GE Selected by BUMA to supply Electrical Equipment for thyssenkrupp Steel hot rolling mill
GE Power Conversion has been selected by the Austrian mechanical supplier BUMA engineering & Anlagenbau GmbH (BUMA) for the installation of electrical equipment for a new descaling spray at thyssenkrupp Steel Europe’s hot rolling mill WBW2 in Duisburg, Germany.
The effective removal of scale during the hot rolling of steel is essential for high material quality. In the hydro-mechanical descaling, the scale layer, formed in the hot rolling process, is removed with a high-pressure water jet. The intensity (impact) of this process is an important indicator for the descaling performance, ensuring that the required surface quality is achieved using as little water as possible to keep the temperature loss as low as possible. BUMA is developing and installing a new descaling... ... More: Official Press Release GE
