The diagram provides a visual representation of the manufacturing process for steel rods used in the furniture industry.
The process involves eleven consecutive steps, starting from the initial processing of raw materials and concluding with a rigorous inspection of the finished product.
The steel rod manufacturing process begins by combining raw materials such as iron ore, yellow ore, and carbon in a container. This mixture is then melted at extremely high temperatures, ranging from 1300 to 1500 degrees Celsius and the molten material is transferred to a smelting cabin for purification. In the next phase, the refined metal is poured into an ingot mold. This ingot is then cooled and transformed into strands through a nozzle-based process.
The temperature of the metal is reduced to between 60 and 100 degrees Celsius during this stage also these cooled metal strands are rolled and reheated. After that, the metal rods undergo automated surface inspections. Once measured, the rods are cut to the required length using a cutting machine. Subsequently, these standardized rods are stamped. The final production stage involves a thorough inspection before the product is released for distribution.
