The six-high cold rolling mill can process aluminium strips with a maximum width of 2,350 mm. The smallest final thickness of the finished strips is 0.15 mm. The plant was designed for a capacity of about 120,000 t/a.
BaoWu Aluminium can roll a wide range of aluminium grades and alloys on the plant. Strip quality, plant productivity and the environmental compatibility of plant operation are ensured by the technologies installed by SMS group.
The quality-determining rolling technologies include CVC®plus in combination with positive and negative work and intermediate roll bending as well as inductive roll barrel heating. They enable a consistently high strip quality across the entire strip width for maximum yield. SMS supplied the complete mechanical, hydraulic and fluid power equipment including a Multi Plate® filter of size MPF3-16, which supports the sustainable use of the rolling oil.
