Tube mill to be delivered OFFICINE MTM SpA (MTM Tube Mills) will be delivering a complete new tube mill system this autumn to Fati Steel, located in Varennes, Quebec, Canada. This will be Fati Steel’s second MTM tube mill. The MTM 070 C ST HF tube mill will consist of an automated, hands- free entry system, a rafted tube mill, in-line TCT cold-saw cut-off and a fully automatic packaging system. In 2007, Fati Steel wanted to add ERW tube production to its portfolio of products and services. Inexperienced in producing tubing, Fati needed a supplier that could not only provide the tube-making equipment, but could

also provide training in the technical know-how for the production of high- quality tubing. The company has now purchased its second MTM line, to keep up with its current production demands. As stated by the customer, the key advantages of the MTM equipment is the simplicity of use, ease of maintenance, and the ability to reliably produce quality product at high production rates. MTM currently has four complete tube mills under production scheduled for shipment in 2014, with another mill set to arrive in North America in October. Officine MTM SpA has been providing entry equipment, tube mills, cut-off saws and packaging equipment to the tube mill, roll forming and automotive industry since 1972. The company works with its customers to determine the exact solution best suited to their needs.
