The two-strand continuous slab caster is designed for a production capacity of 2 million metric t/a. It has a machine radius of 9.5 m and a metallurgical length of 35.1 m. It casts slabs with a thickness of 230 mm in widths ranging from 800 to 1,600 mm. The maximum casting speed is 1.8 m/min. The range of products covers ultra-low carbon and low carbon steels, deep drawn, structural peritectic alloyed steels, and pipe grades.
Primetals is responsible for the detail engineering of the casting platform and the strand- guiding system, the basic and detail engineering of the maintenance area, as well as the engineering of the automation and the software for the new continuous slab caster. The scope of supply includes the complete electrical installations and automation, as well as core components, such as mold and mold oscillator, bender and Smart Segments for the strand-guide system.
