Resumo

With stricter building codes and regulations throughout the world, the increased strength requirements for rebar have pushed production technologies forward. New plants from Primetals Technologies are now configured to allow the ultimate flexibility to produce conventional hot-rolled, quenched & tempered, and low temperature rolled rebar – providing the lowest conversion costs to serve all market demands. Modern high-speed rebar production configures the finishing stands and water-cooling zones to provide these multiple processing routes with optimized mechanical properties. The challenge is to avoid driving a wide range of billet chemistries with the use of high-cost alloying elements.
