Tenova Italimpianti recently received a contract for a new walking beam furnace (WBF) of 340 t/h for Jindal United Steel Limited (JUSL) in Jajpur, Odisha, India.
Tenova Italimpianti is a leading technologies and equipment supplier for the world of industrial furnaces. Jindal United Steel Limited is a company specialized in hot rolling and cold rolling of a wide set of stainless steels.
The furnace has been designed to charge the stainless-steel product (grade series 200, 300, and 400) as well as the carbon and low carbon steel, austenitic, and ferrite families, in order to comply with JUSL’s various production needs.
This furnace achieves optimum thermal quality of products, with maximum efficiency, high performances in all running conditions, and ease of maintenance. Moreover, it can be fired with several gases, allowing the furnace to be ready for future feeding.
The installed combustion system is designed in order to optimize performances (flame characteristics, efficiency and pollutant emissions) in function of the fuel and burner location (frontal, lateral, or radiant application). The multi-level automation control system optimizes heating practices, regulating fuel consumption and scale production.
“I am particularly proud for this order because it confirms how Tenova can always comply with the request of the client,” said Alberto Nicolini, sales and marketing manager at Tenova Italimpianti and Strip Processing. “We designed a very flexible WBF and the digital and high technological features of this equipment are granting also the easiness and the reliability of maintenance and operation.”
