A very common objective within the metal industry is to modify the surface hardness of steel (see definition of steel hardness) without modifying the internal resilience. To modify the surface hardness of the steel, heat treatments and thermochemical treatments are used. Heat treatments The objective of heat treatments is to modify the mechanical properties very […]
Plasma cutting is a process in which conductive materials are cut by an accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical plasma cut materials are stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, aluminum, copper, and other conductive metals. Plasma Cutting Utilities Plasma cutting is widely used in automotive manufacturing, repair and restoration, industrial construction, salvage and scrap. Due to […]
El Boiler steels It is mainly made of specially hot-rolled, low-alloy carbon steel. This type of boiler steel is manufactured for the most important parts of the boilers such as: the boiler casing, the drum, the head cover and the hanger. Boiler steel plate material is usually medium / thick and has to be very heat […]
The combination of iron ore with other elements creates various types of steel that produce metal with different physical properties and for a wide variety of different applications, including machining steel. There are different variations of steel compositions, but for the machining industry we can distinguish between 4 basic categories of steel (from least to […]
