Continuous
Pickle Line | Hot Strip
Mill
All products ordered as Hot Rolled Sheet or Hot Rolled
Sheet Pickled receive a temper rolling operation.
The temper rolling process is performed to improve the sheet
flatness, to remove yield point elongation and to impart a uniform
surface on the sheet. For these reasons, applications
requiring good flatness or surface must be temper rolled.
1. Uncoiler
Receives coil from the hot strip mill or pickle line and
unwraps coil for processing through the temper mill.
2. Temper Mill
Rolls the strip with controlled extensions to improve flatness,
remove yield point elongation and provide a uniform surface.
3. Recoiler
Wraps the temper rolled strip into a tight coil with straight
side walls for shipment.
