| Butech Bliss to supply steel slab shear to ArcelorMittal Bremen |
|
Salem Mews reported that Salem based heavy equipment manufacturer Butech Bliss has bagged an order from ArcelorMittal to build the world's largest hot steel slab shear.
ArcelorMittal requires a machine capable of cutting three inch thick by 84 inch wide hot steel slabs traveling up to 250 feet per minute for its Bremen plant in Germany.
Mr Jock Buta executive VP of Butech Bliss said that “This order represents a needed step to both hiring back employees from layoff as well as reinstituting the other benefit cuts we have asked of our employees. It has many strong sales prospects as its customers begin to release orders for major capital expenditures that they have been holding back on, and the company expects more significant orders to be placed in the near future.”
The shear will weigh approximately one million pounds fully assembled, with its largest single component weighing over 100 tonnes. Butech Bliss estimates it will require nearly four man years of engineering and 15 man years of manufacturing. With many employees working simultaneously, the shear is scheduled to be delivered to Germany in late 2010
