Breakthrough in precision alloy manufacturing capacity of Taiyuan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd.

[TISCO's precision alloy manufacturing capacity has made a breakthrough] A few days ago, a partner called the profile plant of TISCO, saying that the precision alloy produced by TISCO this year has been steadily supplied to the manufacturing line of a famous brand mobile phone in China. Profile products have been successfully applied in the communications industry. Precision alloy is a kind of alloy material with special physical properties. it is the key material for the application of important national economic departments such as power electronics, communications, computers, instruments, energy and transportation, as well as aerospace, warships, missiles, radar and other important military equipment.

A few days ago, a partner called the profile factory of TISCO, saying that the precision alloy produced by TISCO this year has been steadily supplied to the manufacturing line of a famous brand mobile phone in China, and the profile products have been successfully applied in the communications industry.

Precision alloy is a kind of alloy material with special physical properties. it is the key material for the application of important national economic departments such as power electronics, communications, computers, instruments, energy and transportation, as well as aerospace, warships, missiles, radar and other important military equipment. Restricted by technical barriers, this kind of products are typical "choking" materials. In the process of actively promoting the development of new materials, the profile Plant of Taiyuan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. cooperates with a domestic material company specializing in smelting precision alloy high-end materials. take the production of materials specially used in radio and electronic industry and precision instruments as a starting point to enter into the field of precision alloy manufacturing.

From December 22 to 24, 2020, coinciding with the critical moment when TISCO joined Baowu, TISCO profile Plant successfully developed three new precision alloy varieties and completed the first order of cooperative production. Over the past year, the new products have been growing and growing, and have won the full trust of customers in key areas and formed long-term orders, which is a microcosm of the core technology of new materials for profile people in Taiyuan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. it is also a generous gift to Baowu's first "Company Day" in China.

Despite the late start of vacuum smelting production and weak technology accumulation, the profile Plant of Taiyuan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. is still determined to find a new way in the manufacture of precision alloys. Since the beginning of the year, with the rapid progress of TISCO as a global leader in the stainless steel industry under Baowu, China, the profile Plant of TISCO has constantly surpassed itself, on the basis of defining the product inspection standards, composition range, surface quality and other standards. Tracking, demonstrating, breaking and solidifying the whole process of each process, such as composition control, refining and tapping temperature, pouring speed, initial and final rolling temperature, deformation and rate of the vacuum smelting link, the scientific process route and accurate process control points are summarized.

After product performance verification and user physical evaluation, this kind of precision alloy material manufactured by Taiyuan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. has made a breakthrough, the finished product rate is significantly better than that of domestic counterparts, and the core index purity and production cost have obvious advantages. In the production link, the whole plant is unified and coordinated, the whole process is carefully controlled, and each process is accurately connected to ensure that 100% of each step of the process is implemented in place; in the product service link, the factory insists on tracking every order issued, in-depth study of every point of feedback, effectively solve every problem of customers, and regard process and technical capability and manufacturing level as the core competitiveness to meet market demand.

Partners take the initiative to say that in the process of collaborative production throughout the year, they have a deep understanding of Baowu TISCO's boutique manufacturing capacity of "people have nothing, people have excellence, people have excellence, people speciality". In 2022, the two sides will further deepen the space for cooperation and work together to achieve better results in the high-end field, which means that new members have been added to the category of high-end materials that Taigang has a stable supply.

High-Grade NPI Smelter Profits Squeezed as Ore Prices Rise and Sales Prices Dip
[SMM Nickel Flash] Based on nickel ore prices from 25 days ago, smelter profits for high-grade NPI remained high this week. However, from the current raw material side, ore prices from both the Philippines and Indonesia increased, while auxiliary material prices saw a slight pullback, leading to an increase in the cash cost of producing high-grade NPI from spot ore. At the same time, high-grade NPI prices experienced some pullback, making it difficult for smelter profits to see sustained improvement.
