YIELD STRENGTH:
THE BACKBONE OF STEEL COIL PROCESSING

This presentation highlights the critical importance of yield strength in our industry. Yield strength determines how a material will react under stress especially when the material transitions from elastic to plastic deformation states. This information is critical in understanding how our machines work and how to operate the machines to get desired results. Through comparisons between mild and HS steel, we explore how yield strength impacts forming, straightening and tooling. Real world examples across industries such as automotive, construction and heavy equipment demonstrate why understanding yield strength isn’t just technical but also a business decision. Choosing the right material and knowing the material can help affect downtime, scrap rates, tooling wear and overall profitability.
