BOOST YOUR PRODUCTIVITY: COLD WORKING STEELS FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY

In an industry with high productivity demands, it is essential to find a partner with a reliable product and service.

The production of parts for the automotive industry requires high levels of efficiency and productivity. Unplanned downtime for maintenance or tool repair typically leads to high production costs and line stoppages. But how can you mitigate these costs and meet the demands of the automotive industry?

LOCAL STOCK AND EXTENSIVE DIMENSIONAL PROGRAMME

RAMADA AÇOS is focused on guaranteeing rapid deliveries for various steel grades, dimensions and profiles. In this way, our customers are able to save production time and deal with emergencies quickly.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE MATERIALS

Choose materials with high performance and proven quality. RAMADA AÇOS, in partnership with Uddeholm, offers specialised solutions such as: 

>Steels with higher wear resistance, such as Vanadis 8 SuperClean, which reduce part reprocessing and the cost per piece produced. This solution is capable of reaching 64 HRC, guaranteeing high production rates with low levels of wear while maintaining the cutting edge sharpness for extended periods of time.

> Steels with greater shock resistance, such as Caldie and Vanadis 4Extra, which allow more challenging plates to be processed, with a lower risk of cracking or chipping of the tool, ensuring lower maintenance costs and avoiding downtime or even tool replacement. These materials have hardness levels of 60/62HRC, ideal for working with high tensile strength plates (AHSS) and thicker plates.

INTEGRATED SERVICES - ONE STOP SHOP

From product to integrated services: At RAMADA AÇOS, in addition to the material, you can benefit from an integrated solution.

Our Heat Treatment unit has the largest installed capacity of vacuum furnaces on the Iberian Peninsula. With over 50 years' experience, we prioritise speed, competitiveness and reliability of service.

Our team also provides close support and is available to investigate and offer technical solutions to customers, even on their shop floor.
