Production flexibility and reliability for high-tech applications
Acciaieria Arvedi’s technological setup enables the production of steels destined for a wide range of industrial applications and sectors requiring specific technical characteristics.
The material’s properties include weldability, formability, strength, and product uniformity—characteristics demanded in numerous application contexts.
Hot-rolled products are manufactured in a thickness range extending down to 0.8 mm, featuring controlled dimensional tolerances and geometric characteristics tailored to the requirements of downstream processing.
The production and refining process focuses on controlling the material's metallurgical quality and its processing characteristics.
CONSTANT QUALITY
The product is obtained through a highly automated production system each phase of which is controlled. This is why we are able to ensure product consistency and repetitiveness.
WORKABILITY
Workability is given by the very fine grain size (ASTM 11-12) which improves the elongation characteristics and enhances attitude to cold deformation of the steel through profiling and pressing.
SIGNIFICANT RESISTANCE CHARACTERISTICS
The low levels of sulphur, obtained through a special liquid steel refining process, and the absence of segregation, fruit of the typical Arvedi liquid core reduction process, improve resistance characteristics and give the steel excellent characteristics of fatigue resistance and resilience to low temperatures.
GEOMETRIC PRECISION
Thickness tolerances are guaranteed within the limits set by close tolerances of standard EN10031, with a practically flat cross-section and a longitudinal profile with a variation of 0.4 mm for gauges from 1 to 1.5 mm.
OPTIMIZATION OF THE PRODUCTION YIELDS
The very high dimensional precision generates a longer coil for the same nominal thickness than one coming from a conventional cycle and allow the user to minimize machine settings, raising both production and raw material yields.
A CUSTOMIZED PRODUCT
Highly flexible production together with the already-mentioned precision characteristics allow the customer to order coils with customized thickness. Rolling can achieve the exact thickness required by the customer and at the same time optimizes the length of the strip while respecting the tolerances of the product standard.
