Reheating Furnace
Slabs transferred from the continuous casting mill and slabbing mill enter the rolling process after they are fully heated in the reheating furnace. A vertical scale breaker (VSB) eliminates the thick scale formed on the slab surface during hot rolling.


Roughing Mill
In this stage, slabs with surface scale already removed are made into rolling material with appropriate shape, thickness, and width. The edger at the entry and exit of the mill rolls the slabs in crosswise direction using the automatic width control (AWC) system.


Finishing Mill
Finishing mill adjusts the slab thickness and width to specification. It also rolls the slabs at a suitable finishing temperature so that smooth surface and proper shape can be attained. The cutting-edge work roll shift, pair cross mill, and on-line rolling grinder (ORG) control the crown, improving both productivity and quality.


Run-Out Table & Coiler
After the finishing mill, the strip passes through the run-out table where it is then coiled. While passing through the table, the strip is sprayed with water to cool it down to a suitable coiling temperature.


Recoiling Line
Inspections for surface defects, shape, and size specification are conducted during this stage to enhance product shape, mechanical properties, and surface roughness.
