The finishing department<br />
straightener<br />
The next stage is the finishing department – the sections, which can be up to 100 m long, cool<br />
down on a walking beam cooling bed – until a temperature of about 80°C is reached – before<br />
being straightened in a 9-roll-straightener. This reduces the stresses <strong>with</strong>in the material caused<br />
by the cooling process.<br />
Then the sections are cut on a cold saw plant, consisting of 3 saws, to get the length requested<br />
by the customers. Lengths from 5 m up to maximal 28 m are possible.<br />
