OREANDA-NEWS.May 05, 2012. Recently, as the 150 mm ultra thick specification high strength and high toughness steel plate passes user authentication and achieves bulk ordering, Baosteel high strength and high toughness steel plate achieves full thickness specification supply. This marks that Baosteel's unique high-end product, high strength and high toughness steel's bulk and stable supply capacity is further enhanced, reported the press-centre of Baosteel. 

High strength and high toughness steel plate is the key heavy plate product independently developed by Baosteel and is mainly used in port machinery, lifting equipment and other machinery manufacturing field. It has features such as low temperature resistance, high strength level, good intrinsic properties, fatigue resistance and adapting to the harsh operating environment After the successful development of this product, Baosteel starts with the production of thick specification and gradually expand to the ultra thick and thin specifications. At present, Baosteel has already been equipped with production capacity of thin, thick and ultra thick specifications and is the only domestic company which can produce full range specification high strength and high toughness steel stably and in bulks.

This time, the full thickness specification supply is an important step in Baosteel's advancing high strength and high toughness steel production stability and technological progress. Especially in the thick and thin specification product development, such as 150 mm special thickness specification, Baosteel heavy plate production, marketing and research team considers the user's needs, does a great deal of analysis and experiment improvement work on product composition optimization, rolling process, heat treatment and leveling process optimization.At the same time, combined with the previous mature heavy plate variety development experience, the team taps and expand heat treatment equipment capacity. After several rounds of verification, the user says that the 150 mm special thickness specification products have met their technical standards and performance requirements and can replace imported products.

At present, around full thickness specification supply of high strength and high toughness steel, Baosteel is setting up the production organization system compatible with the user needs, introduces heavy plate production site process optimization plan, quality control plan, and user service guarantee plan to ensure that long process production organization work carries out smoothly.In addition, Baosteel's production, marketing and research team will also strengthen technical exchanges with users, actively develop and provide users with technical support, keep track of the users' application situation and continuously improve the product quality.

High strength and high toughness steel plate covers the full range of user's needs and achieves full thickness specification supply. Thus, it not only best meet user needs, but also achieves the heavy volume production and it can be described as win-win.In future, Baosteel will also further expand the product specification, variety, and actively promote the full-thickness specification delivery mode to major users, respond and meet users' needs in diversity and multi-range.
