NLMK improved the quality of the plates of Belgian plate mill

The Russian NLMK Group and investment fund Wallonia Entreprendre, owners of the Belgian plate mill NLMK Clabecq, upgraded the mill to improve the quality of the plates.

NLMK improved the quality of the plates of Belgian plate mill

In order to improve plate profiles and mill-flatness performance, NLMK contracted Danieli to carry out the project at its Ittre plate mill. At the 750,000 tpy plate unit, Danieli installed new loopers for stands 1 and 4, as well as hydraulic actuators for stands 3 and 4's gap control and an entirely new hydraulic bending system. The mill's automation system was also upgraded by the contractor. In order to secure a leading position in the thin-gauge steel market and provide plates with the best surface, flatness, and dimensional tolerance, NLMK Clabecq placed an upgrade order with Danieli.

NLMK Clabecq decided to concentrate on the thin-gauge value-added plate market back in 2019. It is currently producing thin-wide plate grades as well as its QUARD and QUEND products.
