Cold Annealing And Pickling Lines

ANDRITZ METALS supplies custom-tailored cold annealing and pickling lines (CAPL) with or without inline equipment, such as rolling mills (so called DRAP or WRAP lines).

Product description

These lines process stainless steel from the cold rolling mill. Thermal processing is used in order to achieve a soft, uniform metallurgical structure, and subsequent scale removal is conducted in special electrolytic pickling processes (NEOLYTE). Final products may be skin-pass rolled and/or tension-leveled.
