58 BUSINESS AREAS strip. The line will have an annual production capacity of approximately 440,000 tons. Equipment delivery is scheduled for the end of 2005 and production of the first strip is planned for the summer of 2006. Andritz also received a large follow-up order from Lianzhong Stainless Steel, a member of Taiwanese Yieh Group, for the extension of the new stainless steel mill in Guangzhou, China. In 2003, Andritz had received an order to build the world’s largest stainless steel hot strip annealing and pickling line for the same customer and that project is currently underway. The recent order relates to a stainless steel cold strip annealing and pickling line with a capacity of approximately 250,000 t/y. Delivery is scheduled for August 2005, with production of the first strip expected in July 2006. In order to regenerate the waste mixed acids of these lines, the customer additionally ordered a Pyromars plant, which will recover nitric acid and fluoric acid. For the automotive plant joint venture of Mazda in China on the island of Hainan, Andritz received the first cut-to-length line which will be implemented together with Jier Company, a Chinese press manufacturer. JISCO, a steel company in the northwestern Chinese province Gansu, signed a contract with Andritz for the supply of a complete stainless steel strip manufacturing plant, consisting of several rolling mills, two pickling and annealing lines, and several slitting, cutting and processing lines. The contract was split up in an engineering part which came into force in December. The supply contract for the equipment will probably follow in 2005, after receiving all necessary approvals from the Chinese authorities. ANDRITZ 2004 ROLLING MILLS AND STRIP PROCESSING LINES Research and Development In 2004, R&D activities focused on product improvements to further strengthen the competitive advantage of processes offered to customers. The mixed acid recovery system has been optimized to increase the nitric-acid recovery rate, as well as the water balance between stainless steel pickling lines and acid recovery plants. A previously started project on alternative corrosion-resistant coatings has been continued, with special focus on zinc/chromium- and zinc/magnesium-coatings to reduce the zinc-layer thickness for improved laser weldability in the automotive industry. Implementation of the IDEAS simulation software was successfully started by creating a static mass balance model of the acid recovery plant. The filter systems for 20-high rolling mills have been further improved and are now offered as standardized product. The roll and strip cooling systems of 4-high and 6-high rolling mills have been optimized for improved flatness of the produced strip. New advanced coater technology has been successfully installed and commissioned for a line of the Austrian steel producer voestalpine. With this technology, Andritz once again underscores its leading position in high-precision color coating.
