Danieli to Supply High-Speed Rebar Mill to Libyan Iron & Steel
01/06/2009 - Danieli Morgårdshammar will provide a new 800,000 tonnes/year high-speed rolling mill to Libyan Iron & Steel Co on a complete turnkey supply basis.
Libyan Iron & Steel Co (Lisco), Libya, recently awarded an order to Danieli Morgårdshammar for a new 800,000 tonnes/year high-speed rolling mill on a complete turnkey supply basis.
Lisco’s new high capacity mill, which will produce 8- to 40-mm diameter deformed bars, will feature a very high finishing speed for small-size bars, which will be delivered onto the cooling bed at up to 37 meters/second through a Double Twin-Channel system.
The plant layout will be arranged over a 16-stand continuous mill plus two 6-pass high-speed twist-free finishing blocks, fed by twin-strand slit-rolled stock coming from the upstream intermediate mill. The new mill will allow smaller bar sizes to be produced on two strands at very high speeds, fully exploiting the mill's capacity for the whole product range.
Two QTB (quenching and self-tempering) lines, located at the finishing blocks’ delivery side, will provide on-line water quenching and self-tempering of rebars.
Danieli Automation will supply electricals and fully integrated automation system, and Danieli Centro Combustion will provide a 150 tonnes/hour walking-hearth reheat furnace. The complete turnkey supply will include all auxiliary plants and systems, auxiliary equipments, cranes and transportation means, buildings and civil works.
Plant startup is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2010.
