Italian plantmaker Danieli has announced that it will upgrade the two-strand continuous slab caster of global steel giant ArcelorMittal’s Romania-based subsidiary ArcelorMittal Galati. With the upgrade of the slab caster, which was installed in 1978, ArcelorMittal Galati aims to improve product quality by reducing slab defects like sliver, flakes and spider cracks for coils and plates. The upgrade will be performed during a 21 day shutdown in September 2017.

After the revamping, the plant will produce 220-250-mm x 700-1900-mm slabs in low-carbon, peritectic, medium-carbon, micro alloyed, high-carbon and silicon steel grades.
