1955

Luigi Danieli took over the family business which, at that time employed 50 people, and started designing and manufacturing equipment for the steel industry. Mr. Danieli’s idea was to manufacture more competitive equipment, simplify layouts and maximize the use of automation. One of the concepts developed, namely the "EAF - conticaster - rolling mill" production route, has characterized and contributed to the successful development of the minimill process that is widely adopted today.
