Metallurgical Process:
Employing the best steel making technology and processes, Essar Steel plates contain low levels of sulphur, phosphorous and gaseous content. Calcium treatment and inclusion shape control reduces internal discontinuities giving plates improved toughness, enhanced fatigue life, better weldability and excellent shape properties.

TMCP- ADCO/DQ
Thermo Mechanical Controlled Processed (TMCP) with Accelerated Direct Cooling (ADCO) and Direct Quenching (DQ) facilities offer Steel plates with improved abrasion resistance and wear performance, good formability and high tensile strength with high toughness.

Customised Plate:
Equipped with advanced Hydraulic Automatic Gauge Control (HAGC), online Gamma Thickness Gauge and L-2 Automation, Essar Steel can supply steel plates as per actual thickness, width, length and profiles, required for specific projects or applications.

ASTM:
L-2 automation with no manual intervention and a walking beam furnace with a powerful de-scaler ensures that the steel plates are precision manufactured to be supplied with consistency and maintains ASTM tolerances.

Product Range:
Essar Steel offers one of the widest ranges of plate qualities, sizes and grades available anywhere in the world.

High-tech plate mill features with world class processes and ultra modern facilities: 10,000 tonnes of roll separating force Thermo Mechanical Controlled Process with Accelerated Direct Cooling 4,000 tonnes of hot leveller capacity 100% online ultrasonic testing Furnace normalised, quenching & tempering furnaces 1100 to 4950 mm width 5 to 150 mm thickness

Rolling Mill High roll separating force of 10,000 tonnes, almost double compared to some other plate mill -generates extremely fine grain properties on plates. The mill is supported by a fully automatic gauge controller, plan view rolling and flatness gauge to achieve a high degree of profile, even for very thick plates. Thermo-Mechanical Controlled Rolling (TMCR) and Accelerated Direct Cooling (ADCO) Thermo mechanical rolling and DQ (direct quenching) equipped with ADCO facility for high strength plates - can be used in demanding applications for the oil & gas sector and other segments. Hot Leveller A leveling force of 4000 tonnes, generates excellent flatness, zero distortion and an optimally adjusted even surface. The rollers flatten plates up to 1/2 ASTM tolerance. Shearing Units Equipped with different types of mechanical shears such as crop shears, double side cut shears, slitting shears and dividing shears, the Essar Steel plates can be customized to size and widths as specified by the customer. Mechanical cutting as opposed to burning also leads to lesser heat treated zones and better utilization and yield.

The Essar steel plate mill is amongst the finest in the world with one of the widest ranges of plates of excellent strength, durability and shape properties. State-of the-art Technology Equipment Rolling mills, ADCO facilities, roller tables, cooling beds, hot and cold levellers, including automation and control systems Digital reheating furnace Heat treatment facilities covering austenitising and normalising, quenching and tempering furnaces Auto UT testing Shot blasting and painting Roll grinders Digital Reheating Furnaces Equipped with side burners and split into different control zones for uniform heat transfer. The digital furnaces eliminate hot spots and reduce excess scale formation on slab. Supplier Siemens VAI, France

Heat Treatment Heat treatment facility with austentising, normalizing, quenching and tempering to provide desired properties of steel plates. Furnace normalization is done in an inert atmosphere with indirect radiant type heating to ensure no scales are formed on the surface of the plates, leading to a better yield. Quenched & Tempered facilities spray the plates with more than 10,000 cubic metres of water in two minutes. Ultrasonic Testing

100% ultrasonic testing is performed for plates up to 50 mm thickness using an image comparator and without any manual intervention. To keep it perfectly aligned the testing unit is recalibrated every day. Testing of plates above 60mm thickness is done manually by an international third party inspection agency. Marking and Traceability All plates produced at Essar Steel are marked with unique identification mark for traceability using paint marking, mechanical stamping and bar coding.
