Stainless steel embossed plate is produced by mechanical embossing on stainless steel sheets, creating a textured surface with raised and lowered patterns. It began in small batches at European large-scale rolling mills in the early 1960s and gained popularity across various industries due to its excellent corrosion resistance and anti-slip properties. The initial embossed plate designs featured a crisscross pattern of horizontal and vertical stripes. Over the next 20-30 years, researchers developed better anti-slip designs through continuous experimentation and improvements. Now, these advanced designs are produced and applied on a large scale. In recent years, the applications of stainless steel embossed plates have been continuously innovating, breaking through, and changing, with an increasing number of industries and product models adopting them, and the pace of product upgrades and replacements has also accelerated.
Production Process of Stainless Steel Patterned Plates:
A category is produced by steel mills through rolling in rolling mills during the production of stainless steel. These products mainly range in thickness from 3-6mm, and are in the heat-treated and pickled condition after hot rolling. The process is as follows:
Stainless steel billet → Hot-rolled strip through a hot-rolling mill → Heat treatment and pickling line → leveling machine, straightening machine, polishing machine → cutting line → Hot rolled stainless steel patterned plate, with one side flat and the other with patterns. This type of plate is commonly used in industries requiring strength, such as chemical engineering, railway vehicles, platforms, etc.
Category two includes processing enterprises in the market, which purchase hot-rolled or cold-rolled stainless steel sheets from steel mills. These sheets are then mechanically stamped into patterned plates, featuring one concave and one convex side. They are commonly used in general civil decoration. Cold rolling is more prevalent in this category, with most 2B/BA cold-rolled stainless steel patterned plates in the market falling under this type.
