FLEXIBLE ROLLING OF FLAT BAR STEEL

The multiline mill for the flexible rolling of flat steel cooling of a rolling line with flat rolling block, rake-type cooling bed and cutting zone for flat dimensions with large cross section, and a second rolling line with medium- and small-section mill in ''cassette'' design for flat dimensions with small cross section. Over 50% of the total bar steel and wire rod production of the Bohler Edelstahlgesellschaft BEG in Kapfenberg, Austria, are produced with this plant. Extremely small lot sizes of any flat dimension within the production range of the mill, from high and highest alloyed steel grades and superalloys, are economically produced with 1/3rd to 1/4th DIN tolerance by the plant. The availability of the plant amounts to 85%.
