Steel wear solutions
Cold Rolling Mill Wear Solutions
Abrasion-resistant liners for scrap and fine material handling.
Cold Rolling Mill
Zone Introduction
Lower temperature, but sharp coil edges → Localized heavy wear.
Handling precision must protect product surface.
How wear happens
Process Description
Coils are stored, transported, uncoiled and recoiled.
Wear behavior:
Even small wear leads to large rejection costs.
- Coil edges strike bins Impact dents
- Coil rubbing on steel Cutting marks
- Scrap falling Abrasive wear
- Vibration Fatigue cracking
