Revamp with just<br />
minor production losses<br />
To modernize the long-product mill, the<br />
patented HSD ® High-Speed Delivery system<br />
was installed during the scheduled<br />
annual maintenance shutdown so that revamping<br />
did not cause any major production<br />
losses. Parallel to the installation of<br />
the HSD ® system, the rolling mill was<br />
modernized and all measures for dismantling<br />
the old machines and ancillary facilities<br />
were carried out.<br />
FAC issued after<br />
just 10 months<br />
In spite of the tense delivery situation<br />
worldwide for plant components, <strong>SMS</strong><br />
<strong>Meer</strong> succeeded to supply, erect and commission<br />
the complete facility on schedule,<br />
just six months after contract signing in<br />
January 2007. In November 2007, around<br />
10 months after the signing of the contract,<br />
Hellenic Halyvourgia officially accepted<br />
the mill and issued the FAC.<br />
HSD ® system.<br />
