Hebei Puyang Steel issues FAC to SMS group for single-strand slab caster
Hebei Puyang Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. (Puyang Steel), China, has issued
to SMS group the Final Acceptance Certificate (FAC) for the
single-strand slab caster commissioned in 2015.
SMS group met the customer’s high expectations by cooperating extremely
successfully with Puyang Steel and achieving fast commissioning and a
steep run-up curve of the plant.
Jointly with Puyang Steel and building on its profound experience and
proficiency, SMS group developed a tailor-made and fully integrated
concept that fits perfectly into the existing structural situation of
the works. The new caster was integrated into the existing bay, using
the available crane systems.
With the new continuous caster supplied by SMS group, Puyang Steel has
expanded its range of slabs produced, above all by high-quality grades,
such as peritectic microalloyed and high-strength steels, high-carbon
and boron-alloy grades, premium steels and pipeline grades.
