SARRALLE Offices in the United States
Sarralle has been operating in the US since 2013, when we opened our offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With continued client order growth, in 2021 we decided to open our second location in Mobile Alabama. This allows SARRALLE to better serve our southern US clients attending to their requirements with fast responsive local contacts.
ARCELORMITTAL / NIPPON STEEL CORPORATION - AM/NS CALVERT
One of the greatest milestones of this past season was the contract awarded by ArcelorMittal and Nippon Steel Corporation to design and supply a complete and totally new steel melting facility equipped with state-of-the-art technology allowing AM/NS to produce in the first half of next year, 1,5 million high-tech steel plates within their Alabama facility.
The plant will include the following state of art Sarralle equipment: DC - EAF, Twin Station Ladle Furnace, Plant Material Handling System, Fume Treatment System, Statcom and Ancillary Ladle and Ancillary Support Equipment.
When completed this will position AM/NS Calvert as one of the most technologically advanced steel plants in the world with a consistent and intelligent, automated, ecological and efficient production process based on a safe operation.
Undoubtedly this a further step in the ongoing stable and trust collaboration between both parties; An undertaking of more than 50 projects for Arcelor Mittal throughout the world.
STEEL DYNAMIC INC. (SDI)
Another equally important project of SARRALLE in the United States was undertaken in 2018 for Steel Dynamics Inc. (SDI) Roanoke Virginia. Sarralle designed and supplied a continuous caster upgrade. In addition to unique equipment designs for specific unique conditions, Sarralle manufactured, provided assembly supervision, commissioning including pre-tests in our facilities before leaving for our clients site.
SARRALLE’s work will be completed in three phases the first completed being the modernization and automation work of the mid-section of the next-generation caster. A key factor which will allow SDI to better serve additional markets with operational consistency as well as higher product quality.
SARRALLE Continuous Casting Machines are designed for a wide range of sizes, operational flexibility and steel grades which include:
NUCOR STEEL BIRMINGHAM
An additional stepping stone on Sarralle’s, North America market penetration includes the Nucor Steel Birmingham conversation of their 56-ton electric arc furnace (EAF) into an EBT design with including significant automation and safety features. These benefits consisted of the EBT tapping concept with single point roof lift and swing, tap to tap time productivity increases, reduced slag carryover into the ladle, and the safety around the EAF with auto tap lance and slag door provisions. The manufacturing was carried out in Sarralle’s facilities in the north of Spain.
SARRALLE Blue Efficient Arc® - Electric Arc Furnaces are based on decades of experience providing our customers with an innovative design and high-quality manufactured equipment supported by our highly experienced technical staff.
NORTH AMERICAN STEEL (NAS)
Sarralle’s lastest contract awarded in the United States was inked May of 2021 with North American Stainless (NAS), one of the largest stainless steel manufacturers in the country. The scope consisted on the supply of a new fully automated slitting line (0.4 to 3.0 mm thick) for the transformation of steel coils up to 35Tn, which will start up in the first quarter of 2022.
SARRALLE will design, manufacture, install and commission the line including the mechanical, hydraulic and electrical components, as well as the manufacture of new electrical control cabinets. The line will be fully automated, with a new PLC and Level II connection to existing ERP in NAS. The new line will consist of the combination of the modernization of an existing line from Acerinox France combined with the design and construction of the new Sarralle supplied equipment.
This new investment further consolidates NAS as a leading manufacturer of stainless steel with products and services of the highest quality based on forward thinking technology and also reaffirming Sarralle as a consistent ally.
These projects reaffirm SARRALLE as an ally for the large steel manufacturers worldwide.
