Further processing information
Mechanical stress
Mechanical stress has a highly negative effect on the
magnetic properties of grain oriented electrical steel.
The strips can become exposed to this type of stress
for a variety of reasons:
external forces (external stresses)
plastic deformation (internal stresses)
Short-time annealing
Laminations are usually subjected to short-time
annealing in a roller furnace. This process takes a few
minutes and requires a soaking time of 1 to 2 minutes
at a maximum temperature of 860 C. Since the lami-
nations are annealed under an air atmosphere, the cut
edges oxidize, thus creating an insulating coating. Any
grease or oil from earlier processing stages is burnt off
and is generally harmless in small quantities.
