Sarclad - Multi Servo Array for Automotive Panel Roll Texturing
The Rolltex Multi Servo Array (MSA) from Sarclad is an advanced Electro-Discharge Texturing (EDT) solution. Catering to surface critical strip applications, such as automotive external panels, the MSA ensures precise roll texture control. A significant advancement over standard EDT technology, the MSA features customizable electrode arrays, with a 72-electrode machine deployed at ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel's plant and a 36-electrode version at Steel Dynamics Inc. These electrodes function collaboratively to prevent banding issues, offering a leap in accuracy and consistency for surface texturing. Its robust design allows it to adapt to the demanding environments of flagship steel and aluminum plants, allowing them to optimize production of surface-critical materials. The MSA's efficiency and performance deliver considerable long-term cost benefits while providing the flexibility for future capacity expansion.
