     Steel plate is one of the four major varieties of steel (plate, pipe, type, and wire). In developed countries, the output of steel plate accounts for more than 50% of the total steel production. With the development of my country's national economy, the production of steel plate is gradually increasing.

   A steel plate is a flat steel material with a large aspect ratio and surface area. Steel plates are divided into two specifications: thin plate and thick plate according to their thickness.

   Thin steel plate is a steel plate with a thickness between 0.2-4mm produced by hot rolling or cold rolling. The width of the thin steel plate is between 500-1400mm. According to different purposes, thin steel plates are rolled from billets of different materials. Commonly used materials include ordinary carbon steel, high-quality carbon steel, alloy structural steel, carbon tool steel, stainless steel, spring steel and silicon steel for electrical purposes. They are mainly used in the automobile industry, aviation industry, enamel industry, electrical industry, machinery industry and other sectors. In addition to direct delivery of thin steel plates after rolling, there are also pickling, galvanized and tin-plated types and types.

   Thick steel plate is a general term for steel plates with a thickness of more than 4mm. In actual work, steel plates with a thickness of less than 20mm are often called medium plates, steel plates with a thickness of >20mm to 60mm are called thick plates, and steel plates with a thickness of >60mm need to be processed in a special It is rolled on a special thick plate rolling mill, so it is called extra thick plate. The width of thick steel plate is from 0.6mm-3.0mm. Thick plates are divided into shipbuilding steel plates, bridge steel plates, boiler steel plates, high-pressure vessel steel plates, checkered steel plates, automobile steel plates, armor steel plates and composite steel plates according to their uses.

   A branch of the steel plate is the steel strip, which is actually a very long thin plate with a relatively small width, often supplied in coils, also known as strip steel. The steel strip is often produced on a multi-stand continuous rolling mill, and the steel strip is cut into a fixed length, so the productivity is higher than that of a single sheet mechanism.
