  • Arcelormittal Is Again Counting on the Strengths of the AUMUND Drag Chain Conveyor Type LOUISE São Paulo, Brazil, April 2017
    Press Information ArcelorMittal is again counting on the strengths of the AUMUND Drag Chain Conveyor Type LOUISE São Paulo, Brazil, April 2017 The steel maker ArcelorMittal is building on proven solutions and reliable partners in Brazil. About 20 years ago, a shock-pressure-proof drag chain conveyor was ordered for Brazil from LOUISE Fördertechnik before this company was acquired by AUMUND Fördertechnik GmbH, and now AUMUND has won an order for another drag chain conveyor type LOUISE TKF. The shock-pressure-proof design of its predecessor was no longer required for the new model because of the change in classification of the plant segment. The dispatch of the machine is planned for June 2017. 1998: AUMUND Drag Chain Conveyor, type LOUISE TKF, in ArcelorMittal’s João Monlevade plant in Brazil (photo AUMUND) The earlier model drag chain conveyor was ordered in 1998 by the then Brazilian arm of the Luxemburg steel company Arbed, CSBM, Companhia Siderurgica Belgo Mineira. Arcelor was created by the merger of Aceralia and Usinor and merged with Mittal in 2006 to become ArcelorMittal, the world’s leading steel concern. Press Information Around fifteen years ago, AUMUND Fördertechnik GmbH integrated the products of the LOUISE subsidiary into its own portfolio. This double strand drag chain conveyor with a capacity of 3 kW, a centre distance of 10.4 m and a performance of 25 t/h, will be used for bunker extraction. The previous machine proved its durability in an interesting way. One of the supports of a weighing cell collapsed and caused one side of the silo to subside.

  • The Modern Brazilian Steel Industry
    THE MODERN BRAZILIAN STEEL INDUSTRY By Professor Celso Lafer* *Minister of Foreign Relations Notwithstanding the importance of pioneer initiatives by the first generation of Brazilian industrialists, the foundation and growth of the modern steel industry in Brazil was made, in great part, by the state. Steel symbolized industrialization which, for many decades, was synonymous with progress. The government realized, correctly, that having vast reserves of iron ore, Brazil could aspire to a significant steel industry. And it acted on this belief, creating the industry during the Getúlio Vargas administration and promoting its growth during the decades of 1960 and 1970. The predominantly state model that was necessary at the industry’s inception had some success cases. Without the government’s action in the 1930s and 1940s, Brazil would probably not have developed a robust steel-producing base. During the following decades Brazil positioned itself among the main producers and exporters of steel in the world. The state model came to an end, as happened in other sectors, when the government management crisis brought to the surface unsustainable inefficiencies and weaknesses of the productive segment. During the 1990s the steel sector experienced a great transformation. In three years, between 1991 and 1993, all of the state steel industry was privatized through public bidding, and massive investment began to modernize it. In 1998 alone more funds were invested than the sum of monies invested during the 5-year period 1989-1994. In total, between 1994 and 2000, the new steel mill owners invested US$ 10.2 billion in modernization, upgrading, cost reduction and environmental protection works.

  • Hoosier Women at Work Studies in Indiana Women’S History
    HOOSIER WOMEN AT WORK STUDIES IN INDIANA WOMEN’S HISTORY Session 1: Women, Work, and War March 2016 The Impact of World War II: Mexican American and Japanese American Women at Work in Indiana Nancy N. Conner* Two groups of women, each representing a distinctive minority community within Indiana, earned a place in the history of Hoosier Women at Work as a result of World War II. In different ways, the war brought Mexican American defense workers in northwest Indiana and Japanese American factory workers in Indianapolis into the Hoosier workforce. Industry provided the impetus for twentieth-century development of numerous cities in The Region, that is, the northwest Indiana counties of Lake, Porter and La Porte. One city in particular has a long history of Mexican immigration, dating back more than a hundred years. That city is East Chicago, Indiana, on the shore of Lake Michigan. Although East Chicago is the formal name of this city, it was once called the “Twin City,” comprised of East Chicago on the east side of town and a section known as Indiana Harbor on the west side. Indiana Harbor was home to Mexican immigrants – many originally from Jalisco, Guanajuato and Michoacán – who came to work in the nearby steel plants. To this day, the population of East Chicago is slightly more than 50% Hispanic.1 A confluence of factors led to this unusual demographic. As the great steel mills of The Region rose to prominence around the turn of the twentieth century, they became a magnet for new *Nancy Conner served as Director of Grants & Novel Conversations at Indiana Humanities from 1982 until her retirement in 2016.
