Increased rate with sophisticated staggering of plates
The thermo-mechanical rolling process significantly improves plate properties in terms of strength, toughness, weldability and workability.
For this purpose, the rolling process is divided into different temperature and reduction ranges. Our X-Pact® Thermo-mechanical Rolling ensures multiple plates are rolled nested in a batch to maximize productivity.
