SUNFLAG STEEL uses the Sponge iron--Electric arc furnace--Ladle heating furnace--Continuous casting--Rolling mills route, backed up by the state-of-the-art technology and computerized process control.
The production facilities include:
![]() |
Direct reduction plant (DRP):Based on Krupp's Codir process the DRP can produce 150,000 tones per year of sponge iron from iron ore and coal. Additionally, the flue gases help generate 15 MW of Electric power. | ||
![]() |
Electric arc furnace (EAF): 50/60 tones Ultra--high--power and Eccentric-- bottom-- tapping EAF with computer controlled continuous charging and dynamic energy management system. Ensures low tramp elements like, copper, tin, nickel etc. and at low cost. | ||
![]() |
Ladle heating furnace (LHF):With continuous argon purging through bottom porous plug; Celox probe for dissolved oxygen measurement and Calcium silicide wire feeder to refine and control morphology. | ||
![]() |
Continuous casting machine (CCM):6 meters radius 3 strand CCM is equipped with automatic mould level control, computerized secondary cooling, infra-red thermometers for surface temperature monitoring, ceramic and bellow shrouds to prevent re-oxidation and Electro-- magnetic- stirrer for homogenization. | ||
![]() |
Bar and section mill (BSM): The 60 tones per hour, 18 stand, 2 high continuous Mannesmann designed rolling mill is equipped with walking hearth type re-heating furnace, process control through real-time computers, Closed circuit TV system for billet and bar movements. | ||

Power plant (PP), This 15 MW plant uses the flue gases from the DRP to produce power. |
Besides these there is also an
Alloy steel mill (ASM), This specialty mill meets the product
sizes above 50 mm(2 inches), in alloy, carbon, spring and free-cutting steels.
Vacuum Degassing Unit [VDU] is operating in Sunflag since August 2001. This will provide the capacity to manufacture high value added Steel needed for critical application. It has assisted Sunflag to crescent its market share and the tonnage of steel that Sunflag can sell. All this has brought the Sunflag on par with any of the alloy steel plant in India. [More Info]
