The investment was made to meet the increasing demand for high-quality rebar driven by growing construction projects in Indonesia and to enhance production efficiency. The new line will be capable of producing rebar in diameters from 5.2 to 32 mm at speeds of up to 45 meters per second. This will enable PT. Bahagia Steel to increase its production capacity, support local infrastructure projects, and strengthen its competitive position.
SMS group will supply the mechanical and automation equipment for the line. The system includes a high-speed shear before the finishing block, a water-box cooling unit, and a dual-strand HSD® line. The HSD® technology combines the production of very fine-diameter products with high capacity, delivering precision, higher material yield, and efficient process control. In particular, with multi-strand production, it is expected to achieve an approximately 2% increase in material yield by reducing the proportion of short bars.
The collaboration between PT. Bahagia Steel and SMS group lays the foundation for a long-term partnership that will support infrastructure investments in Indonesia. The energy-efficient and advanced HSD® line will enhance the company’s competitiveness in the rebar market while enabling it to meet rising demand.
