Up to 120 m/min drawing speed. SMS Meer supplies six high-speed machines to Huitong Jincheng

The Chinese company Huitong Jincheng Precision Metal Manufacturing near Shanghai has ordered six drawing machines from SMS Meer, Germany, – two with integrated chamfering machines. With these machines, Huitong Jincheng aims to meet the high demand for bright steel products in China.

The six machines draw, cut and straighten the bars at a speed of 25 to 120 m/min., while the integrated chamfering machines finish the ends of up to 40 bars per minute.

Deviations for free-cutting and unalloyed steel are max. 0.2 mm per m. Huitong Jincheng is thus able to meet the high demands of its customers from the electronics and automotive industry.

"With the machines from SMS Meer, we can open up new market segments,” says Chih Hsiung, Deputy Managing Director of Huitong Jincheng.
We can profit from the good reputation of our supplier in the Asian region. When we tell our customers that we produce with SMS Meer equipment, they know that they can rely on our quality.”

A further advantage for Huitong Jincheng lies in the wide range of our products. The SMS Meer machines produce round, square and hexagonal profiles, with each machine being designed for a different diameter. The finished products range from 3 mm to 22 mm.

The machines supplied by SMS Meer are easy to operate. In addition, SMS Meer trains Huitong Jincheng’s operating personnel on site – before, during and after completion of the project.

Commissioning is scheduled for the 1^st quarter 2013.
