Muhaj Baghdad again selects Danieli long-product technologies.

A new contract with Danieli has been signed for the supply of a new, three-strand billet caster to be installed in the region of Babil (Babylon), Iraq.

The continuous casting machine will produce 500,000 tpy of rebar grades in a 130x130 mm section and feed in hot-charge mode the high-speed rebar mill also recently ordered from Danieli.

The new caster is characterized by a 1000-mm-long mould, multiple unbending points with 7- and 13-meter radius, and a four-zone water-cooling system.

Danieli Automation process control will ensure smooth operation of the new caster and rolling mill which will feature hot-charge operation at a rate of 70 tons per hour.

More than 50% of the casters in operation in the Middle East area have been supplied by Danieli.
