Danieli is also constructing a new 625,000 tonne per year steelmaking plant for Sonasid at Jorf Lasfar. The new state-of-the-art minimill, scheduled to be in operation by mid-2005, will feed the bar and section mill. The plant will feature Danieli’s latest steelmaking and rolling technologies, as well as the latest EWR line addition. |
Sonasid will be the first in the African continent to operate endless rolling through automatic continuous on-line welding of billets at delivery side of the reheat furnace, for uninterrupted production of long products.
The EWR process benefits productivity, material yield and plant efficiency, reducing production costs and granting homogeneous material quality throughout the endlessly rolled stock.
The mill, supplied by Danieli, has been in operation since July 2002. Startup of the new unit is scheduled for Spring 2005. Sonasid's EWR line will be the twelfth supplied by Danieli since 1997.
