Italian plantmaker Danieli has announced that it has signed a contract with Japanese steelmaker Tokyo Steel to supply a new caster to produce billets and blooms for structural steel grades.
The core of the new caster is a technology that can achieve outstanding performances in terms of casting speed and cast product quality. The new caster has further improved the cooling capacity and reduced cooling water requirements, while incorporating lighter copper components, resulting in significant savings in equipment costs. This new technology will allow Tokyo Steel to achieve the required productivity rate in any casting conditions and for any product type.
