Metal sheet flattening plants employ various materials and processes to achieve precise flatness and uniform thickness in metal sheets. The primary materials used in these plants include lead, copper, zinc, iron, and steel, with tin occasionally used for coating iron and steel sheets to prevent rusting.
The flattening process involves large rotating iron cylinders that press metal
pieces into flat sheets. While manual hammering can flatten objects with round
outlines like wires, metal
sheet flattening plants typically utilize cold stamping for
better results. There are two main types of metal flattening processes:
Roll Leveling: This process involves passing a metal piece through one or more
pairs of rollers to reduce its thickness and achieve uniformity. Roll leveling
can be performed either hot or cold. After milling or heat treating, the metal
stock is typically flattened outside the mill to minimize waves in the panel.
Press Flattening: This cold forming process utilizes press tools to flatten sheet
metal, shaping and detailing it according to specific requirements. Press
flattening is often requested by customers for thicker slabs or when the slabs
exhibit short-range out-of-plane waves.
