Also, the great importance and application of this product in various industries have led to the observance of international standards in manufacturing this product from year 1 until now, and that is why by increasing the quality of slabs, this product has its market and also been found abroad
Slab cross-section, unlike bloom and billet, is not square but rectangular (usually 230 mm thick, 1.25 m wide, and 12 mm long). Slabs are used to make Steel sheets, plates, and so on.
The importance of manufacturing Aluminum slabs among various steel products cannot be ignored. In addition to the fact that the production of the aluminum slab with world quality has caused us to witness the preparation and manufacture of various steel products with different applications and special brands.
In the Middle east and Iran, different sectors of steel products are active, and to continue their activities, they need to maintain their relationship with the producers of this product and meet their needs. The production of steel products is done in three different sectors. Sponge iron and sometimes scrap iron and casting it in special casting molds, produce products called billets and slabs and then provide the possibility of manufacturing different steel sections using these two products.
Although most of the crude steel production in the world is produced by the blast furnace method, for various reasons, the use of the electric furnace method, especially in Iran, is more justifiable.
This product is also used in the manufacture of steel sheets, plates, and so on. Slabs are also one of the intermediate products used by some steel mills, which are used to produce sheets.
Therefore, machines with special facilities should be used to cut this product. It should also be noted that billets and slabs are the brands of 22 steel products that are used in the manufacture of various types of sections and steel products.
Also, the great importance and application of this product in various industries have led to the observance of international standards in manufacturing this product from year 1 until now, and that is why by increasing the quality of slabs, this product has its market and also been found abroad.
