Groundwork starts on second pig machine at FHS

The site of a second pig machine has been marked out at Formosa Ha Tinh Steel.

The equipment is due to be started up on March 31, 2020, and will serve both operational blast furnaces at the site.

The first pig machine, which has been in use since May 2017, was supplied as part of CISDI’s EPC-based services for blast furnaces 1 and 2.

Before installation, site preparation work has created a new 290-metre-long railway. Necessary rebuilds and peripheral activities have been completed, including the pig yard leveling, old foundation crushing, the foundation for a spare parts warehouse and the industrial waste water well.
