Optimisation and improvement of the flame straightening process

Objective

The research proposal "OPTISTRAIGHT" aims at the improvement of the manufacturing process for geometry achieving of elements and members out of structural steel, leading to a significant enhancement of the competitiveness of steel construction elements for the construction, crane, ship and machinery industry.

This objective will be achieved by proofing the efficiency and feasibility of the flame straightening procedures to be researched. These procedures will result into more precise geometry, less detrimental effect on the material, less energy input, quicker and healthier production and thus improved economical positions avoiding expensive repair work.
