Steel comes in different variants depending upon the use. Some variants are heat proof while others are easily mouldable. Some are good for flattened plates while others are good for heavy wear and tear. Depending upon their density and qualities, they are used in different applications. For example, he hardox 450 is wear and abrasion resistant and therefore has ample strength. It is used commonly for dump truck bodies, hoppers and feeders, bulldozers, etc.
Sometimes, clients prefer completely flattened out steel plates. If this flattening is done mechanically, it might make it uneven and even leave residual stress. Therefore that might cause the steel to crack on breaking. At such times, the procedure most commonly used is heat treating steel. There are around seven methods of treating steel with heat. It is mainly used when the properties of the metal need to be changed for different applications.
