English to Japanese Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial Aluminum industry

XXXXXXXX has placed an order with XXXXXX for the supply of three scalpers for aluminium ingots.

These will be employed in XXXXXXXX’s Chinese aluminum rolling mills and are designed to meet the specific requirements of each mill, namely for the production of film and strip and for sheet production for the aviation and aerospace industry.

The scalpers will be installed upstream of the hot rolling mill to remove the oxide skin and metallurgical impurities from the outer surface of the ingots.

Scalping is performed in two steps, with the ingots being rotated by 180° between steps. The scalpers are equipped with a horizontal scalping head for the main surfaces and two edge scalping heads for the side surfaces of the aluminum ingots.

The use of the integrated edge scalper reduces the amount of trimming scrap in the subsequent hot rolling process and at the same time prevents soiling of the work rolls in the hot mill. The ****ingot scalper*** is characterised by its high rigidity to guarantee the surface qualities in the micron range even with hard aluminum alloys.
