Specialists of the shop and experts of Metinvest-Promservice carried out tightening of drives and repair of the coil preparation section’s wiring.

Also, since the beginning of the year, Zaporizhstal has saved UAH 900,000 on slab cutting thanks to an automatic gas cutting machine, which was assembled from spare parts by specialists of the hot rolling shop. Such an economic effect was achieved due to a reduction in the amount of cutting in the production of slabs.
