7. 7 EXISTING PRODUCTION PROCESS On December 9, 1965, a new steel melting shop with three open heath furnaces was commissioned. In October 1968, the first million tons of rolled products was manufactured, and in April 1970, the first continuous casting machine (vertical caster) was put into operation. LM presently operates three Open-Hearth Furnaces (OHFs) feeding a billet caster which in turn supplies two Rolling Mills (RMs). A new continuous billet caster was installed in 2006 by Siemens VAI to replace the old Vertical Casters. The LM operation presently consists of: · 3 x 170 tonne Siemens-Martin Open-Hearth Furnaces; · 2 x eight strand Vertical Billet Casters (one is in process being demolished); 1 x four-strand curved mould Continuous Billet Caster (installed in 2006). · 1 x 350/250 Rebar & Wire-rod Rolling Mill; · 1 x 350 Rebar Rolling Mills. 10-December-2010

8. 8 The existing three Open-Heart Furnace (Martin Furnaces) meltshop’s annual capacity is ~ 555’000 t of billet (semi- finished product) which are taken to the Rolling Mills for further production. Two Rolling Mills produce combined about 670’000 t per year of rebar (finished product). As a result, LM buys ~ 140K t of billet elsewhere (chiefly in Belarus) in order to keep its Rolling Mills producing at their full capacity.
