Steelmaking
Hydraulic and automation technologies for steelworks and rolling mills
Fluid System supports the steelmaking sector with hydraulic, pneumatic, automation and control technologies designed for steelworks, rolling mills, continuous casting plants, presses, furnaces and handling lines. In these contexts, reliability, power, control and safety are essential requirements for ensuring production continuity under high loads, high temperatures and intensive cycles.
Technical expertise for harsh environments and continuous cycles
Steelmaking plants require components capable of operating with heat, dust, vibration, contamination and shock loads. Fluid System supports machine builders, maintenance teams and technical departments in selecting hydraulic power units, special cylinders, pumps, valves, accumulators, filtration, cooling, sensors, cable carriers and pneumatic components for new plants, maintenance and revamping.

FAQ — solutions for Steelmaking
Steelmaking applications mainly require heavy-duty hydraulic power units, special cylinders, high-performance pumps, robust valves, accumulators, filtration, heat exchangers and instrumentation for controlling critical parameters.
Yes. Fluid System designs and manufactures special hydraulic cylinders for demanding industrial applications, with sizing, materials, treatments and configurations defined according to loads, strokes, operating environment and machine cycle.
Dust, temperature, intensive cycles and contamination can compromise the reliability of hydraulic circuits. Filters, heat exchangers and monitoring systems help protect pumps, valves and actuators, reducing wear and downtime.
Yes. Fluid System can support maintenance, revamping and optimisation work, with component replacement, hydraulic circuit updates, improved thermal management, filtration and operating-parameter control.
