The range of HSMs for the rolling of hot rolled coils has undergone significant changes in the last few decades with minimum thickness of the hot rolled strips has been decreased from 1.8 mm to 2 mm to 0.8 mm to 1.2 mm. The strips of such thickness were earlier produced only in the cold rolling mills.

A, n and α are constants. For the finishing stands of the hot strip mill, this law can be simplified to the so called high stress law, if ασmax >1.2, which states: (3) ɛ σ = 1 α n ( ln ɛ ′ + Q / R T + A ′) Typically, n is of the order of 5 and α ∼0.01, i.e. the strain rate dependence of flow stress (1/ αn) is of the order of 20 N ...

Strip steel with a continuous coil thickness of about 20 mm or less (the maximum thickness is generally 25.4 mm) and with a width less than 600 mm is narrow strip steel, while strip steel exceeding 600 mm is broadband steel. The first hot strip mill was put into production in the United States in 1905 to produce strip with a width of 200 mm.

Input Costs. Key input costs are based on average 2023 world average costs. Ferrous scrap is priced at ~$350/tonne, steel slab at ~$500/t and hot rolled coil is assumed to sell at around $575/tonne [ex-works]. This allows for a small profit close to ~$20/tonne to be made in this specific example.
