Stainless steel plate is a commonly used metal material. Its main components are iron, chromium, nickel and other small elements. It has good corrosion resistance, high strength and plasticity. It is widely used in construction, shipbuilding, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing, etc. field. The production process of stainless steel plate is mainly divided into cold rolling and hot rolling. The following will introduce their characteristics and application scenarios respectively.

Cold-rolled stainless steel plate

Cold-rolled stainless steel plate refers to pressing stainless steel raw materials into a plate shape at room temperature, without heating during the pressing process, and usually adopts multiple rolling and quenching treatments to improve the strength and hardness of the plate. The special nature of the cold rolling process makes the cold rolled stainless steel plate have good surface quality, high dimensional accuracy and strong corrosion resistance. At the same time, the cold-rolled stainless steel plate has high hardness and strength, which can meet some high-demand applications, such as the occasions that need to withstand large forces and impact loads. In addition, cold-rolled stainless steel sheets can also be further processed and surface treated, such as cutting, punching, bending, polishing, etc., to meet different usage needs.

Hot rolled stainless steel plate

Hot-rolled stainless steel plate refers to the pressing of stainless steel raw materials into plate shape at high temperature, usually by one-time rolling and subsequent annealing treatment. Compared with cold-rolled stainless steel sheets, the production cost of hot-rolled stainless steel sheets is lower, but the surface quality and dimensional accuracy are slightly lower, and the corrosion resistance is relatively poor. However, the strength and plasticity of hot-rolled stainless steel sheets are superior to those of cold-rolled stainless steel sheets, so they are often used in occasions that need to withstand higher forces and impact loads, such as building structures and shipbuilding.

The application field of stainless steel plate

Stainless steel plate has the characteristics of strong corrosion resistance, high strength, good plasticity, high dimensional accuracy, smooth surface, etc., and is widely used in construction, shipbuilding, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing and other fields.

1. Construction field

Stainless steel plates are widely used in construction fields, such as architectural decoration, building structures, roofs and walls, etc. In architectural decoration, stainless steel plates can be used for indoor and outdoor decoration, such as stainless steel mirror panels, stainless steel checkered plates, stainless steel perforated plates, etc., which can create high-end and beautiful visual effects, and also have excellent corrosion resistance and Easy to clean features. In building structures, stainless steel plates are mainly used to manufacture columns, beams, rubber pads and other components, which can withstand large loads and impact loads, and also have good corrosion resistance, prolonging the service life of buildings.

2. Ship field

Stainless steel plates are also widely used in shipbuilding, such as hull structures, ship equipment, ship piping, etc. The stainless steel plate has good seawater corrosion resistance, which can meet the requirements of corrosion resistance in ship construction, and its strength and plasticity can also meet the requirements of hull structure and equipment. In addition, stainless steel plates can also be used to manufacture pipes, valves, pump bodies and other equipment, which can resist corrosion, high temperature and high pressure and other harsh environments, and prolong the service life of equipment.

3. Chemical field

Stainless steel plates are also widely used in the chemical industry, such as manufacturing reactors, evaporators, pipelines, storage tanks and other equipment. Chemical equipment needs to be able to withstand extreme environments such as corrosive substances and high temperature and pressure, so it needs to have excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance. As a metal material with excellent corrosion resistance, stainless steel plate can exert its unique advantages in chemical production and prolong the service life of equipment.

4. Machinery manufacturing field

Stainless steel plates are also widely used in the field of machinery manufacturing, such as manufacturing precision instruments, machine tools, auto parts, home appliances, etc. Stainless steel plate has the characteristics of high dimensional accuracy, smooth surface and good wear resistance, which can meet the requirements of high precision and high quality in mechanical manufacturing. It also has good corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, and can also be used in harsh environments. Maintain a long service life.

5. Food processing field

Stainless steel plates are also widely used in the field of food processing, such as manufacturing food machinery and equipment, food processing utensils, tableware, etc. Stainless steel plate has good corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, which can ensure the hygiene and safety in food processing, and also has good aesthetic performance, which can improve the grade of food processing equipment and tableware.

To sum up, stainless steel plate is a widely used metal material with good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, wear resistance and high dimensional accuracy. It is widely used in construction, shipbuilding, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing, food processing and other fields have a wide range of applications. In addition, the production process of stainless steel plates is also constantly innovating and developing. In the future, with the continuous advancement of technology and continuous improvement of technology, the performance of stainless steel plates will be further improved, and the scope of application will continue to expand.
