SMS Siemag to supply cold mill to Aleris for the production of prime quality aluminum coil for the automotive industry

The new mill will be designed to produce up to 2,350-millimeter-wide prime quality coil, enabling Aleris to cater to the expected growing demand by the North American automotive industry for car body sheet made of aluminum.
All major components of the cutting-edge CVC® plus six-high cold mill will be manufactured in the modern workshops of the SMS group. In extensive integration tests prior to shipment, the X-Pact® electrical and automation system will be prepared for time-saving commissioning.
The full-line supply will also include a highly efficient Airwash™ air purification system, which will recover valuable rolling oil from the exhaust air and feed it back into the process cycle. This ensures that the investment will result in eco-friendly and resource-saving plant operation.
SMS Siemag AG is a company of the SMS group which, under the roof of the SMS Holding GmbH, consists of a group of global players in machinery and plant construction in steel and nonferrous metals processing. Its workforce of more than 13,800 employees generates sales worldwide totaling EUR 3.5 billion.
