Morgan Construction Company is commissioning its first bar reducing/sising (BRSM) mill installed in China.

The new mill, which was designed and built by Morgan, was installed late last year at Echeng Iron and Steel Co in Echeng, Hubei Province, of the People's Republic of China.

According to Project Manager Fan Li: "The new mill produced more than 500 tons of 25, 28 and 32mm bar during the first three days of startup at rolling temperature 870C".

In addition, the mill achieved the guaranteed tolerance of 0.1mm ovality for both 25 and 28mm products during the same period.

The new mill, which will produce specialty steel products for rounds, rebar and flats, is designed to provide high-precision tolerance and thermo-mechanically rolled products.

"The Bar RSM", he added, "will also provide single family rolling for enhanced rolling schedule flexibility, high-output efficiency, and high quality bar".

Morgan has also provided Echeng with a controlled cooling line with the Morgan Temperature Control System (METCS) and full Bar RSM control system.

The mill, which was designed at the company's Worcester headquarters, was manufactured at Morgan's USA and Chinese manufacturing divisions.
