  1. The Manufacturing of Stainless Steel By: Canon Michael Vice

  2. Input • Chrome • Scrap Stainless Steel • Smelting vat • Electrodes • Refining furnace • Argon and Oxygen Gas • A technician • A 75 yard mold • Torches • Pressure washers • Spool that coils

  3. Process • Stainless steel scrap is recycled to be made new. It is fed into a steel furnace along with nickel alloys, huge electrodes melt the metals and after a few hours it is put into a refining furnace. Argon and oxygen is blasted in, removing impurities. A technician checks the temperature often. The melt is poured into a mold and cut into shorter sections with a torch. Rust is pressure washed off the slabs after it sits. The slab is heated up then rolled into a coil, then unrolled into a hot acid watch to clean it again and softens it for further processing and pressed into the customers thickness desired. It is then cut into certain widths and shipped off.

  5. Feedback • Stainless steel has been used since the 1920’s for its very desirable property of not rusting even if it is not polished. It has been used for many things and will continue to be used well into the 20th century.
