Steel Milling Equipment Upgrade Steel milling refers to the process of manufacturing steel. This may involve an integrated steel work that requires performing all steps of steel making from iron ore smelting to rolled product, but may also refer to plants that specialize in manufacturing steel semi-finished casting products such as billets, slabs, blooms, ingots etc., from molten pig iron or from scrap. A steel mill equipment has a number of moving parts that undergoes a lot of stress related to the processing conditions of steel milling . Steel milling may involve conversion of pig iron to liquid steel (steel making), conversion of ore to liquid iron (iron making), solidification of liquid steel (casting). These processes utilize raw materials including ore, limestone and coal, all charged into a furnace blast, and hence are subjected to very high temperature. As a result of this harsh conditions of steel milling, the equipment are exposed to a number of wears and tears th

Entry Trough  Custom Equipment At the end of October, GMB Heavy Industries successfully completed a five-day outage at a bar mill in the United States. The mill was designed with a pneumatically activated separating ledge in the entry trough.
