COMPETENCES.

There is always more that can be done.

We unite leading edge technologies with new qualities. For strip steel products - from saws to high-tech components - rolled and heat-treated in leading quality. Innovative profiling and machining. Perfectly prepared for final production.

A distinction is made between steel rolled quickly and steel rolled well - in the homogeneity of the metal structure, and finally in the application behaviour. The same applies to heat treatment. In the ongoing checks of all technical parameters, we at voestalpine Precision Strip prefer cold-rolling more cautiously, and more often. We anneal up to two days to attain perfect material quality. To do this, one of the world′s latest state of the art rolling mills has been installed at the Kematen site.

Leading worldwide standards in bimetal technology - developed by us in-house. Our outstanding longitudinal welding method is used to join metals with different properties - with unbeatable loadability and performance.

Production depth originating from innovational strength - we do not just manufacture your products with greater quality. We also produce them more cost-efficiently. For that purpose we use our extensive range of expertise and system resources for a high production level:
  • Surfaces with high-quality tempering for long working life under harsh conditions
  • Precisely machined edges
  • Homogeneously cold-rolled profiles saving you time and money in subsequent production

The result - saw blades, die-cutting rules, knife blades  and innovative strip steel applications that prove to be technologically and economically superior in practical use.

COOPERATION.-

COOPERATION.

We let knowledge grow. By sharing it.

Knowledge is the only resource that grows when it is shared. For this reason we have several carefully selected partnerships with customers, universities, national and international research associations and of course with some of our fellow companies within the voestalpine group.

A rock-solid knowledge base - that is what makes us successful today. But such a base should not be something to rest on. We know that further development of our abilities is essential - better said, it is crucial - to keep our strong position in this competitive market.

Continuous and long-lasting partnerships
 - this way we do business, this way we do research. We maintain knowledge transfer with leading research partners targeting the one thing that matters most to us: newest developments & innovations.
