14 | NEWS ROUND-UP BRAZIL Gerdau Pindamonhangaba upgrades rolling mill Danieli Service do Brasil has upgraded the No. 3 rolling mill at Gerdau Pindamonhangaba, São Paulo, to enable the production of spring steel flat bars. The rolling mill, recently supplied by Danieli, was initially designed for the production of specialty steel round bars. It has now been upgraded for the production of spring steel flat bars in addition to round bars. The project consisted of advisory technical services, expertise sharing, and equipment supply, including new cooling bed eccentric shafts and pneumatic apron flaps. On-site activities, such as dismantling, mounting, cold and hot commissioning, were also part of the supply. The very first flat bars – produced ahead of schedule – already featured optimal surface quality and metallurgical properties. The project will continue with a second phase aiming to increase the dimensional range. • Danieli MEXICO Ternium Pesqueria implements fully automated slab handling Danieli is to supply an inventory management system and fully automatic handling equipment to Ternium for its greenfield hot-strip mill in Pesqueria. The purpose of this investment is to optimize incoming slab flow by applying artificial intelligence for the slab yard management system, in direct connection and communication with the downstream process of the hot-strip mill. The handling system – including ten electric overhead travelling cranes, seven transfer cars and two destackers – will distribute and transfer slabs through the intermediate and final storage areas. The slab yard management system calculates the tasks for all equipment according to the forecast production mix submitted by the plant MES, optimizing the movements and the relocation of each slab. The processes are adapted in real-time to the actual needs determined by the product mix and the equipment status. Slabs are moved by autonomous transfer cars from the arrival bays to the reheating-furnace charging bays, where they are stored according to the reheating-furnace charging sequence in order to optimize the crane and loading cycles and increase the flexibility in case of a change in the production schedule. Properly sequenced slabs are stacked below two destackers, which continuously load slabs on a 50-m-long roller table, and feed them directly into the hot-strip mill furnace, according to the production mix and required schedule. Overhead travelling cranes are central elements of the slab handling system.

Danieli Centro Tube has received the final acceptance for the 5½” FQM seamless pipe mill at Benteler Steel’s pipe plant in Shreveport, LA. The plant is now in full production after the critical period of low oil prices, and a sluggish tube and pipe market. • Danieli STEEL + TECHNOLOGY 1 (2019) No. 4
