Hoa Phat celebrated 3 Mton HRC produced at Dung Quat steel complex

Vietnam's leading steelmaker, Hoa Phat Group, celebrated its first 3 million tons cumulative hot-rolled coil production reached on December 2, since the line was commissioned.

The QSP thin-slab casting rolling line supplied by Danieli allows flexible production of quality -including API- and commercial grades, with excellent geometrical and mechanical strip properties of strip thicknesses ranging from 1.5 to 12.0 mm, and widths from 900 to 1,500 mm.

The two vertical-curved casters produce 70- to 85-mm-thick slabs after dynamic soft reduction, covering the whole product mix with a single mould.

A Danieli Centro Combustion twin-strand shuttle furnace connects the casters to the 2+4 hot-strip mill, with separation of high-reduction and finishing units allowing dual step rolling.

The QSP control system is based on the Danieli Automation HI-PAC industrial platform.
