Steel-making furnace where scrap is generally 100% of the charge. Heat is supplied from electricity that arcs from the graphite electrodes to the metal bath. Furnaces may be either an alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC). DC units consume less energy and fewer electrodes, but they are more expensive.
Industry:Metals
Pipe made from strips of hot-rolled steel which are passed through forming rolls and welded. While seamless pipe is traditionally stronger and more expensive than comparable ERW pipe, ERW technology is improving and the technique now accounts for approximately 48% of OCTG shipments by tonnage.
Industry:Metals
Cold Rolled or Black Plate to which a coating of zinc is applied by electro-deposition; used for applications in which corrosion resistance and paintability is a primary concern.
Industry:Metals
Cold rolled sheets coated with tin by electro-deposition through an acid or alkaline process.
Industry:Metals
* Light-gauge, low-carbon, cold reduced steel on which tin has been electrodeposited.
* Black plate coated with Tin Sn electron deposition.
Industry:Metals
The process used on stainless steel tubing and fittings to simultaneously smooth, brighten, clean, and passivate the interior surfaces of these components. Electropolishing is an electrochemical removal process that selectively removes a thin layer of metal, including surface flaws and imbedded impurities. Electropolishing is a required surface treatment process for all ultra high-purity components used in the gas distribution systems of semiconductor manufacturers worldwide and many sterile water distribution systems of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
Industry:Metals
The process of shaping material by forcing it to flow through a shaped opening in a die.
Industry:Metals
To work a material into a finished state by machining, forming, or joining.
