Located in the factory area of Shandong Taijia New Material Technology Co., Ltd. in Laiwu District, Jinan City, the stainless steel coils just off the production line are going to Qingdao, where they will be transformed into "coins" of Türkiye.

Türkiye's steel output ranks seventh in the world. What kind of "diamond" does a private enterprise really have, which can take on the "porcelain work" of the coin steel of a steel power? Recently, reporters came here to explore the technological innovation behind a "steel coin".

The challenge of an order

When the reporter walked into Mount Taishan Taijia New Material Technology Co., Ltd. under Shandong Taishan Iron and Steel Group, a 520 meter long stainless steel cold rolling production line was being produced in the 760 meter long workshop, and the whole process was automated. Only six people faced a row of computer screens in the operating room to control each process of steel rolling in real time. According to Chen Pu, the technical manager of the company, coin steel was introduced from here. Currently, the production of 0.48mm thick panel steel is scheduled, and it is processed by a household appliance enterprise in Qingdao and exported abroad.
