Dillinger's WW2 heavy plate mill began operating exactly 50 years ago. On the morning of December 21, 1971, the first slab was rolled into heavy plate on the new 4.3 m quarto (four-high) mill stand.
Dillinger has been rolling plate since 1804 – and this long experience and tradition was put to use during the construction of “Walzwerk 2” (Rolling Mill 2), or WW2 for short, as the new plant was named to distinguish it from the existing heavy plate rolling mill. It marked a new phase in Dillinger’s development towards further specialization in heavy plate of continuously improving quality xbp gfnl-obkuwm ekgpvnnbun.
