Investment projects implemented at EVRAZ Regina in 2017 made it possible to:
- gain capabilities to manufacture new products with increasing demand
- improve product quality (lower impurities, higher weld quality, etc)
- significantly reduce production costs across the entire value chain
How we plan to supply new products at a lower cost
New line
- the new line for internal and external pipe coating replaces third-party suppliers
- addressed the lack of inner-diameter coating capabilities
New equipment
Improves steel quality and reduces cost
New equipment
- the new mill is capable to produce a pipe with thickness of up to 1 inch
- the mill meets new market standards on a thicker-wall pipe
- the two-step welding process has a significant advantage in the yield and labour intensity
Significant modifications
- larger passes and reductions improve
- internal quality of steel high cooling rate
- capability to coil up to 1-inch thick at full width
Significant modifications
Width adjustment has been added to the caster which allows to increase yield and machine availability
