According to Nippon Steel, in the automotive industry demand for high-performance materials is expected to increase further in response to needs for more lightweight and stronger vehicle bodies, as global environmental regulations and collision safety standards are being tightened and social needs to achieve carbon neutrality are increasing. Electric vehicles are also expected to need more lightweight and stronger vehicle bodies due to the issues of mileage and battery weight. In response to these needs, Nippon Steel will fundamentally strengthen the production system for high-grade steel sheets, such as ultra-high-tensile strength steel sheets, which can also be effective in reducing greenhouse gas emissions throughout the entire automobile life cycle from material production through driving.
The strip mill was a major innovation in steelmaking , with the first being erected at Ashland, Kentucky in This provided a continuous process, cutting out the need to pass the plates over the rolls and to double them, as in a pack mill. At the end the strip was cut with a guillotine shear or rolled into a coil. Early hot rolling strip mills did not produce strip suitable for tinplate, but in cold rolling began to be used to reduce the gauge further. The first strip mill in the United Kingdom was opened at Ebbw Vale in with an annual output of , tons.
The diameter of the 6-high work rolls amounts to approximately in relation to the barrel length. In comparison to a 4-high mill stand, the utilization range is wider. This type of rolling mill is mainly used in offline applications for cold rolling of soft and medium strip and for a wide range of strip widths.

Read about Songer's new Electrical Division. Our familiarity with the Gary facility would serve us well and save US Steel money in the process, as we confronted the challenge of systematically and safely moving three, , pound tables—definitely considered wide loads. We developed specialized rigging, equipment and lifting lugs for the move—deploying experienced union riggers and truck drivers to plan and execute the relocation without any safety issues or plant delays. The charging tables were safely staged for installation on schedule for a lower cost, and helped to keep the largest manufacturing plant in the US Steel family rolling. The chain conveyor pits at the US Steel Gary Works developed a costly run-off problem over the years that was ultimately solved by Songer Services.

It's a pity that I can't comment now - I'm late for a meeting. But I will be released - I will absolutely write that I think about this issue.

I can not participate in the discussion now - it is very busy. But I will soon necessarily write that I think.
