Belgium-based plantmaker CMI Industry has announced that it has received an order from Bangladesh-based steel producer PHP Integrated Steel Mills Ltd for the supply of a new push pull pickling line (PPL), a fully automated 6-Hi cold rolling mill, a state-of-the-art continuous galvanizing line (CGL), as well as two finishing lines for its new cold rolling mill complex in Feni, Bangladesh, which is expected to go into operation in mid-2019.

According to CMI, the new high-capacity push pull pickling line will have an annual production capacity of 500,000 mt of steel strip with a width of 1,670 mm and thickness ranging from 1.6 mm to 4 mm. The single stand 6-Hi cold rolling mill meeting tight tolerances for strip quality, flatness and thickness will have an annual capacity of 200,000 mt, while the continuous galvanizing line will be designed to process GI and GL coatings with an annual capacity of around 200,000 mt

With the investment in a second cold rolling complex, the company is further expanding its high-quality cold rolled steel capacity, in order to cater for a growing domestic steel market, and also to allow for increased exports.
