Cascade Steel Rolling Mills, USA, is to upgrade its single-strand rod outlet and has ordered high-speed pinch roll and laying head assemblies - capable of operating at up to 120m/s.

Morgan Construction Company has received a contract from Cascade Steel Rolling Mills of McMinnville, Oregon, USA, to upgrade the company's single-strand rod outlet Neil Gow, sales manager of Morgan's rolling mill division, noted the order is for high-speed pinch roll and laying head assemblies

In announcing the contract, he explained, "A key role in the company's selection process was Morgan's ability to provide them with superior and proven technology, specifically Morgan's successful laying head with 120m/s capability for 5.5mm wire rod." The product range that will be produced using this new equipment will be wire rod in sizes 5.5mm to 20mm and rebar in sizes 3 through 6.

This equipment, to be supplied in August 2006, will be completely manufactured and assembled at Morgan's headquarters in Worcester, Massachusetts.

Morgan's last contract with Cascade, for reform tub assembly with ring distributor and coil plate, was successfully commissioned in November of 2002.

Morgan Construction Company is a designer and producer of high-quality rolling mill products and services for the metals industry worldwide.
