: Metals Technologies, a Division of the Siemens Group Industrial Solutions and Services (I&S), has received an order from Jindal Stainless Ltd., New Delhi, India, for a new hot-strip mill. The order includes the plant layout, the mechanical equipment, the drives as well as the entire basic and process automation. Production start is scheduled for 2009. Jindal Stainless Ltd., founded in 1970 is the leading stainless steel producer in India and operates a stainless steel plant in Hisar, Haryana near New Delhi. In the course of an expansion and investment program, Jindal Stainless decided to build a new 1.800 mm wide hot strip mill to be located in Kalinganagar Durubi, Orissa. After the first project phase, the mill will be able to produce 1.6 mtpy of austenitic and ferritic stainless steel strips including a minor quantity of plates. In a later project phase the plant can be upgraded to a production capacity of 3.2 mtpy by installing a second reheating furnace, a seventh mill stand and a second down coiler. For the first stage the scope for Siemens comprises a primary descaler, a reversing roughing stand with attached edger, a coilbox, a crop shear and a secondary descaler, a 6 stand finishing mill, a laminar cooling section and one down coiler and a plate cutting and stacking facility. The mill will be equipped with latest technological equipment such as a fully hydraulic edger, long-stroke HAGC in all mill stands, L-block bending and shifting devices in conjunction with the SmartCrown system for superior profile- and flatness control, laminar cooling edge masking units, Siemens’ new laminar cooling control model as well as a pinch roll polisher. Non salient pole main motors will be manufactured by the Siemens Dynamowerk in Berlin and will be powered through latest multi level converter technology Sinamics SM150. Low-voltage drives and a Motor Control Center (MCC) will be supplied by Siemens Ltd. India. All of the components and systems to be used are part of the Siroll HM solution for hot-rolling mills. Siemens will also provide customer training as well as supervision of installation and commissioning including fine adjustment of the technological models and control systems. Main reasons for the contract award were Siemens' ability to come up with a fully integrated solution and the positive experiences from previous projects.
