    Stainless rolled and forged products

    When it comes to stainless long products,

    SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH has some of the

    world's largest stock at its disposal. In addition

    to the complete range of standard dimensions,

    we offer special articles such as I and I-beam

    sections.

    Not only do we supply conventional bar stock,

    but also semi-finished products and wire rod.

    At SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH all stainless

    rolled and forged products are not only

    obtainable individually cut where requested

    but also as just-in-time deliveries.

    Our stainless hot bars are supplied as ferritic,

    martensitic, duplex or austenitic steel and are

    manufactured according to EN 10088-3/EN

    10272 norms.

    special chemical compositions and a controlled

    production process when producing in our

    own works.

    The process, which becomes especially

    apparent with machinability, guarantees best

    working results for the bright steel grades we

    manufacture.

    Stainless bright bars

    Due to its inherent dimensional accuracy and

    surface quality, stainless bright steel is nowadays

    a preferential choice in the automotive industry

    and for mechanical engineering purposes.

    So as to meet the highest functionality

    requirements, metal cutting or metal forming

    is used to process stainless bright bars into

    ready-to-fit precision parts.

    In addition to rounds, piston rods, squares,

    hexagons, flats and profiles made from stainless

    bright bars, the SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH

    product portfolio also includes stainless bright

    wire which we supply as fine wire, bright wire,

    extrusion wire, cold heading wire and spring

    wire.

    The stainless bright bars SCHMOLZ +

    BICKENBACH supplies are manufactured as

    per EN 10088-3 /EN 10272. For details on

    our materials please see the tables on pages

    SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH commands one

    of the most diverse stock ranges of stainless

    welded beverage tubes, conduits, structural

    and profile tubes available.

    Our central and fully automated high-bay

    warehouse in Dsseldorf has, for example,

    more than 3,200 cassettes. Since every single

    cassette can be partitioned into four, this gives

    us the opportunity to stock several thousand

    items and batches in the most diverse finishes.

    Further cassette storage locations of this kind

    are situated at our other branches, enabling

    just-in-time deliveries at regional level too.

    To round up our extensive portfolio, we also

    offer fixed lengths and grinding services.

    The manufacturi ng of welded cond uits and

    beverage tubes from stainless steel has to

    fulfil extremely high demands during the

    production stage, especially as these kinds of

    tubes are used for the transportation and

    storage of corrosive, inflammable and toxic

    fluids as well as gases and solids.

    Quality and processing requirements made of

    such special steels are especially high when the

    tubes are used for hygienic applications such

    as drinking water installations or equipment

    employed in the food or pharmaceutical

    industries.

    Apart from the quality factor, product diversity

    plays a decisive role and is of importance

    everywhere where tubes fulfil structural or

    decorative roles, such as in architecture or in

    the furniture industry.

    Processing of stainless steel long products

    Among other products, we manufacture shafts

    and axles for processing by the final customer

    in the automotive industry, which are achieved

    by cutting and deburring, or through complex

    end machining such as facing, chamfering and

    centering.

    We offer customized processing in the areas

    of bevelling, drilling, deburring, chamfering,

    milling, facing, polishing, cutting, peeling,

    grinding and centering.

    Processing of stainless steel flat products

    Our surface treatment of sheets up to 1500 mm

    x 4000 mm comprises grinding (grit sizes 80,

    180, 240, 320 or 400), brushing, combined

    grinding and brushing (i.e. 'Duplo') and foiling

    with every usual type of foil.

    We cut and bend sheet up to thicknesses of

    15 mm and to maximum lengths of 6000 mm.

    Our bending press enables us to process flat

    material into U, C and Z profiles. Custom profiles

    are manufactured to customer drawings.

    Flat material up to thicknesses of 15 mm and

    widths of 250 mm can be processed on our

    straightening unit.

    We plasma-cut parts with maximum dimensions

    of 3000 mm x 14000 mm and to a maximum

    thickness of 50 mm using under-water

    technology.

    Any type of processing, such as drilling, milling

    and laser and water jet cutting techniques can

    additionally be offered as special treatment. In

    particular with slitting we are in a position to meet

    virtually any requirement that is technically feasible.

    Processing of stainless steel tubes

    With our fixed length service, which uses

    the most modern saws, we can manufacture

    any length required for round, square and

    rectangular tubes at short notice.

    We miter cut according to your drawings for

    round, square and rectangular tubes.

    On our polishing facilities round, square and

    rectangular tubes can be ground from grit

    sizes between 80 and 600.

    Our polishing service enables tubes to be

    finished in either polished or mirror-polished

    condition.

    So as to manufacture complex shapes, our

    automated hydroforming plant facilitates internal

    high-pressure metal forming (preforming, bending,

    laser cutting, cutting to size and washing).

    Processing service center

    SCHMOLZ + BICKENBACH is not only foremost

    in the production and storage of stainless

    steel but time after time sets standards in the

    quality of the services provided.

    With the employment of state-of-the-art facilities,

    our processing centres enable us to realize

    customized solutions in every area including:

    folding

    bevelling, chamfering and deburring

    in production.

    To maintain the sustainability of our philosophy,

    we continuously optimize our process flows

    and apply the following tools and methods:

    project management and advance quality

    planning

    statistical process control (SPC)

    process analysis and machine capability

    studies

    measurement systems analysis (MSA)

    failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA)

    product, process and system audits

    benchmarking

    8D reports

    first article inspection (in compliance with

    PPAP, VDA and IMDS)
