Global steelmaker Tata Steel has announced that its Netherlands-based subsidiary Service Center Maastricht will commission a large heavy gauge decoiler by the end of the current year which will serve the growing markets in Europe for high strength steels, especially in the lifting and excavating industry.
The new decoiler will be able to decoil and cut-to-length hot rolled coil up to 25 mm thick, 2,600 mm wide and in premium grades. Tata Steel stated that the volumes of throughput handled at Maastricht will remain much the same as several older decoilers will be dismantled.
