Jinan Iron & Steel expands its plate production: Siemens puts 4.3 meter plate mill into operation

At the end of April, Siemens VAI Metals Technologies successfully started up the 4.3 meter plate mill for Jinan Iron & Steel (Group) Co., Ltd. The plant will enable the Chinese steelmaker to produce up to 1.8 million tonnes of plate every year at its Jigang Works, and thus increase its total annual capacity to over five million tonnes. Siemens handled the engineering work and supplied the mechanical equipment and automation solutions for the new mill.
