Carbon Steel Plate Lamination Ⓡ

CARBON STEEL PLATE LAMINATION:

*Carbon steel plates are manufactured by hot or cold rolling thick slabs.

*During this process, the carbon steel may pass through the rollers multiple times to achieve the desired thickness.

*Discontinuities present within the metal (such as porosity or inclusions trapped within the slab) extend in the rolling direction, forming a laminate within the metal sheet.

*High concentrations of oxides and sulfides in carbon steel can cause pores to migrate from the outside of the slab to the center as it cools.

*Inclusions remain in the center during the subsequent hot or cold rolling process, and the two layers of metal separate (laminate) at the end of the rolling process.
