Background

Wuyang Iron and Steel Company is located adjacent to Wugang Zhongjia Steel Co., Ltd. which serves as an essential source of steelmaking raw materials for Wuyang Iron and Steel Company.[1]

The facility has announced a thick slab continuous casting machine project in July 2024, which involves constructing a 460x2500mm straight-arc continuous casting machine. Utilizing continuous casting technology, the project will convert molten steel produced by existing electric arc furnaces into continuously cast slabs without increasing the company’s existing casting capacity of 1 million tons per year.[2]
