MINO is pleased to announce the award of an important revamping contract from Daeho AL Co., Ltd, a well-established aluminium producer based in South Korea, specialized in the production of aluminium coils & sheets for high-tech applications, such as EV, ESS (Energy Storage System), LED TV, mobile phones, LED lighting, refrigerators and automotive parts.
The project involves the upgrade of one of the two Cold Mills supplied by MINO in the early 1990s to the South Korean company, at the time known as Namsun Aluminium. The extensive technical upgrade aims at enhancing production efficiency, product quality, and overall process reliability.
This important project is part of Daeho’s modernization strategy, focused on upgrading its aluminium rolling operations with the latest technological solutions. MINO will supply a comprehensive revamping package, including both mechanical upgrades and advanced automation systems, specifically tailored to improve the performance of the existing rolling mill.
The scope of the revamp includes:
- New entry equipment featuring an integrated side trimmer for precise edge control
- High-performance spray bars for optimized strip cooling and lubrication
- A modern Technological Control System (TCS) for accurate strip thickness and flatness control
- A shapemeter roll on the exit side for real-time strip flatness monitoring
- New thickness gauges for precise measurement and process control
These upgrades are expected to improve strip quality, enhance operational stability, and align the mill with the latest standards in aluminium cold rolling technology.
The collaboration between MINO and Daeho AL Co., Ltd dates back to the early 1990s, when MINO supplied to the South Korean company one Hot Mill and two Cold Mills for aluminium and aluminium alloys strip, a milestone project in South Korea’s aluminium industry sector.
The commissioning of these rolling mills was extremely successful, thus starting more than three decades of trusted partnership. Over the years, MINO has helped establish Daeho’s position as a key player in South Korea’s high-end aluminium market.
With this new contract, MINO further strengthens its presence in Far East and confirms its reputation as a global leader in cold rolling mill revamping solutions for the aluminium industry.
We are proud to continue supporting Daeho AL Co., Ltd in their strategic modernization goals and look forward to delivering one more successful project that reflects the quality, innovation, and reliability of MINO technology.
