NMDC has signed a contract for Steel Making Shop (SMS) Package with a consortium led by Siemens VAI, Austria.
The contract is for the upcoming three million tpa integrated steel plant at Nagarnar, Chhattisgarh. The steel melting shop will convert hot metals produced by the blast furnace to steel. It will subsequently be the input for the thin slab caster and rolling mill to produce the finished saleable product such as low carbon, high strength, line pipe quality, automobile steel, and so on, in the form of hot rolled coils.
