Hot charging trail for MS TMC rebars
The company undertook a trial run of the hot charging of mild steel billets to the TMT bar mill. The development holds significance as it drastically minimises reheating requirements, leading to significant savings in fuel consumption and reduction of scale loss. Moreover, it will help the company to substantially lower its carbon footprint.ย
The trial run successfully yielded Fe550D grade MS TMT rebars. According to the company, they are highly recognised in the infrastructure industry.ย
