Morgan Receives Order for Coil Reform Upgrade
Worcester, Mass., June 20, 1997

Morgan Construction Company has received an order from British Steel Sections, Plates & Commercial Steels to upgrade the coil reform equipment to include the Morgan Ring Distributors at their rod mill in Scunthorpe, England. The four-strand rod mill was initially built by Morgan in 1976, with Morgan water boxes installed in 1994.

According to Colin Roy, vice president of international rolling mill sales, "The order includes the addition of the patented Morgan Ring Distributors for all four strands of the mill, which produces rod from 5.0 to 13.75 mm."

The first strand was successfully commissioned this spring with final commissioning of the other three strands scheduled to be in August.

"The upgrade will provide Scunthorpe with improved coil shape, resulting in better coil payoff for their customers. The order was placed through our subsidiary in Sheffield, England, Morgan-Europe Limited," he noted. To date, fifteen Morgan Ring Distributors have been installed in various mills in Europe through Morgan-Europe Limited.

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