Aichi Steel invests $7 million in Vardhman Special Steel in India


Aichi Steel invests $7 million in Vardhman Special Steel in India
Recently, Japanese special steel manufacturer Aichi Steel Co., Ltd. and India Vardhman Special Steel Co., Ltd. signed a $7 million agreement at a ceremony held in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Vardhman Special Steel announced a new partnership with Aichi Steel Japan, a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan. Aichi Steel will purchase approximately 11.4% of Vardhman Special Steel and provide technical assistance.
The company will be able to supply steel for critical and specific applications in today’s and tomorrow’s automotive industries. Aichi Steel will send three people to India and will continue to provide additional key support from the headquarters. The complementary product portfolio of management, products, technology and services provided by Aichi Steel provide end users with special steels with years of expertise and proven technical support. This will help Vardhman Special Steel expand its size and market in the coming years.
Vardhman Special Steel Vice Chairman and MD Sachit Jain said, “One of the key objectives of our cooperation is to develop special steel grades for Indian car companies to help fill the gaps in the steel substitutes currently being imported. We plan to do this later. A special grade of steel is exported to South Asia and Europe.”
Takahiro Fujioka, President of Aichi, said, “This partnership will help Aichi Steel to improve its quality and cost competitiveness on a global scale, thereby strengthening the foundation of its special steel business. Friends who are in need are indeed friends, Vardhman Special Steel Team is our friend who will support the development of technology-based solutions in the next few years.”
This move by Vardhman Special Steel was carried out after intensive consultations with the Indian Ministry of Steel and hopes to work on the “Made in India” platform, a large-scale project by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This joint project of Vardhman Special Steel and Aichi Steel will also increase the employment market and promote the development of the South Asian steel industry in the next few years.

Study on Cooling Method of SUP9 Spring Flat Steel

Study on Cooling Method of SUP9 Spring Flat Steel Hot rolled spring flat steel bar is mainly used for the automotive industry, and it’s the raw material for automobile leaf spring  manufacturing. The main varieties of spring steel include 60Si2Mn spring steel,  SUP9 spring steel flat bar , 55SiMnVB spring steel. SUP9 spring steel flat bar is produced in accordance with the Japanese standard. At present, many leaf spring manufacturers mostly use SUP9 spring steel as the raw material for manufacturing automotive leaf springs. Compared with 60Si2Mn, SUP9 spring steel has good hardenability and low decarburization tendency, so the mechanical properties and fatigue properties of the leaf springs produced with SUP9 spring steel are better than that of 60Si2Mn steel. However, due to the good hardenability of  SUP9 steel , the hardness is often too high during actual rolling production and cooling. The reheating, quenching and tempering treatment are carried out in...

Crane rails selection

  How to make crane rail selection Crane rails selection Crane rail  includes special rails, railway rails, square rails, and P-rails. In general, small and medium-sized Cranes use P-rail, while large cranes use Qu crane special rail or square rail. Crane rail selection depends on the diameter of the wheel. Crane rail selection table is below: Wheel diameter 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 Crane rail / / / / / QU70 QU70 QU80 Railway track P15 P18 P24 P38 P38 P43 P43 P50 Square rail 40X40 50X50 60X60 80X80 80X80 90X90 90X90 100X100 P-rail 40 50 60 70 80 90 90 100 The number after Qu represents the rail surface width of the track. The number after P represents the theoretical weight per meter.
