Wire Rod Mill Solutions for High-Speed Rolling and Reliability

Maximum Consistency and Reliability for Wire Rod Mills

Speed, reliability, and process flexibility are essential for productive wire rod rolling operations, enabling high-volume production of small sizes, maximum uptime, and the ability to handle multiple sizes and grades with precise tolerances, metallurgical properties, and surface quality.

As pioneers in long rolling technology, Primetals Technologies leverages extensive knowledge and experience to deliver optimal solutions for wire rod mills. Recognized as a leading provider of efficient wire rod mill technology, Primetals Technologies offers Morgan Vee No-Twist® Mills, Morgan Reducing/Sizing Mills, advanced controlled cooling systems, and thermomechanical rolling processes. Finishing blocks, High-Speed Trim Shear, and the Morgan High-Speed Laying Head are supplied to ensure reliable high-speed rolling and the production of superior coil packages. For challenging steel grades, the versatile Morgan Stelmor conveyor system enables a broad range of cooling conditions. Coil reforming, handling, and compacting systems from Primetals Technologies ensure the delivery of the highest quality coils for demanding markets.

Primetals Technologies has installed or upgraded more than 500 rolling mills on six continents. These mills have set worldwide benchmarks for technological leadership, reliability, and performance.

Rod Rolling Processing

High speed, high production capacity, and reliability are critically important on the finishing end of a wire rod mill. Primetals Technologies supplies the Morgan Vee No-Twist Mill, Morgan Mini-Block, and the Morgan High-Speed Pinch Roll & Laying Head. These technologies provide the flexibility to produce a wide range of sizes and steel qualities with optimal product dimensional accuracy. To meet the unique demands of the non-ferrous market, we supply entry shears, intermediate shears, rolling stands, and finishing blocks.

Rod Sizing Technology

With two decades of operational expertise across more than 60 installed strands, Primetals Technologies engineers have advanced the Morgan Rod Reducing/Sizing Mill into a highly versatile and sought-after rolling technology for close-tolerance products and thermomechanical rolling.

Controlled Cooling

Using Morgan Water Boxes and the Morgan Stelmor Controlled Cooling Conveyor allows the processing of a wide range of steel grades and enables thermomechanical rolling. We also offer pickling lines for cooling during copper and aluminum rod production.
