Precision in Every Element
Overview
Our manufacturing process is basically a gauge reduction process for which the raw material i.e. stainless steel flats are first hot rolled and then cold rolled.
Hot Rolling
The stainless steel flats are first cut into the required sizes and then hot rolled to convert them into 16 gauge sheet or patta.
Hot rolling involves annealing the flat pieces in a furnace and then rolling them in a heated state.
The end product of this process is a stainless steel sheet of 16 gauge, which is called “Hot Patta.”
Annealing & Pickling
Next, the cold rolling process begins. The Hot Patta is first annealed in a furnace at a temperature of around 900°C.
This step is called Annealing. The annealed patta is then treated with a mixture of acids like Nitric Acid and Sulphuric Acid.
This chemical process is known as Pickling, and the result is a finished product called “Pickled Patta.”
Roughing Mill
Final Annealing
Final Output
This process gives 22 gauge sheets. The process is required to be repeated multiple times for further reduction.
Now, the sheets are ready for dispatch.
Ancillary Operations
Various ancillary machinery are also required such as:
Roll Grinding: Rolls have to be grinded with high precision to ensure good surface finish of the sheets.
Sheet Cutting: Edges of the sheets are cut to form proper shape.
Filter Press: The acid mix water used for washing is treated properly before discharge.
