Italy’s Danieli announced that a Mexican company has ordered two electric-resistance welded (ERW) tube mills from Danieli Centro Tubes.
Danieli said it will provide the equipment and technology for Achv Aceros’ new facilities in the western part of Monterrey, Mexico.
The mills will produce welded structural tubes with outside diameters of 3/4 to 7 9/16 inches (19-193 mm), and equivalent square and rectangular sections, with wall thicknesses up to 0.287 inches (7.3 mm).
Operations are expected to commence by the end of 2025.
Achv Aceros has a “well-established commercial network,” according to Danieli.
Achv Aceros is presumed to be Aceros Chula Vista, a Monterrey-based steel distributor and importer.
