Bar-Rebar Mill / Wire Rod Mill
Electrical and automation equipment and engineering for bar, rebar and wire rod mills.
- Bar/rebar, wire rod and section rolling systems
- Systems designed and quality-tested at our production facility
Competence
Electrical and automation systems for long-product rolling mills and meltshops — from power controls and PLC software to Level 2, for greenfield plants and revamps.
Processes
Steel processes we automate
Long products from the meltshop to the finishing line: billets are melted and cast, reheated, rolled into bar, rebar, wire rod and sections, then straightened, cut, stacked and bundled.
Reheating Furnace
Burner control and motion automation for pusher-type, walking beam and walking hearth furnaces.
- Pusher type · walking beam · walking hearth
- Burner systems
Section Mill
Electrical and automation systems for light-to-medium section mills and their finishing facilities.
- Reversing mill and mill train
- Cooling bed with turn-up and turn-over systems
- Straightener, cold saw, stacking and strapping machines
- Cranes
Steel Making
Automation and process control for EAF, LF, CCM, water treatment, material handling and fume treatment plants, aimed at consistent, repeatable and safe operation with lower energy, electrode and refractory consumption.
- Electrode regulation units and arc regulation
- Mould level control and CCM torch cutting systems
- Motors, MCCs, PLC control units, HMI and SCADA
- Cabling and network route engineering from the start of the investment

- LV AC single-motor drives and multidrives with DC bus; LV DC drives
- Soft starters and MCCs for fixed-speed drives
- AC/DC motor and gear motor basic and detailed design and supply
Low Voltage Distribution
Low-voltage distribution panels (LVDP) tailored to the loads, distribution transformer, cabling and network short-circuit capacity.
- Busbars and supports designed in 3D CAD for short-circuit withstand
- Built to IEC 61439-1:2020
Power System Consultancy & Supply
Technical consultancy and supply for medium-voltage projects up to 40 kV, from system design to long-term support.
- System design and equipment procurement: switchgear, transformers, control panels
- On-site installation, commissioning and long-term support
Automation Cabinets & Control Desks
Automation cabinets designed in EPLAN P8 and linked to the Siemens TIA environment.
- Automation and logic cabinets, control desks, pneumatic cabinets
- Individual orders or contract manufacturing to a functional description

Robotics
Robotic Section Packaging
Robotic stacking and packaging lines for section mills — from product-list feasibility to the commissioned line, built on our own KUKA–Siemens PLC interface. We work only in iron and steel.
- Magnetic grippers, nested stacking of bulb flats, multi-robot handling of long bars
- Profile stacking without hydraulic units or overhead traversing beams — low maintenance, lower energy use
- KUKA RoboTeam for synchronised multi-robot operation
