologies another order to modernize its bar rolling mill in Bursa. The rolling mill will be equipped with new dividing and handling systems. The new hot dividing shear allows the use of the longer 200 mm billets in production, the new abrasive disk saw is able to cut wider layers of bars and a new automatic bundling and packing system replaces a manually operated system.
With these measures, existing systems can be used more efficiently and current productivity limitations can be overcome. The modernization is due to be finished in the Q4 2017.
The new hot dividing shear for rounds and flats replaces an existing shear and has a higher cutting capacity. This will increase the final yield of the rolled products.
An automatic bundling and packing device for flats and rounds will be installed to replace the second manual packing device in Hall A of the plant.
