  1. Understanding Descaling in Forging

     

    Forging shapes metal under high heat and pressure. However, this process often leaves a layer of scale on the metal's surface. This scale, varying from brittle to sticky, must be meticulously removed before any subsequent operations. Understanding the descaling process is vital for those in the forging industry, particularly for maintaining the quality and integrity of metal parts.

  10. Effective Descaling Techniques for Coils and Plates

    Descaling in the metalworking industry, especially for coils and plates, is a vital process post-lamination. After being subjected to high temperatures during lamination, coils and plates often develop a layer of scale on their surface. This scale, if not removed, can hamper further processing and affect the quality of the final product. While acid bath treatments are commonly used, blasting is essential to maximize scale removal and prolong the life of these acid baths.
