Objectif
The proposal is aimed at realising a new hot strip rolling technology for producing thin and ultra thin strips (thickness < 1.00 mm) with high geometrical properties. Low C steel strips for direct use (commercial mild steel for forming use, structural use and piping or tubing use) will be achievable through hot strip rolling, pickling and skin pass rolling. The cold rolling and the annealing processes are thus eliminated. Significant cost benefits can be recognised. They are related to: the elimination of the cold rolling and annealing costs; the reduction of the investment costs and of the maintenance costs; the elimination of the intermediate hot rolled coil storage, the energy saving and the just in time production. Once this new technology is tested and installed on the finishing mill of a compact strip mill, it will be applicable on any conventional hot steel strip production line.
