Morgan Construction Company has received a contract to modernize the Byelorussian Steel Works (BMZ) mill in Zhlobin, Republic of Belarus.

According to John Foley, General Manager, Rolling Mill Sales, "This is a multi-phase contract that will include new equipment designed to improve the metallurgical properties of BMZ's finished product, while increasing the mill's production capacity.

As part of the contract's first phase, Morgan will install a new water cooling system, temperature control system, modifications to the company's existing Stelmor coil cooling conveyor, and a new compactor and ring distributor.

This first phase of the upgrade is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2001.

Foley noted, "This first phase of the contract, when completed, will enable BMZ to provide rod with increased tensile strength and more consistent mechanical properties to the automotive and construction industries.

The addition of the ring distributor and coil compactor will also allow BMZ to supply more dense coils with significant wire drawing benefits." He added that Voest Alpine Industrieanlagenbau (VAI), of Linz, Austria is coordinating this phase, as well as a second one that will start at the conclusion of the first phases.

In addition, VAI will provide plant fluid system modifications, as well as automation interface and installation engineering for the project." Morgan Construction Company is a designer and producer of high-quality rolling mill products and services for the metal industry worldwide.
