VENEZUELAN MILL ORDERS MORGAN RING DISTRIBUTOR SYSTEM
28 April 2004 - Morgan Construction Company

Morgan do Brasil, of São Paulo, Brazil, a subsidiary of Morgan Construction Company, has received an order from Siderúrgica Del Orinoco (SIDOR) C.A., of Bolivar, Venezuela, for the design, manufacturer and installation of two Reform Station Modifications with incorporation of Morgan's patented Ring Distributor System.

According to Ricardo Cruz, Sales Manager of Morgan do Brasil, 'The upgraded system, which will be installed at SIDOR’s two-strand mill, will replaces the existing reform tub.'

'The upgrade,' he continued, 'will enable SIDOR to produce a better coil package with reduced coil height.'

The mill produces plain rod in size ranges of from 5.5 mm to 12.7 mm diameter at speeds of up to 75 meters per second, with its annual production currently around 550,000 metric tonnes.

Cruz added, 'Design and engineering work will be performed at the company's Worcester, Massachusetts, headquarters, while the mechanical equipment will be manufactured in Brazil. The new equipment is scheduled to be installed by the end of this year.
