Italian plantmaker Danieli has announced that it will supply a new two-strand round bloom caster for the production of high alloy grades of large sections to a special steel producer in China’s Shandong Province. 
 
The new caster will have two strands and a nominal radius of 16.5 meters and this will allow it to cast quality low and medium carbon steel sections with diameters of 600 mm, 700 mm and 800 mm. The designed annual productivity of this caster allows for an output of over 450,000 mt. The caster will be designed for future installation of a strand stirrer to take into account the trend of the ever-more demanding local and global markets. Lastly, the progressive unbending through nine pinching modules will ensure optimal product shape while avoiding any surface or central cracks.
