Continued excellence for cold rolling mills

Shagang, one of the biggest private steelmakers in China, ordered a second DMS 20Hi EcoMill cold rolling mill to produce electrical steel. The reoccurring investments are driven by the continued expansion of the electric vehicle market in China, where local producers are looking to maintain a strong market share.

High-quality performance

The new mill is set to produce 80,000 tonnes of high-grade NGO electrical steel per year. It will enable the strip to be rolled down to 0.1 mm over the full width of 1,350 mm, while maintaining surface quality and flatness. These steel grades are mainly dedicated to high-performance electrical motors that require high-quality electrical steel. This will be the second cold rolling mill Fives supplied to Shagang in the last four years.

"Shagang is a key player in the development of electrical steel in China. We are proud to be recognized as a strong partner with top-tier equipment that meet the company’s expectations in terms of demanding delivery schedules and consistent quality and performance of our equipment,” says Alexis Duchene, Sales & Marketing Director at Fives DMS, a subsidiary specializing in mechanical equipment and cold rolling mills.

Best available technology

DMS 20Hi EcoMill features the latest developments which include increased rolling speed and strip tension, advanced roll gap lubrication for higher product quality, enhanced fume extraction, better strip wiping efficiency and an innovative concept for flatness actuators.
