Posco confirms its preference for Danieli Rotelec electromagnetic stirring technology

Posco has placed an order with Danieli Rotelec for a Multi-Mode Electro Magnetic Stirrer (MM®-EMS) to be installed on the slab caster #1 of steel plant #2, at Gwangyang Works, Korea.

In the same steel plant #2, slab-casting machine #3 –which is identical to casting machine #1– operates with a Danieli Rotelec Multi-Mode Electro Magnetic Stirrer (MM®-EMS).

Danieli Rotelec will install a new MM®-EMS on slab caster #1, replacing the existing mould technology from another supplier to produce the same high-quality slabs.

The slab caster subject to upgrade is a two-strand caster producing 800-1600-mm-wide, 250-mm-thick slabs, in ultra-low, low, medium and high carbon grades.

Slab caster #1 will be the 13th caster at Posco to operate with Danieli Rotelec MM®-EMS technology.
