Yield unknown until month end
Billet input, bundle output and scrap by type are booked per heat as the mill runs.
TMT bars and structural steel
Rolling Mills ERP software
Designed for rolling mills, optimizing the production of TMT bars, structural steel and various shapes for greater efficiency.
Quick answer
What is rolling mill ERP?
Rolling mill ERP is software for mills producing TMT bars, structural steel and other sections. Formezy follows each heat from billet receipt through reheating, rolling, quenching and shearing to tagged bundles, so yield, scrap, energy use and test results are known per heat.
Furnace fuel as a black box
Fuel and temperature readings can be captured per shift and compared across heats.
Bundles without a heat link
Every bundle tag carries its heat number and test results to the certificate.
Segments
Built for every rolling mills segment
3 segments, each with its own shop-floor process flow.
TMT bars
Thermo-mechanically treated rebars, with heat-wise yield, quenching data and tensile, bend and rebend results for every bundle.
See the 7-step flowStructural sections
Angles, channels, beams and flats, with roll-pass changes, section-wise output and straightening tracked per heat.
See the 7-step flowWire rods
Wire rod mills with controlled cooling, with coil-wise weights, cooling parameters and heat-wise test results.

Questions
Rolling Mills ERP: common questions
Still have a question?
Talk to a metal ERP specialist about your own plant and process route.
Which rolling mills segments does Formezy support?
Formezy supports tmt bars, structural sections and wire rods, each with its own process flow. Plants that combine segments run them in one system.
Which rolling mill products does Formezy support?
TMT bars, structural steel such as angles, channels and beams, and other rolled shapes.
How is yield measured per heat?
Billet input weight is compared with bundle output, and crop ends, miss-rolls and other scrap are booked by type, so yield is known for each heat.
Can reheating furnace data be captured?
Yes. Through IoT & Automation, fuel and temperature readings can be captured per shift and analysed alongside production.
How are test results linked to bundles?
Tensile, bend and rebend results are linked to the heat, and every bundle tag carries that heat, so certificates are generated with the right results.
Does it support dispatch planning for bundles?
Yes. Transport lineup, available capacity, loading lists and bills of lading are managed from the same record.
