Following two previous Contracts awarded to MINO at the beginning of 2016 for the supply of two strip processing lines, Profilglass has now awarded MINO with a further Contract!

The new Six-high Mill for Profilglass will be capable of rolling aluminium alloy strip having a maximum width of 2350 mm, down to a minimum gauge of 0.2 mm, and will be one of the biggest cold rolling mills for aluminium in Europe. The new Six-high Mill is of state-of-the-art design and includes entry side trimmer & scrap chopper, EDT pass capabilities, off-line entry coil preparation system, off-line exit coil inspection system, automatic spool transfer device, most advanced AGC/AFC controls and powerful medium voltage AC main drives . The Mill stand is equipped with MINO’s long stroke shifting system for the intermediate rolls, allowing a huge range of different products to be rolled successfully, coping with a big variation in product strip width and diverse mechanical characteristics of the different alloys being rolled.
