The main processing methods of steel

The main processing methods of steel are: rolling, forging, drawing, extrusion, stamping and so on.

Rolling: The metal billet through the gap of a pair of rotating rollers (various shapes), due to the compression of the roller to reduce the section of the material, the length of the pressure processing method, which is the most commonly used production of steel production, mainly used to produce profiles, plates, pipes. Cold rolling, hot rolling.

Casting: A pressure processing method that uses the reciprocating impact force of the hammer or the pressure of the press to change the blank into the shape and size we want. Generally divided into free forging and die forging, commonly used for the production of large profiles, billet and other materials with large cross-section size.

Drawing: It is the processing method that has been rolled metal billet (type, tube, product, etc.) through the die hole to reduce the section and increase the length. Most of it is used for cold processing.

Extrusion: is the metal is placed in a closed extrusion sheet, one end of the pressure, so that the metal is extruded from the specified die hole to obtain the same shape and size of the finished product processing method, mostly used in the production of non-ferrous metal materials.
