No single production area has a greater impact on productivity and final product quality and than the pickling or milling line. Variations in pickling or milling chemistry can cause unacceptable product variations or surface defects that may necessitate re-working or scraping the material. Non optimized pickling or milling can result in excessive base metal loss and an unnecessary high consumptions of acid, significantly increasing the cost per tonne of finished product.

During production, when the pickling or milling rate decreases a threshold limit, periodic stoppages to dump and replenish the pickling or milling solution is necessary. Unscheduled stoppages to repair or replace mechanical components that fail as a result of improper materials of construction or design unnecessarily reduce production capacity. When it comes to production and economics of pickling or milling, the goal is simple – the greatest production throughput with the lowest specific consumption of acids and the highest quality finish. We offer our customers our experience, knowledge and technology to achieve the most efficient and economical operating pickling or milling line achievable.
