Danieli Lands U.S. Rail Mill Contract
05/28/2019 - Danieli has been chosen to build EVRAZ North America’s planned rail rolling mill for its Pueblo, Colo., facility.
In a statement, Danieli said the plant will be designed to produce 670,000 tons annually in lengths of up to 100 m.
“It will be the most modern rail rolling mill in North America,” Danieli said.
The new mill’s product range will include flat-bottom rails and thick-web rails up to 88 kg/m for heavy-haul and high-speed railways and for other applications.
Danieli said the mill will feature flexible rolling processes both in the breakdown and reversing mills, achieving very low roll consumption and precise geometrical tolerances.
Danieli Automation will provide the control system.
