Acciaierie di Calvisano, belonging to the Feralpi Group of Italy, commissioned Siemens Metals Technologies with the modernization of the billet caster in the Calvisano works in Italy. The aim of the project is to further improve the internal and surface quality of the billets and to be able to cast round (in addition to square) billets. The caster will be equipped with a new machine head, including molds and additional technology packages, like electromagnetic stirrer. The strand guide, secondary cooling and cooling bed will also be optimized. The revamped casting plant is scheduled to go into operation at the beginning of 2013.
