DREVER to Supply Radiant Tube Furnace
SMS Siemag received an order from China’s Bengang Steel Plates Co. Ltd.
for the supply of a continuous hot-dip galvanizing line. The line will
feature a radiant tube furnace from DREVER International, which is a
company of the SMS group. The annealing furnace can handle high
production capacities and an extensive mix of products. It features a
pre-oxidation facility for selective surface oxidation and later
reduction of the surfaces of high-manganese or high-silicon steels in
order to increase the wettability of these grades. With this investment,
Bengang hopes to advance into the market for high-quality hot-dip
galvanized automotive grades for unexposed and exposed vehicle parts.
