Bringing Key Advantages Together: The Nexus Concept

In a market driven by continuously increasing production requirements with increasingly specialized steel grades, higher quality, and the clear need to reduce energy consumption and lower the carbon footprint; there is an immediate demand for a new plant concept that combines the advantages of the conventional hot strip mill and CSP® technology. The plant concept that meets these requirements is CSP® Nexus. High casting throughput of medium-thick slabs, together with a two-stage direct rolling process via independent roughing and finishing mills, brings the advantages of both worlds together.
