TRENDSETTER FOR STEEL QUALITY Processing Lines for High-End Automotive Steel Production

摘要

Product quality is a fundamental performance factor of new plants that serve the market for high-end automotive steels, in particular for exposed automotive panels. To supply the best strip quality, process new steel grades, and cut operational costs, Primetals Technologies offers a wide spectrum of advanced solutions for strip-processing lines (Fig. 1). This includes the use of solid-state laser welders, pickling tunnel tanks, skin-pass mills and tension levelers, side trimmers, and a new generation of surface-inspection systems. All of these solutions are linked through global quality and process monitoring software to provide just-in-time warnings and root-cause analyses.
