Tensile test in thickness direction – the Z-test simply explained
What is a tensile test in the thickness direction and when is a Z-test necessary? Find out how the Z-value increases the safety of steel
Maximum precision meets maximum wear resistance – with the combination of laser cutting and Creusabro®, UnionStahl is setting new standards in the machining of highly stressed components. Thanks to state-of-the-art laser cutting technology, precise cuts are produced with minimal heat-affected zones and maximum dimensional accuracy. Especially in recycling, mechanical engineering, mining and civil engineering, companies benefit from durable, precisely fitting components that can be further processed immediately.
Creusabro® boasts outstanding properties such as self-hardening under load and high temperature resistance, making it ideal for precise laser cutting. UnionStahl also offers further processing options such as weld seam preparation, drilling and machining – for ready-to-install solutions from a single source. Find out why this combination is unbeatable for industrial applications.
