Activity Description
The production process of heavy plates includes billet preheating, rough rolling, finish rolling, cooling, and leveling, covering energy consumption, material consumption, waste treatment, and environmental emissions required during the production process.
Process Description
Heavy plate, also known as heavy-duty steel plate, is a type of large-size steel product widely used in industry. These plates typically have a thickness exceeding 20 mm and can be several meters wide, making them suitable for manufacturing large structures and heavy machinery. Due to their dimensions and thickness, heavy plates offer excellent load-bearing capacity and stability, making them ideal materials for large-scale engineering projects and high-load applications. The 20Cr13 stainless steel heavy plate is a type of martensitic stainless steel plate that possesses superior hardness and strength while maintaining adequate corrosion resistance. 20Cr13 stainless steel wide and thick plates exhibit good performance in machining and heat treatment, making them suitable for manufacturing various tools, surgical instruments, valves, pumps, shafts, and other industrial components requiring high hardness and wear resistance.

Technology comment
The wide and heavy plate hot rolling process is a high-temperature processing method that transforms large-sized steel billets into wide and heavy plates. The raw steel billet is heated in a reheating furnace to an appropriate rolling temperature, then enters the roughing mill for initial rolling, during which the billet is pressed into a thicker semifinished product. After roughing, the billet enters the finishing mill stand where it is further rolled to achieve more precise thickness and width dimensions.
