Walzen Strips Pvt. Ltd.
Walzen Strips Pvt. Ltd. manufactures ZENHARDR,
Hardened & Tempered Steel Strips, conforming to National and International Standards viz, IS: 2507, DIN 17222. BS: 1449, ASTM A-682. High Carbon Low Alloy hardened and tempered steel strips is produced in-house from cold rolled steel strips and heat-treated in continuous line to develop high hardness, toughness to achieve required spring properties.
Steps involved for manufacture of Hardened & Tempered Steel strips:
Austenitizing of Medium & High Carbon and Low Alloy steels is carried out in 12 M long gas fired furnace with automatic controls and heat resistant S.S. Muffle to provide inert cover to the strips. Quenchingl in oil produces very hard martensite, which is then tempered down in a 7 M long electrically heated tempering furnace. Variable speed DC drive with UPS back-up ensures uninterrupted processing even during power failure.
Edge rounding
Hardened and tempered strips are also available in rounded edges for special applications and for high fatigue life. This is done by machining of edges with profiled carbide tips.
Grinding
Hardened and tempered strips are available in bright polished surface by grinding the surfaces with waterproof coated abrasive belts in strip grinding machine with coolant flow.
