Pickling line modernization - new steering system
OPP has installed and successfully launched a state-of-the-art strip steering system on the Pickling Line. The EMG-designed and manufactured steering system is a highly responsive, fully automated system that controls and adjusts steel strip position in real-time during the pickling process. The system prevents edge damage and ensures a perfect pickled coil "wall." The new system operates at line speeds up to 500 fpm.
