The following insights will be shared during this presentation:

Integrated Strengths: A Full-Process Solution from Steelmaking to Thin-Gauge Electrical Steel

By integrating clean steelmaking, continuous casting and rolling, advanced annealing and pickling, and highly stable cold‑rolling technologies, Primetals Technologies provides a complete process route that delivers cleaner steel, more efficient casting and rolling, more stable surface treatment, and more reliable cold rolling. This comprehensive approach enhances the production of high‑performance, thin‑gauge electrical steel, making the process greener, more efficient, and more sustainable.

• Clean Steelmaking: Building a solid foundation for high-quality electrical steel
• Castrip^® Thin-Strip Strip Casting: Efficient production of ultra-thin cast strip
• Arvedi ESP: Continuous, efficient, and stable production
• Annealing and Pickling (APL): Clean surface and reliable operation
• Cold Rolling Key Technologies: Enabling thinner, high-grade electrical steel with minimum risk of strip breaks
