Flattening

Efinox has 3 flattening machines of different types:
– Cold-rolled flattening machine with in-line trimming, a state-of-the-art plant that capable of flattening thicknesses between 0.4 and 3 mm.

– Cold-rolling flattening machine capable of flattening thicknesses between 0.5 and 3 mm, maximum width 1500 mm and up to 8500 mm in length.

– Hot-rolled levelling machine, capable of levelling thicknesses between 3 and 10 mm maximum width 2000 mm up to a maximum length of 12000 mm

Flattening is a simple and fast process for obtaining flat and tension-free sheets to size, which simultaneously allows high savings and an optimal end product while avoiding subsequent treatments.

Flattening is highly recommended to avoid the well-known problems in some coil. coil processing such as cutting, profiling, stamping and blanking. Plates coming out of the rolling lines often present a number of defects, generally generally attributable to widespread non-planarity phenomena.

During cutting, the internal tensions of the starting material are released causing visible deformations, so the flatness of the material becomes of major importance for obtain a high quality end product without subsequent steps and therefore additional costs.

WHICH COIL DEFECTS CAN BE REDUCED USING THE LEVELLER

Centre bubble, Both sides wavy, One side wavy, Large bubble in the centre, Centre bend, Twisted strip, Curvature produced by rounding.
