At Gerdau Monroe, one of the Special Bar Quality of the group, Polytec USA has just completed the installation of new, high-performance DC drives for seven stands of the roughing mill. "Despite a short outage with limited installation spaces and many old components to be integrated, the automation upgrade project has been successfully completed by Polytec USA team. We could count on supplier’s proven reliability and we have appreciated the highly flexible approach to personal relationships and team group leadership." said Adriano Mambrini Torres, Project Manager of Gerdau Monroe.
