Innovation for the Future
The structure and the production facilities of the special steel division are set up in such a way as to guarantee the superior homogeneity and integrity of the materials produced. The investments in new remelting plants and new production technologies allow the company to look to the future maintaining the vocation for innovation.

Current electric arc furnace (EAF)
CAPACITY
80 tons
ADVANTAGES
• Capacity to melt whole blocks up to 15 tons
• High level of homogeneity of the material
• Inexistent risk of slag in the ladles
Secondary metallurgy
The refining plant of the company has:
n.03 Ladle Furnace (LF) n.03 Vacuum Degasing Stations (VD),
one of which ecquipped for VOD process.
Each LF is equipped with its own VD and our equipment guarantees optimal mixing of the material to obtain homogeneity and a high level of cleanliness.
