In a significant operation, Phu My Flat Steel, a subsidiary of Viet Nam Steel Corporation, engaged Danieli Service Vietnam to conduct an urgent refurbishment of its cold rolling mill gearbox. This action was prompted by a spindle failure that had compromised the gearbox’s geometry, risking prolonged downtime for the critical machinery. The quick response and expertise from Danieli Service ensured that the disruption to production was kept to an absolute minimum.

The refurbishment process involved a detailed, multi-phase approach designed to effectively address the issues without lengthy interruptions. The first phase included an initial laser survey of the gearbox, which was crucial in identifying the specific problems and determining the necessary corrective actions. This precise assessment allowed the team to develop a focused plan to restore the gearbox to full functionality.

Following the survey, the second phase involved sourcing a new set of spare gears and bearings. Special bushings, manufactured in Danieli's workshops, were also included in this phase. This preparation was essential, as it ensured that all necessary components were on-site before the actual refurbishment work began. By managing the supply chain efficiently, Danieli Service was able to keep the project on track.

The execution phase was where Danieli Service demonstrated its capabilities. Using specialized on-site machining equipment, the team meticulously restored the gearbox geometries. This phase lasted just seven days, during which all new components were installed, and rigorous running tests were conducted to ensure optimal performance. The swift completion of the project received high praise from Phu My Flat Steel, highlighting the effectiveness of Danieli's service.

This successful operation not only minimized the mill’s downtime but also reinforced the importance of having skilled service providers like Danieli Service Vietnam available for urgent repairs. The expertise and efficiency displayed during this gearbox overhaul reflect a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction that is vital in the steel production industry.

Phu My Flat Steel plays a crucial role in Vietnam’s steel sector, producing high-quality flat steel products that are essential for various applications. Keeping its machinery in top condition is critical to maintaining production levels and meeting market demands. The timely refurbishment of the cold rolling mill gearbox is a testament to Phu My's proactive approach to equipment maintenance.
