ANNEALING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026487 titled 'ANNEALING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for manufacturing a steel sheet using a device that includes a pre-heating section, a heating section with a maximal heating rate, and a soaking section with a calibrating step, recrystallization annealing, soaking, and coating steps. The calibration step helps define a lower dew point to achieve a predefined quality target.
- The method involves a multi-step process for manufacturing a steel sheet.
- The device used in the process includes a pre-heating section, a heating section, and a soaking section.
- The heating section has a maximal heating rate, which ensures efficient heating of the steel sheet.
- The soaking section includes a calibrating step, which helps determine a lower dew point for achieving a specific quality target.
- The process also involves recrystallization annealing and coating steps to further enhance the quality of the steel sheet.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Manufacturing of high-quality steel sheets for various industries such as automotive, construction, and manufacturing.
- Production of steel sheets with specific properties and characteristics required for specific applications.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Ensures the achievement of a predefined quality target by calibrating the dew point during the soaking section.
- Provides a method for efficient heating of the steel sheet using a maximal heating rate in the heating section.
- Enhances the quality of the steel sheet through recrystallization annealing and coating steps.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved quality control in the manufacturing process by defining a lower dew point and achieving a predefined quality target.
- Increased efficiency in the heating process through the use of a maximal heating rate.
- Enhanced properties and characteristics of the steel sheet through recrystallization annealing and coating steps.
