FAM has supplied ArcelorMittal a new Stacker Reclaimer to be erected at its Burns Harbor Terminal. FAM selected MC Industrial to self-perform the approximately 1,700-ton equipment installation after reviewing the firm’s extensive work history at the steel producer’s Burns Harbor site and the technical expertise in Stacker Reclaimer projects.
