WISCO will add 550,000 tons of CRNGO and 220,000 tons of CRGO silicon steel production capacity in 2025 and 2026

Here's the professionally formatted English version with proper technical terminology and narrative flow:

"I miss my family, but we can overcome it for the smooth completion of the production line!"

– Miao Welding, Rolling Mill Installation Team Leader

Spring Festival Construction Sprint at WISCO's Mega Project

At Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.'s (WISCO) new energy non-oriented silicon steel optimization site on February 11, round-the-clock construction operations unfolded across an 800-meter-long, 200-meter-wide facility resembling a "horizontal skyscraper."

Engineering Excellence Behind EV Steel

As the core material for EV motors and compressors, non-oriented silicon steel represents the pinnacle of steel craftsmanship:

Premium Product: 55% higher added value than conventional steel

Technical Complexity: 12-stage precision rolling process

Market Demand: 300% growth forecast in EV applications by 2026

Mission-Critical Installation

Team leader Miao Wedding from Shandong leads 30 technicians in executing:
✅ 5+2 Schedule: 5 weekdays + 2 weekend days
✅ 24/7 Shifts: "Day-night" dual operation
✅ Micro-Precision: 100-micron alignment (hair-width accuracy) on 500 hydraulic cylinders and 600 sensors
