Airslide Conveyor Increases Production

From FLSmidth
 

 
Nucor Corp., headquartered in Charlotte, N.C., is the nation's largest scrap-metal recycler and steel producer, operating several facilities throughout the US. Nucor Texas, a part of Nucor's Bar Mill Group, operates a facility in Jewett, Tex., where it melts and refines scrap metal in a melt shop to produce steel billets. These are later formed into various steel products, such as rebar, rounds, angles, channels, and flats that are used in commercial, industrial, highway, and residential construction projects
