The new CRM, designed for an annual capacity of 250,000 tons at a speed of 1400 mpm, comes with proven roll shifting technology and provides positive and negative work roll bending and flatness measurement on the entry and on the exit side, allowing the client to produce the desired strip qualities in widths ranging from 700 to 1,600 millimeters and minimum final gauges down to 0.15 millimeters.
Additionally, the new robust and operator-friendly mill design is to allow for fast work roll changes and increased productivity, while its multi-zone cooling system, as well as the automatic hydraulic strip gauge & flatness control (AGC & AFC) system will ensure high flexibility and quality.
The highly versatile Color Coating Line is to produce coils with a multitude of paint coatings at a process speed of 150mpm, for coils ranging from width of 700 to 1450mm and thicknesses of 0.12 to 1mm.
John Cockerill is proud of its Indian teams for having successfully finalized this important project and for having once again showcased our profound ability to put the needs of our clients at the center of our business strategy.
