UK-based plantmaker Primetals Technologies has announced that it has commissioned a new blooming mill for Italy-based Acciaierie Venete S.p.A at its Camin steelworks. The production capacity is up to 110 metric tons per hour.
Primetals said that the new blooming mill at the Camin steelworks helps to improve the metallurgical properties of end products. As a result, additional processing steps such as forging can be dispensed with either in whole or in part.
Acciaierie Venete has several production facilities in Italy and produces rods and profiles made of carbon and high-grade steels. The company produces around 1.5 million mt of steel every year.
