Technology Advantages

Our core competitive is technology innovation. We now own 9 PatentedTechnologies as well as 2 Control Software Copyrights. For past decade, we have always been listening carefully to the needs and demands of our customers; following the current development trends of the Chinese and abroad Steel Industry; putting constantly new technologies or new machine types into the market. In 2001 we has successfully commissioned a Super Large Radius (16 m) Alloyed Steel Bloom CCM (3strands) (Casting size: 350mm×470mm) for Hubei Daye Special Steel Co.,Ltd. It was considered a milestone project in the Chinese Continuous CastingHistory. In 2002, we self-developed Soft Reduction Technology has filled the void in this field. In 2007 another successful Start Up of 4 strands near net-shape beam blank CCM in Shanxi Changzhi Iron & Steel Co,Ltd.has consolidated our leading technological position in the Market.
