Reference Code   HSM-CSOpr
Department   Heavy Section Mill
Job Title   Cold Saw Cut-to-Length Line (CTL) Operator
Job Location   Abu Dhabi
No. Of Vacancy   4
Date Posted   1/1/2010
Closing Date   12/31/2010

The desired candidate should have 8 years experience in relevant Steel Industry and must have an Industrial Diploma/Degree.

General Summary:

Plant:A 1mtpy Heavy Structural Section Mill capable of rolling a very wide and complex range of products to demanding customer tolerances with piece weights from 17 kg/m to 540 kg/m, run-out lengths up to 170 metres and final cut-lengths from 6 to 24 metres. Highly demanding product and process complexity and frequent fast paced product change-overs are key features of this 250 ton per hour, $450m steel mill.

Sub Plant:A layering bank for building a layer for multiple ‘side by side’ cuts is pre-saws for aligning and grouping piece lengths up to 96 metres. A cut to length line consisting 2 fixed and 1 moving cold-saws and two measuring gauges/stoppers, each saw has a friction cutting disc of 2400mm dia to cut a range of customer lengths to a high degree of accuracy. Cuts cycles are likely to be around 300 cuts/hr. The process is handling differing lengths and customers orders with a piece rate of over 200 pcs/hr. The process is highly automated and demands high levels of skills and attention.

Deployment date will be 3rd quarter of 2011.
