UK-based plantmaker Primetals Technologies has announced that it will modernize the bar rolling mill of Turkish steelmaker Cemtas Celik Makina Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S (Cemtas) located in Bursa.

Accordingly, the rolling mill will be equipped with new dividing and handling systems. The new hot dividing shear will allow the use of the longer 200 mm billets in production, the new abrasive disk saw is able to cut wider layers of bars and a new automatic bundling and packing system replaces a manually operated system. With these measures, existing systems can be used more efficiently and current productivity limitations can be overcome. The modernization is due to be finished in the fourth quarter of the current year.
