Improved Steel Quality, Prolonged Plant Life, and Reduced Downtime 

Due to the size and nature of steel manufacturing machinery and equipment removing large items of plant and machinery for repair and refurbishment is not a viable option, therefore it must be done in situ and that’s where the Metalock Engineering Group can help you.

If its iron making, steel making (flat or long products) casting, rolling, extruding or forging, we have successfully completed countless projects all around the world, from our network of global offices we offer our full range of steel industry related services.

The work we do can extend and prolong the working life of steel plants. It improves the quality of the steel produced and reduces the use of expensive spares. All of which reduces downtime and increases productivity.

Major Steel Mill Machining Repairs

The Metalock Engineering Group have developed a very large range of machining equipment specifically designed for the steel industry. We have machined 7 mill stands at the same time using upwards of 40 skilled machining technicians around the clock, maximising the amount of work that can be done within the shutdown window.

These services are one of our core activities and having been involved in hundreds of successful major Steel Mill machining projects all around the world, Metalock is one of the world leaders in these fields of expertise.
