  • Description
  • In 1953 the Jones & Laughlin Steel Corporation embarked on a major expansion project at their Aliquippa Works facility. A new 44-inch blooming mill and its drive were installed, replacing a steam-engine drive mill that set many production records during its time. The installation process was accomplished in the remarkable time of 7 days and 14 1/2 hours of down-time. The 44-inch Blooming Mill was shut down in October 1984.
