Baosteel Co., Ltd. independently developed electromagnetic induction special thick plate
The first batch of 350 tons of independently developed electromagnetic induction thick plates by Baosteel Co., Ltd. has been successfully delivered to customers and will be used in the world’s largest single-capacity tidal power generation system — the Xiqiao Chaoshan Power Station in South Korea. This achievement marks Baosteel as one of the few global manufacturers capable of producing such specialized steel plates, showcasing its growing technical expertise and market influence.
Electromagnetic induction thick plates are a new type of high-performance steel designed specifically for modern motor applications. They offer excellent magnetic permeability, significantly enhancing the efficiency of power generation. Their energy-saving and eco-friendly properties align with the latest trends in motor manufacturing technology and have gained widespread international recognition. However, due to their high technical complexity and challenging production process, only a handful of steel companies worldwide can produce them.
In a recent tender for motor equipment, Zhejiang Fuchunjiang Company from China won the contract for 10 units of turbines, with the rotor end plates requiring the use of electromagnetic induction thick plates, totaling approximately 350 tons. Importing such materials would not only be costly but also lead to long delivery cycles, making it difficult to meet the urgent production schedule.
To address this challenge, Baosteel Co., Ltd. formed a cross-departmental team consisting of its manufacturing department, heavy plate factory, sales center, and research institute. By leveraging internal expertise and working collaboratively, they enhanced their R&D capabilities and accelerated the development of the new thick plate product.
The foreign client required the electromagnetic induction thick plates to have exceptional magnetic permeability. Initially, using Baosteel's existing steel grades did not guarantee the necessary mechanical properties. To overcome this, the research team worked through multiple challenges, adjusting the process parameters and optimizing the material composition. Within a short time frame, they achieved successful trial production.
The product performance tests conducted by the foreign party confirmed that all specifications of Baosteel’s electromagnetic induction thick plates exceeded the set standards, with physical properties even surpassing those of imported alternatives. This success not only strengthens Baosteel’s position in the global market but also demonstrates its ability to deliver high-quality, technologically advanced products on time and at competitive costs.
