Direct Rolling - Driving Indian Steel Re-rolling Forward
Direct Rolling is a revolutionary technology that promises to dramatically alter steel re-rolling in India. Introduced to the sector by a national project to remove barriers to energy efficiency in the steel re--rolling sector, the technology eliminates the need to re-heat billets in composite mills. This means that the Re-Heating Furnace - which consumes as much as 40% of the total energy consumption in a mill - is made redundant. An overview of the technology is given in this short film, which also discusses the enormous cost savings and GHG emission reductions enabled by Direct Rolling technology.
