Fabricating and processing of wear-resistant equipment

Chromium carbide overlays on 1.5 m x 3 m and 1.8 m x 3 m plates, with additional sizes and customized overlay thickness available upon request. Standard overlays are:

• Single pass: 3 mm or 6 mm overlay on 6 mm plate
• Double pass: 6 mm overlay on 6 mm or 10 mm plate
• Triple pass: 12.7 mm overlay on 12.7 mm plate

SSAB Steel Service Center Santiago is capable of receiving full steel rolls from our mills, converting them into flat plates at our facility. Since enables us to made plates to size, increasing flexibility while reducing scrap.

We can roll heavy-duty wear plate into rounded plate or cylinders as needed. Our equipment features 4 rollers, with the top, alloy-steel roller in 600mm width. The bottom, clamping roller has a width of 650 mm and its side rollers are 560 mm. Rolling speed in 5 meters per minute with an installed power of 150 HP.

• 1 high-definition cutting machine with robotic heads, capable of cutting thickness from 3mm to 65mm.
• CNC Oxycut: 5 straight-cut and bevel-cut oxyfuel machines for cutting thicknesses up to 200 mm and 2 circular machines.
• CNC High-Definition for thickness of 3 mm to 150 mm, plus 2 manual plasma cutters with submerged arc.
• 5 cutting tables, up to 3.5 x 14 mts
• Preheating furnace for increased cutting speeds and reduced thermal stresses. High-speed, 4-burner, 250 Mcal/hour capable of heating 2 steel plates, 2,5 x 4 mts each, in 5 hours

Our 1350-ton press brake is capable of:

• Bending lengths up to 8.1 m
