Primetals Technologies to supply two continuous slab casters and a hot rolling mill to the JSW Steel Dolvi plant

Primetals Technologies has won an order from JSW Steel Ltd., an Indian steel producer, to supply two

continuous slab casters to its Dolvi plant in Maharashtra. Together, the two two-strand casters will have

an initial annual capacity of around 4.5 million metric tons of slabs with future capacity potential for 6

million metric tons. The casters are scheduled to come on stream in the middle of 2019. A number of

technology packages will ensure that the slabs have high internal and surface quality. The order to

supply a hot rolling mill to the Dolvi site has also been received by Primetals Technologies. The hot

rolling mill has an annual capacity of 5 million metric tons per year. JSW Steel already operates three

continuous casting plants from Primetals Technologies at its steel works in Toranagallu, Karnataka.
