Gleeble webinar - Episode 47

Physical Simulation Technology at Ansteel using the Gleeble as an Efficient Platform for Material Research
Presenter: Dr. Baochun Zhao
Iron and Steel Research Institute of Angang Group
Dr. Baoshun Zhao from the Iron and Steel Research Institute of Angang Group will review how Ansteel utilizes their various Gleeble systems to simulate and optimize their manufacturing processes. The Gleeble is used to develop new products as well as develop new processes including continuous casting, reheating, optimizing mill capacity, rolling and cooling.
Ansteel operates three Gleeble systems including a Gleeble 1500 installed in the 1980s as well as two much newer Gleeble 3800 systems equipped with a Hydrawedge and MaxStrain. Ansteel is also utilizing an Induction Heating system on one of the Gleeble 3800 units. Dr. Zhao will review five case studies where the Gleeble was involved in solving real-world challenges.
