Plate Geneva Steel has three plate finishing capabilities, including wide coiled plate, flat-rolled plate and strip mill plate product. Geneva can roll the thinner plate products with the same production efficiencies as thicker plate products, producing superior quality coils and plate (including high-end products such as pressure vessel quality and HSLA steels). Steel coils up to 1,000 PIW and up to 124-inches wide and 1-inch thick can be processed through the Company's 126-inch wide cut-up-line. The line also has rotary trimmers to produce cut edge product when required. Plate is stenciled to mark its grade and size, transported to a piling bed and then moved to the plate shipping facility where it is loaded onto trucks or railcars for shipping. |
1,000 PIW COIL Geneva Steel coils are produced in traditional hot-rolled bands 72 inches wide and less or coils up to 124 inches wide and one inch thick, providing improved cost-efficiencies for customers by decreasing yield loss and down time. Geneva also offers its customers temper-rolled sheet coils for selected end-uses where cut edges, freedom from coil breaks or special packaging is required. After being banded and categorized, coils are transported to storage and loading facilities, where they await shipment to Geneva customers via rail or truck transport. Typical end-uses for Geneva Steel products include industrial and agricultural
machinery, pipelines, |
ERW Line Pipe Geneva Steel's high frequency electric resistance weld pipe mill has an established reputation for producing high quality pipe. This is due to the use of high quality coil made from steel manufactured through our ladle metallurgy furnace, cast in our continuous caster, then complemented by the Company's outstanding production and testing facilities. The pipe mill uses an ultrasonic testing system that inspects weld quality following the pipe welding process and again after the hydrotesting process. In addition, the body and weld of each section is then tested with a full body electromagnetic inspection system, making it one of the few mills in the industry to offer both ultrasonic and EMI testing after the hydrotest. Geneva's pipe mill is a qualified producer of API line pipe and oil country tubular products. Due to the centralized western location and low cost production process, the pipe mill can reach many areas of the country very competitively. |
Through its revolutionary plant modernization, Geneva Steel has increased operating efficiencies, expanded product lines, improved product quality and significantly increased throughput capacity. With these improvements in place, Geneva is working to provide superior customer satisfaction that brings the revolution home to our customers.
The Company recently completed a product sales kit which includes a video of our steelmaking process for both plate and coil products. Theses kits are available by calling Geneva Sales at 1-800-874-5316 or by e-mail at sales@geneva.com.
