Advantages of a favourable microstructure

Especially the microstructure of the edges – most important is the area of ca. 30 mm – can be produced with a sorbitic microstructure of nearly 100%.

This leads to certain advantages during cold rolling:

• non alloyed as well as alloyed carbon steels can be cold rolled with high reduction levels without initial annealing processes
• fewer annealing processes
• finest cold rolled microstructure
• higher uniformity of the mechanical and technological values
