4. Annealing Following the cold rolling process, the steel strips may require annealing. This heat treatment process relieves internal stresses that develop during cold rolling, restoring ductility and reducing hardness. The annealing process can be performed in a continuous furnace where the steel strip is heated and then gradually cooled.
4. Efficiency in Production The movement of the roller, combined with the rotation of the die, allows for a continuous process where materials are fed in and pellets are produced at a steady rate. This efficiency is vital for commercial operations aiming to maximize production output.
