The Slab Furnace No.1 Modernization Project aims to prevent quality problems caused by the Slab Furnace No.1 during the slab production phase, to minimize the need for the use of the Slab Furnace No.4 except for mandatory sizes, and to increase the strip production in the Slab Furnace No.1. Within the scope of the project, existing equipment in the Slab Furnace No.1 has been modernized and new equipment has been procured and installed. The project is a mandatory investment, and capacity increase was not the goal. Erdemir Engineering contributed to the feasibility, planning, design, purchasing and project execution processes within the scope of the project. The project was completed on April 14, 2023.
