Pioneering
work and a good head start
When engineers in the early 1950s were looking for alternatives
to the Siemens-Martin method and the Thomas method, little
did they know that with the invention of the Linz-Donawitz
(LD) method they would set off a revolution in steel manufacturing.
Nowadays more than 60% of global steel production takes place
using the LD method in plant, of which more than 30% were
planned, built and commissioned by Siemens VAI. The VAI engineers
have constantly developed the system further and with the
automation know-how gained from Siemens, the lead now held
by the merged companies in the area of steel production
is nigh unassailable. In the meantime, Siemens VAI has extended
its market and technology leadership to include the entire
range of converter methods, their upstream and downstream
process steps as well as the electric steel production line.
Siemens VAI supplies
the entire range of products, systems and processes for
efficient and reliable steel production. From the expansion
or modernization of individual parts of a system through
to a complete new build in the framework of a turnkey project,
Siemens VAI is opening up new horizons in the field of steel
manufacturing.
