New Brazilian Rod Mill Supplied by Morgan Construction
Morgan Construction Company has won the contract to supply a single strand wire rod mill for Votorantim Metais in Resende, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The project design allows for future expansion to two strands for rod production of up to one million tonnes per year. The mill will roll plain rod from 5.5mm to 24mm and HYQST rebar from 6.35mm to 16mm. Rolling speed for the 5.5mm rod will be guaranteed at 105 meters per second. Initial furnace capacity should produce 120 tonnes per hour, rising to 180 tonnes per hour when the second strand is built.
