ASSAB - UDDEHOLM is a scrap based plant, where after melting,
further refining takes place through ESR (wherever required)
as well as other secondary refining methods. The ingots are
then forged in one of the largest and most modern forging
presses in the world. The steels are microdised using special
techniques to impart high wear resistance and toughness. Micro
alloys are added according to requirements. The forged blocks
are then further forged or rolled according to required dimensions.
On and offline testing instruments guarantee the world class
reputation enjoyed by ASSAB UDDEHOLM. The logistics department
takes care of shipments to daughter companies, exclusive agents
as well as to direct customers. In a year, there are approx.
100,000 shipments worldwide and the quantity per order and
per shipment could be even 50 kgs!
The
research and development in ASSAB UDDEHOLM is a continuous
process and on an average one new grade is introduced every
year.
