THE NEW ROLLING MILL The Smart Beam manufacturing (SBM) is the new rolling mill that will allow to verticalize the production of the plant in San Zeno Naviglio, Brescia. THE NEW ROLLING MILL Italian steel industry heads toward the future. The new rolling mill will be integrated with the still mill, through innovative and sustainable technologies. The goal is to realize it by the end of 2022 thanks to the experience of the Duferco technicians and to the strong collaboration with SMS Group, technology partner and supplier for the project. An ambitious project looking to the future. A strong investment that confirms the attitude of Duferco Group to innovation. Integrated with San Zeno Naviglio steel mill, the new SBM rolling mill (Smart Beam Manufacturing) will endow Duferco Travi e Profilati of an extremely efficient system at the heart of the Italian and European steel market, allowing to verticalize the steel production. The plant will have a total rolling capacity of 1.5 million tons of long products. Technology The project will be realized with the most innovative and modern technologies available. It will be fully interconnected with other plant machinery and involves the most advanced technological tools, developed by the company’s teams in collaboration with Universities and Research Institutes, as already done for other projects in the plant Circular Economy The new SBM rolling mill for the steel beam production has been conceived as a system integrated with the steel mill and is the perfect example of circular economy. It is a sustainable model, based on the reuse of resources: from the recycling of ferrous scrap, which is the main raw material used in production, to its transformation in a semi-product and the further rolling to obtain finished product for the construction field. Environmental Impact The plant will have the lowest possible environmental impact, thanks to the use of the best available technologies and energy-saving systems. Moreover, it will be powered by energy from renewable sources as a result of a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The new plant has been conceived and projected to be ready to face the challenges of consumption reduction and environmental sustainability. For example, the reheating furnace supplied by Forni Industriali Bendotti, will be endowed with state of art burners ready to be powered also by hydrogen.
