SeverCorr, a brand-new steel company with a 1.5 million ton capacity facility has selected TabWare EFx from AssetPoint as their CMMS/EAM software for the new facility. The steel mill – with a state of the art melt shop, thin slab caster, hot mill, cold mill and a hot-dip galvanizing line – serves a growing manufacturing infrastructure in the Southern United States. The facility is located in Lowndes County Mississippi, with easy access to both rail and Interstate truck routes for fast delivery to more than twelve targeted states.
SeverCorr produced it's first hot roll in late August of 2007, and expects to be near capacity – 1.5 million tons annually – by the end of 2008 and will eventually deliver up to 1.5 million tons of high grade steel products for manufacturing plants in the southern US and northern Mexico.
SeverCorr is the first new steel mill in the United States in decades. Despite their brief existence, SeverCorr intends to make history as the first in a new generation of steelmakers that blend new technology with a new way of doing business. TabWare EFx software from AssetPoint will contribute to that blend of new technology to support SeverCorr in their groundbreaking efforts.
