Cold Rolled Superfine Steel

Abstract

Aiming to meet new market demands for flat steel, steel companies have been developing new products with special features that allow various adjustments to your application. Our paper is a new product, the superfine steels, its applications, development feasibility and economic aspects. The market for steel furniture for domestic purposes has a great demand for cold-rolled steels, distributed in thick bands, currently between 0.40 mm and 0.70 mm. This segment showed continuous growth in recent years, like the white line, with special focus on the increased consumption presented by the classes C and D, driven by the reduction in Excise Tax (IPI), granted by the federal government in 2009. The proposal is to produce cold-rolled steel with thickness reaching up to 0.25 mm, maintaining the function of the final component to quality and stiffness required. Thinning is a thick white line trend of the world, due to the direct impact on reducing the final cost of the piece, reflecting the competitiveness of customers across the market, and there is a clear need to develop new applications for these materials, not only to the white line, as well as for the mobile industry and metal packaging.
