POMINI Long Rolling Mills completed the modernization project at Celsa Armeringsstål, located at Mo I Rana in Norway. The existing rolling mill has been in operation since the 1980s, it was designed and supplied by Pomini SpA, predecessor of POMINI Long Rolling Mills.

The project mainly consisted in the supply of four Red Ring Series 5 finishing stands.

The new stands reuse the existing rolls and related change devices in the workshop, while the new rest bars fit the existing rolling guides. The design of Red Ring Serie 5 offers reduced change times as well as extended lifetimes of the wear components, which is beneficial to both operation and maintenance activities. Other supplied equipment is the retrofit of the stand lubrication system to allow quick connection/disconnection during stand change operations, the encoder systems for gap adjustment, the workshop equipment for stand preparation and roll change. Said equipment is compatible with both new and other existing stands.

The supply also included the documentation required by the Machinery Directive of the European Union, engineering services for other equipment, advisory services to erection and commissioning, and training services.
