The heart of the machinery in it is a long-line plant, which gives the Mannheim-based company even more processing flexibility and flexibility.  The new plant enables the production of slit strip and has been in operation since mid-November last year. It is designed for up to 1,650 millimeters wide and up to five millimeters thick steel strip. With a maximum speed of 400 meters per minute, coils can be split in up to 39 strips.

The plant has an annual production capacity of 20,000 tonnes.
