Analysis on Structure Adjustment of Cold Drawn Steel Industry

Analysis on Structure Adjustment of Cold Drawn Steel Industry

Cold drawn steel refers to the process of stretching steel by tensioning mechanical equipment at normal temperature. Cold drawing produces a cold-strengthening effect. The yield strength of the steel will increase to the unloading stress level. Industrial restructuring and optimization and upgrading are important ways and urgent tasks for transforming economic growth mode and improving the quality of economic growth. The cold drawn steel industry must seize the opportunity to accelerate the adjustment of industrial structure and make the cold drawn steel industry develop soundly. The following six tasks should be done in the adjustment of industrial structure.

We should target the automotive industry to improve supporting capabilities. The automobile industry has made great progress in China in recent years, and its output has grown rapidly. It has become a pillar industry for the development of the national economy and a new economic growth point. The automotive industry needs a large number of cold drawn steel. Steering gears, interior parts, internal combustion engines, bolt screws, fasteners, precision brackets and other large automotive parts are all supplied by cold drawn steel. The development of the cold drawn steel industry must aim at the demand of the automobile industry and support the auto parts, so as to achieve the localization of the auto industry. Therefore, we should produce cold drawn steel products suitable for automotive industry. This is the strategic adjustment of the cold-drawn steel industry. Only by increasing capacity will the cold-drawn steel industry have new room for growth.

With the increasing of modern agriculture development, the agricultural machinery industry will also have great development. Harvesters, seeders, rice transplanters, receiving machines, diesel engines, various pumps and other agricultural machinery components require large quantities of cold drawn steel. So we should study the demand for agricultural machinery, keep up with the development pace of agricultural mechanization and produce new varieties of agricultural machinery steel to improve cold drawn steel development.

In view of the weak links in the current cold-drawn steel industry, we must first strengthen new technologies and innovate the development granularity. It is necessary to attach components to the cold-drawn steel technology R&D department of the R&D institutions of large metallurgical enterprises to strengthen the comprehensive research of one molding technology, promote the mature one-time molding technology, and reduce the repetitive production. Secondly, we should promote the upgrading of cold-drawn steel equipment, and vigorously promote the development and promotion of advanced equipment. In addition, we should increase the introduction of high-level advanced equipment, promote the use of new testing methods and make the cold-drawn steel industry reach a new level of technology, keep up with the pace of national economic development, and create intellectual property rights that are self-existing in China.

In response to the needs of the national economy, to upgrade products, we must first vigorously develop new products. According to the needs of domestic and foreign companies, we should increase the development of new products with multi-section sections. For the elevator guide rails, automobile window gears and high-precision accessories for export products that have been developed, it is necessary to consolidate and promote them. Secondly, we should strengthen the development of cold-drawn steel products for new materials focusing on solving the annealing problem.

We should comprehensively use coal, gas, electric power and annealing means. Different annealing methods hsould be according to different materials to ensure product quality and reduce environmental pollution. It’s important to increase the development and application of rust remover, reduce the cost of rust remover and reduce the dependence on sulfuric acid.

Creating brand products of cold-drawn steel, implementing brand strategy and developing well-known brands with independent intellectual property rights is a major task of structural adjustment of cold-drawn steel industry, which requires serious thinking and exploration in the whole industry.
