Butech Bliss selected to build New HCL Pickling Line.

Fulton County Processing has announced that Butech Bliss will be installing a new hydrochloric push/pull pickling line set to be operational in late 2014. The USD 20 million project will require an 82,000 square foot expansion to the plant, which will house the new line, provide for additional storage space and increase rail car capacity. When completed, the project is expected to create 14 new jobs.

Mr Jeff Kunkel GM at FCP nsaid that 'This new line will not only increase the production capabilities of the plant but it will allow us to capture a significant amount of business that has been leaving the area.'

The new line, a 4 tank Butech Bliss/Nelson engineered pickling line will feature anti coil break roll technology, and will handle a maximum coil weight of 74,000 lbs. The maximum product width will be 72' in thicknesses .060' to .375', but thickness capabilities extend up to .500' at 50' maximum width. Also featured will be a Parsytec in line inspection system and a shape correction unit for material up to .250' thick, which will guarantee superior product quality.
